Rei Kawakubo / Comme des Garcons for H&M Designer Collection - Page 23

JuiceMajor · 07-10-2008

Anyone here from Manchester? What was the reception like in the past? Don't wanna make a trip there and end up empty handed. Luv those coats!

cygnenoir · 07-10-2008

^ I'm wondering the same about Vancouver, BC.

I'm in Seattle but it seems like it might be worth a verrrry early morning 3-hour drive?
(Cannot get my heart set on that coat though...

)

Is H&M going to open any earlier the day this is released?
I'm going to a store in the richer area of London because I have the theory that maybe the people round there will be buying REAL CDG not the H&M diffusion

Though due to the credit crunch even the millionaires will probably be flocking down there! Damn!

Kimkhuu · 07-10-2008

Since they're carrying CDG over here (Montreal), and no one here seemingly cares, I wonder if I should buy some to resale.........

Never done that, so I am so not sure. Can I buy CDG stuff and return it if it doesn't "fit"?

**strawberry daiquiri** · 07-10-2008

I'm so annoyed now I see that it's not going to be at a H&M in the centre of the city, only at the one an hour outside, in posh suburbia, where all the yummy mummies live. They won't even understand it.

ms-nietzsche · 07-10-2008

YEEEES! It's in SF.

The coat/dress looks fantastic in the ed, I might end up having to get that, assuming I can get my hands on it.

Scott · 07-10-2008

it's so irritating and depriving,i can feel you all. arrrgh...

chicago?????? why not boston or atlanta? not saying anything about about chicago as its a lovely city,but what's extra special about chi town? i highly doubt even there,there is a high volume of comme clientele. the only place i know you can even pick it up at other than the big department stores is ikram.

margault · 08-10-2008

yeah! paris is so cool for that i'll be able to check it out in 3 different stores, and one is 10minutes away!!

i just realized that the 350$ dress has long sleeves. STILL not worth it.

**MulletProof** · 10-10-2008

awesome, lucy. thanks for posting. I doubt I'd buy the ruffled dress, it's beautiful but I really don't see myself wearing it, though maybe I should make my debut in that visual-pleasure kind of purchases!.
Reading all the anticipation makes me so nervous tbh

, I can't stop imagining the place packed with aggressive shoppers.. I don't do well around them.

**lucy92** · 11-10-2008

some prices.
the wool velvet dress with the scalloped hem is $129.90 and the womens trench coat is 199$.

loverunway · 11-10-2008

The prices seem a bit excessive to me for a designer collab. I also read an interview with Rei Kawakubo in Elle UK and she didn't give much info away. I'm hoping to get a jacket [anyone know what price range this willl be in? I only want to spend about $100 on it... Also the 2 tone sweater and navy polka dot shirt.
I'm thinking about some of those infamous drop crotch pants but I don't see myself having the confidence to wear them!
