hmm I'm just thinking of the queues outside the London flagship store. Not really wanting to be in that stampede when the doors open!

I wouldn't rely on that. The average English H&M customer wouldn't go for Comme but then the people that usually shop designer and not H&M, they'd probably go and they'd probably buy the whole collection because they can afford it!

I don't have classes thursday until 12:30

I'll just have to drag myself up earlier, assuming the collection comes here

[loverunway]

Ugh you guys are so lucky! I'm thinking of skipping school but then again I think that's really bad just in the name of shopping haha. Maybe I'll fake being ill. :/ hmmm.

Does anyone know ANYTHING about the price range?I want to know how much the coat is going to be. It's probably the most expensive part of the collection!

i was in a curious mood today so after browsing around h&m decided to ask one of the sales assistants if they had any information on the collection yet, due to the confusion on her face, the fear in her eyes for not knowing the answer to my question "excuse me do you have any information on the comme de garcons collection?" at first she looked at me like i was absolutely mad then came up with a stuttering "no we dont"

needless to say she hadnt a clue what i was going on about and the expression on her face led me to come to the conclusion that she had never heard of cdg before in her life.

i couldnt be bothered to ask another sales assistant just incase they really did think i was talking rubbish and going mad. supose i'll have to be patient and see if the signs go up in the window nearer the time or brave asking again.

yea got my time table today .. off all day thursday .. get in am made up

[loverunway]

lolol I hate how the staff in H&M never know anything. Like they don't even know about the 20% off voucher from the newsletter... They obviously haven't been trained very well.

this collection isn't going to be sold in all US stores is it?

[lucy92]

theres no use asking any H&M assistants about CDG. they arent allowed to know anything..

[loverunway]

idk, is there a list that says all the stores it's going to be in? I don't want to go to the H&M flagship in London as I bet it will be the one sold out quickest...

i've asked before about other collections and it never seemed to be a problem. ah well its just going to be a waiting game i supose.

it pretty be in my h&m ...
i want the coat, the dots and maybe the jacket. not really about the shirt. it really looks cheap.
i'm liking some stuff for women.

i wanted to ask, as i'm not an h&m by ... buyer.
but : rei K. did not do a special collection for h&m. it seems she's just taken some stuff from previous season. (i've seen the winter season in shop it's FABULOUS. the coat with kiss or hearts ? is to die for. if i remember well it was styled with some balmain.) ....
is it what the others did, as well ?!

anyway. i have huge expectations for this sort of peacoat. i really do hope the quality is good. and photo won't lie (i've been recently disappointed at h&m by a sort of trench inspired jacket).
