Simone Rocha x H&M

This felt very uneventful. Ordered two pieces just to try them on, but I don't think I will be keeping them.

Interesting that the men's collection is almost fully intact on the website even a day after (at least for my region). Guess this one did flop after all.

I just got an email from both hm and the postal service that says my order will be delivered today? I’m shocked at this efficiency??? Sad that it’s for something i’ll most likely have to return

update: the dress did indeed arrive and as expected even if sized down 2 sizes i still look like a xmas tree, so back it goes

The men's pieces available in my region are very bad...not that there was that much to covet anyway.

Which dress was it?

Which dress was it?

the black tulle one with the tinsel embroidery. its huge, super long (granted i am not very tall, bet even the sleeves are like, wrist length when they should be 3/4 at best)... it looked very well made but with absurd proportions

I loved that one, but couldn't imagine wearing that much tinsel on my petite frame, so I got the creme cloche dress. I got a medium and I'm going to need to some alterations. You're right, the proportions are weird. My fiance said I looked like a little girl playing dress up. I ended getting the long earrings and they are beautiful.

I ordered two pairs of the brogues and didn't realize that the black ones were exclusively men's. I get so frustrated when brands will list their interpretation of the sizes rather than just what's marked on the shoe.

I purchased a size US 8, but it was actually a size EU 39.

The black pair, I ordered a size US 7.5 and it was actually a size EU 40.

Does anyone else have this problem??

Just sent both back!

I received the white chunky sweater today after (of course) receiving an email that the shipment would be delayed.
So how does it rate?
The bead detail looks solid. it is indeed oversized - and good thing too as the weave isn't that tight. This may help keep the shape of the garment.
I'm not sure the yarns are spun in a way that would prevent or delay pilling.
Overall, it's a good item at the MSRP - not the inflated ebay price.
