Margiela for H&M





I went to check out the new Margiela for H&M collection and I was pretty impressed with how cool this collection was in comparison with previous collaborations like Versace and Marni. In the United States H&M made the collection available in 40 stores nationwide with is a significantly larger amount than previous collections like Marni, which was only available in 26 stores nationwide. The Margiela for H&M collection can be found at all 11 Manhattan locations. When I visited the H&M location on 86th and lexington a few days after the launch I was pleased and somewhat surprised to see that they still had almost all of the pieces of the collection still in stock. "Women's Wear Daily" reported that H&M saw a smaller turnout for the collection than expected. The first two items to sell-out were the candy wrapper clutch for $59.95 and the white high-top sneakers for $129. My favorite pieces from the collection were the nude long-sleeved bodysuits with a black padded bra applique for $39.95, all of the leather shoes with plastic angular wedge heels for $299-$399, and the leather necklace with strands of rhinestones in varying length for $59.95. If you haven't already gone to look at this collaboration I would make your way to one of the participating locations before it is too late.
