Stella McCartney for H&M #2

[abbyroad]

For everyone still looking for their favorite pieces, it seems that the value of Stella for H+M on ebay is dropping. I really wanted the green dress and it was gone the second the doors opened at H+M in nyc. At first it was selling for US$250+ (original price US$99.90) but I just got it on ebay for about US$100. And since I'm paying shipping but not tax, it comes out to about what I would've paid at the store. Woohoo!!!

ah, this sounds really great. miuccia is always up for something new, i'd love to see what she'd deliver for h&m.....

I'm not a fan, I would rather see Alexander mcqueen do a line for h&m

do you have pictures of her collection? I can post some if you want?

its up on www.hm.com

i personally didnt buy ONE piece of the Solange collection, not really my style but every designer has their fans!

the solange jewellery looks pretty crappy to me..even the normal h&m jewellery/accessories are better....

h&m nearby me still has some stella left. such as the jumpsuits and green and black dresses...im thinking of buying more next weekend.

I just bought the blk tulip dress, it's gorgeous, and for that price real value. it's really well designed, i love it!! i think i'm gonna wear it next summer, it'd be perfect for then......

the solange line isn't great at all, but i did get the velvet eye mask (which came with breakfast at tiffany's style earrings) cause i liked it and it was only £6.

Craaaazay.

i think the solange collection sucks to be honest. its looks like stuff youd get a a department store.

has anyone seen the zip up sweater recently? thats the only item i still need.

I recently found a Stella long tuxedo coat at the San Francisco H&M. It was a beautiful piece, quality-wise, with some great details, so I bought it on the spot. However, I didn't find it too flattering on, so I returned it. It may still be there if anyone is looking for one.

i really love the knitted blouson, skinny jeans, and wrap dress. how's the sizing on the skinny jeans? do you think a 34/2 would fit a 25?

 

[lumy_]

I'm a 26/27 and tried on the skinnies in 36 and they were too big, so I guess I'd need 34...so if I, with size 26/27, need 34..them I'm thinking that if you're 25, 34 migth be a bit big? and I dont think they made smaller sizes than 34... But thats just my guess, you'll probably just have to try 34 and see for yourself if they fit! good luck

well, i guess that most of the stuff that is now left at the h&m stores in austria (wich is quite a lot) will go on sale after christmas..

btw. yesterday I saw somebody wearing that v-neck pullover...
the first time i saw a piece from the collection outside the shops

 

[snowqueen]

people who asked about sizing the extra small hung off me. the sizes are big

 

[vintage_princess]

Most of her stuff is meant to be oversized, but yeah, the sizes looked really huge for me since im really small..!

 

[lucy92]

i noticed that my local h&m has allowed people to return their stella bathing suits!

ick!!
i didnt think that people were allowed to return bathing suits!

I am a size 24/25 US waist in jeans, and 0. I ordered the 34 in the silk shorts and they fit perfectly, well perfectly meaning the baggy look, but the waist is perfect, these shorts arent meant to be tight obviously!

they really are beautiful, extraordinary detail to design.

The Miuccia Prada interview from vogue UK

Q: Would you ever consider doing a line for H&M in the same way as Karl Lagerfeld and Stella McCartney have?
A: "I have talked about it as they did ask me. I think it is an interesting concept and I would love to work on an entire collection using inexpensive materials. What I don't like is the idea of copying the main collection straight out. I think it should be treated as a whole new innovation."

LOL it's not like she isn't already using inexpensive materials for her own signature line

 

[Rockin Republic]

Sizes run bigger in my opinion.I liked the ribbon sweaters but 34 was still too large.

Isn't that the truth!
