H&M Guest Designer Collaborations

As many of you know, the most recent Guest Designer for H&M is Lanvin. This amazing video with his new affordable collection is spread all around the web and it promises a wonderful collaboration. I really love the dresses at 0:33,1:00, 1:38 and the coat at 3:25! Its really a promising collection and I'm looking forward to it!




This is not the first collaboration from H&M with a guest designer. It started 6 years ago, with Karl Lagerfield, who we all know as THE designer of Chanel. His collection was dominated by black and had his face on the clothes (one of the first times Karl used himself on the clothes he designed). We all know that that isn't a new thing anymore, because his face and name appear on bags, ties and even on coca cola bottles!






After him a lot of other designers followed. Stella McCartney was the Guest Designer in 2005, while our dutch pride, the duo Viktor & Rolf, were the next ones in 2006 who had the opportunity to collaborate with H&M.



Popstars designed for H&M as well. Madonna and Kylie Minogue both starred in 2007.


Designer who shouldnt be left out in the list are the wonderful Roberto Cavelli, Commes des Garcons, Matthew Williamson and of course Sonia Rykiel.



I think one of the last ones was the most popular one: Jimmy Choo. Yes, I was also in love with the faboulous heels. I'm still regreting the fact that I did not buy those beautiful black ones in the picture below.. They are way to beautiful...


Who will follow? I'm secretly hoping for Balmain or Alexander Mcqueen, who can toughen H&M a bit up, but a more femimine collection like ChloƩ would be great too. Or Acne? Wouldn't it be great to buy their wedges, but than a bit cheaper then the current price of 450-500 euros? There are enough options so let's hope for yet again a beautiful new H&M collection!





This but affordable?
