This collection demonstrated his masterful use of opulent textures, from luxurious velvet and jacquard to intricate embroidery and layering, setting a new standard for luxury menswear. The color palette was striking, featuring deep jewel tones - emerald greens, royal blues, and burgundies that evoked a sense of elegance and mystery.

Ackermann’s designs for FW15 displayed a bold approach to silhouettes as well. Long, flowing coats with rich detailing, oversized yet tailored trousers, and structured blazers provided a sense of effortless sophistication.

The collection also revealed Ackermann's talent for creating a mood of melancholic grandeur. With each look, he transported the audience into a world where fashion becomes a form of storytelling - where every color, fabric, and drape expressed a piece of his artistic vision. His FW15 show is remembered as a defining moment that captured the essence of luxury, freedom, and individuality, leaving a lasting impact on fans, collectors, and the fashion industry at large.
