IMO, maybe it's time to have a collaboration with NY designers? I would love to see a collaboration with Proenza Schouler. Those boys are really talented.
GIVENCHY has denied that it is collaborating with H&M on an affordable collection, despite "false" rumours to the contrary. Online speculation emerged late last night to suggest that the French fashion house was next in line to team up with the high street chain. H&M declined to comment this morning.
The partnership wouldn't have been entirely unlikely - Riccardo Tisci designed a capsule collection for US budget store Target back in 2009, and at the time confirmed to New York Magazine that a future line for H&M was a possibility; ("Maybe one day, yes.")
Part of me wouldn't be surprised if Burberry collaborated with them... since (aside from Stella) all of the designers are from independent houses that aren't linked so drastically to other houses like at LVMH or PPR for instance...

I'm not sure if it's Target or H&M...but I heard the next collaborative wok will be with Hermes. No joke. A good friend of mine works at the Hermes boutique in San Francisco.
The rumored Hermes "collaboration" is with Rei Kawakubo.
I have a good feeling H&M's next collaboration will be with Dolce & Gabbana. Makes the most sense in my opinion.
i've been thinking about this and logical choices for me based upon the designers personalities and outlooks seem to be dolce & gabbana, moschino, marc jacobs, giles, dsquared, or jean paul gaultier
Marc wouldn't do it - he has Marc by Marc Jacobs which essentially would land at almost the same price point. I can't see there being much point to it?
DSquared wouldn't interest H&M I don't think, they're after bigger fish.
