My style-My look

Love this mirror in PRADA boutique. I was in a classy mood that morning, girlish and playful!
Do you like my look?

I am wearing a MNG shirt, which I monogrammed, ZARA skirt, H&M tie and one of my favorite shoes this season- MIU MIU glitter boots.

And the next H&M designer collaboration is…wait for it…Maison Martin Margiela!? We never saw this one coming.
According to WWD, H&M will announce a one-off holiday collaboration with Maison Martin Margiela “soon.” H&M has neither confirmed nor denied the collab, saying, “We never comment on rumors,” but we’re hoping this one happens, if only to see what fans wear when they inevitably line up for it days in advance. Plus, we trust WWD‘s sources.
The Swedish retailer’s past collaborations have included Versace, Lanvin and Karl Lagerfeld to name a few–brands with instant name recognition and obvious mass appeal. But H&M seems to be taking an edgier turn lately. Its last collaboration with Marni was more conceptual than previous collabs–Consuelo Castiglioni’s tricky prints and boxy shapes aren’t usually the stuff of mass retailers. And H&M is heading into even more avant-garde territory with this latest rumored collaboration.
Margiela’s collections are known for unusual tailoring, some deconstruction, and architectural shapes. Fashion people love Margiela, so we’ll be watching this one carefully to see how it translates to mass. It’s worth noting that Margiela has a contemporary line, MM6, so the design team has experience designing for a younger, more mainstream customer and at a lower price point.
The other unusual aspect of this collaboration is that there’s no designer “face” to the collection. Past H&M collaborators have all actively promoted their lines with the fast fashion retailer (remember Donatella Versace’s press blitz for her line for H&M?), but a design team creates the Margiela collection since its notoriously publicity-shy founder left the house in 2009. If this line does really happen, it will be interesting to watch how they promote it. It’s ripe for an arty fashion film with some quirky ingenue.
Ed. note: As some folks on Twitter and Facebook have pointed out, doing a mass collab seems antithetical to everything Margiela is about and would take away from its special-ness and its in-the-know niche status (Danica Lo just retweeted at us, “This hurts my soul”)…do you agree?
Will you be standing online?

Lana Del Rey: H&M's New Face!

H&M announced today that the classically beautiful songstress Lana Del Rey will be the new model for their fall campaign. WWD unveiled the retro-looking ads, which show the singer in a pale pink angora sweater, peach pants, faux-diamond chandelier earrings and big hair. "The mood is very L.A. noir," said Donald Schneider, H&M’s creative director. "It’s inspired by our fall collection."
The "Video Games" singer – who already has a Mulberry handbag named after her – was shot by renowned photography duo Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. "We were looking for a style icon and singer to model our fall collection and so Lana Del Rey was the perfect choice," Chloe Bowers, H&M Public Relations Manager, told Grazia Daily this morning. "The theme of the campaign is a modern and feminine woman with a soft attitude. Curves and waist are important in autumn’s silhouette with a focus on knitwear and tweed. The colors include powder tones and accessories in wine red."
According to Grazia, Lana also performed a cover of "Blue Velvet" for a mini-film that will be released on H&M's website on September 19th.

It's Official: Maison Martin Margiela For H&M Will Be Sold Online!

Apparently, they can! An official statement by H&M and Margiela came through this morning that yesterday's rumors are indeed true. The announcement is just as delightfully weird as we'd hoped too, with Margiela sending through a typical Curriculum Vitae in lieu of a press release, including Maison Martin Margiela's values & ideas ("ANONYMITY, WHITES, AMBIGUITY"), philosophy ("THE WORK OF THE GROUP RATHER THAN OF ONE DESIGNER*") juxtaposed against H&M's ("FASHION AND QUALITY AT THE BEST PRICE" and "FASHION FOR ALL"). The collab will be available this November 15 in 230 stores and online (finally we have a timeline for when that's going to happen, too!). Says the house of Margiela, "The democracy of our fashion has always been at the centre of our creativity, and the collaboration with H&M allows us to push this instinct further. We will bring together the contrasting universes of the two houses in ways that will surprise all." For Margiela novices, expect to see lots of basic (but impeccably cut) black and white shirts, skirts, pants, and sweaters. More hard-core fans should expect lovely suiting, creepy photo-prints, and statement shoes. Now, for Kanye's sake, let's hope they make jackets, too.

Marni x H&M

H&M‘s collaboration with Marni is, in my opinion, their best yet. Honestly, March 8 can’t come soon enough . . . I want it all!

FOR H&M RULES

Posted by Holly Hobkirk on Nov 15, 2011 in Fashion | 0 comments

With the release date of Versace for H&M fast approaching, we thought it were about time that you learnt their shopping rules.
With the collection expected to sell out at a lighting rate, H&M have released a guide of how to shop it- make sure you have a read to avoid disappointment!
‘The first 280 in line will receive one of 14 different colored bracelets, 20 people for each bracelet color. On the bracelet you will be given a specific time for shopping in our designated area. The bracelets are only needed for our women’s collection. Customers buying the men’s collection will not require a bracelet. When your time slot arrives, you will enter the designated area to shop for 15 minutes. Our goal is to create a better shopping experience for all of our customers.
If you are not one of the first 280 in line, you will of course have the opportunity to shop from the men’s collection or within H&M. When the 14 groups have finished their shopping we will open up the women’s collection to all of our customers.
To make sure as many customers as possible are able to buy from the Versace for H&M collection, we have a shopping limit. Every customer can buy from the entire collection, but with a limit of purchasing a maximum of two pieces per product, ie not more than two sizes (shoes/garments) or pieces (accessories) per product per customer. The shopping limit covers the entire Versace for H&M collection. Your place in line does not guarantee any items from the Versace for H&M collection.’

H&M Versace in stores November 18th

After seeing the first sneak peek of Vogue Russia and the first Official Ad Campaign, here comes the second part where we see new clothes and even, finally, some creations dedicated to the man.

In the first picture we see the beautiful Daphne Groeneveld dress with a full metalic Dress, very nice, tight at the waist by a belt that does not seem to be very attractive.
Probable price: € 189.
In the second picture, we find the model Lindsey Wixson wearing a total silk dress, we've already seen in this Sneak peek. Of course, lights and effects are totally different, we also can see a pair of ultra Shicking Pink shoes.
Probable price: € 119.

New Pictures:

That's AMAZING. Pic from IKSYDK

Finally something has managed to leak out for the men's department, which will include a total of 20 proposals while the female will have a total of 40.
Leather jackets with geometric patterns very Versace Style, all also be found on shorts and even socks.
A full Pink suit, a jacket with a print that depicts the sea and palms, combined with a leopard on the strength of the green and also a new outfits with an original optical Effect.
The model is Viiperi River and all the pictures of the Ad Campaign are taken by Mert & Marcus (who I adore).

Men also are very interesting proposals, some quite excessive and other valuable. However I think that really needs to have the opportunity to verify their quality.
The possibility that these dresses are very beautiful to view but bad to the touch is really high.
From these photos, what is your favorite piece, both for women than for men?

Frida Gustavsson: H&M W '11

Swedish fashion model Frida Gustavsson is smart, sleek and sophisticated for the H&M Fall/Winter 2011 Campaign lensed by the acclaimed photographer Andreas Sjodin. Frida wears the trendy and modern designs of box jackets and shirts, colour blocking leggings, knitted sweaters and simple shoes.

H&M is actually a volcano of ideas, we are still waiting for the VERSACE capsule collection, but we already know that David Beckham will have its own Underwear collection in collaboration with the most famous low cost chain H&M and it will be officially launched in February 2012.
