oh, saturday was probably my lucky day, but I asked the sales lady at chula vista's H&M exactly the same (if they'd be carrying the comme des garçons line), and she gave me a look and said 'yes, it'll be here by november but there will be a bigger selection at our new store in fashion valley, which opens october 30th'.. she did know what I was asking amd hoping for. lovely woman.

wow, Oct 30 :O! Which country do you live in?
I am going to ask because I want to know the exact date. Maybe it is the weekend and I will go and queue really early haha but i doubt it!!

I got told today my store is not carrying it ill have to go to manchester .. aparently its only the flagship uk stores carrying it .. manchester, london, brum and leeds

[Elegance.Is.Refusal.]

^^^ what 4 stores in the whole country?

i know leeds is the closest but its not like its just down the road pfft.

[gossiping]

damn...Brighton in the UK never gets anything! (I have to admit from what i've seen so far this collection isn't really my style anyway though!)

[snowqueen]

^^^ what 4 stores in the whole country?

thats what he said ..he said they are the four flagships, and this is going to be the most exclusive one of the colaberations yet as the last few times had mixed responses in areas..so this one is more limeted etc..also he said theres really smallnumbers to try and create the buzz that was there with the other designers .. as unlike lagerfeld etc. rei isnt really a household name

[Elegance.Is.Refusal.]

thats really disapointing i know shes not a household name but i believed the concept was to make high end designers designs accesable to us highstreet shoppers. blah i can stop being excited now.

the new store is opening on oct 30th.. the CDG line will arrive at the same time as anywhere else, I suppose.

Gaultier_Bandit, yes, good ol' Fashion Valley .. wait to see your football fans and suburban housewives in H&M from now on.

sorry to hear that but Leeds?? Yippee.....

[loverunway]

Oh yay. I live in London. But that's not very good it's only one store! I'm confused about the London flagship though as it used to be the Oxford Circus one but then a massive one opened in Regents street about two mins from the Oxford Circus one so i'm thinking that might be the flagship now :S.

that coat is like $349. Wow

[loverunway]

That's like £180! Woah some major saving up to do haha. That's way out of H&M's normal price range. I wouldn't be surprised if that;s the most expensive item they've ever stocked? Or maybe another designer did something more expensive? idk. Well I guess atleast not everyone will have it then.

[lucy92]

a madonna for H&M long leather trench was 298. and i think the viktor and rolf wedding dress was 300 as well.

350 is a lot.

i betere there will be only 50 made of the black coat as well. good luck getting it.

Yuck.
