I do like a lot of the pieces but I think they should've put a price limit on it - some of it is way too expensive. The whole point of designer-high street collaborations is to bring designer attention to detail, beauty of design etc to an audience who can't afford the real deal. By charging £150 for a jumpsuit they are completely ignoring the whole purpose of the collaboration. It's not even like there are only a couple of pieces that are expensive, a lot of it is much more than the average person who usually shops at H&M can afford.

the whole thing is up on the website now where you can look at the prices etc i don't think they're as bad as i expected. for example, the clutch for £35 is good. and the peacock dress is £50 (may get that)

does anyone know what stores this will be available in???

Damn! I liked the leather jacket, but wouldn't spend $250 on it. They'll probably all be sold out so quickly so there's no way I could get it on sale. Plus people will be selling the jacket on ebay for $300-500.

For once I feel good about living in Norway, last time I think there were 3 or 4 stores with the limited collection.

I'm not crazy about this collection tbh, the only things I like are the royal blue silk blazer, the pink silk shorts and the wide studded belt. The patterned dresses all look kinda cheap to me.
I certainly won't be waiting in front of the stores at the opening...

WHY is all this so expensive? You can get lots of better clothing for that much money, and of much greater quality than anything H&M does...
