The H&M Thread #2

[honeycombchild]

I was in Paris today and they're in the process of doing a new store, that'll open this Autumn, and the sinage says there's a collaboration with Jean Nouvel launching in October..

i just googled his name and jean nouvel is an architect so that could explain the signage during the construction.

 

[honeycombchild]

Yeah, I saw he was an architect, however I'm not quite sure if it meant the store was a collaboration with him, or he done something else for them, as it said his collaboration was launching October 10th.

Sounded more like some sort of conceptual collection to me anyway.

Hi i'm new and I am an H&M lover.

k that out of the way.

I LOVE THE THE CITY SHORTS! It's featured in the new magazine. Can't seem to find a pic online. Does anyone have a pic? It's fab. I wonder when it wil hit shops...

 

[WillowFae]

OH! I also got a really neat blazer from H&M for £7! bargain. It's black and super long. One button. It's also a size bigger so it looks oversize. Pics later!

 

[scara]

wow, so yesterday i actually bought a jersey-top from h&m (quite similar but waaay cheaper than the ones from am.app.!) and i realised that i almost completely stopped buying things from their regular lines and only buy trend-pieces.

he is designing the new store, it is in the latest H&M magazine. Though it would be cute if he did a mini capsule collection of H&M home goods but I doubt it.

 

[honeycombchild]

That's cool that he's doing that, I hope it'll be an amazing store then. Maybe there are some bits that are going to be going with it, as I'm pretty certain this store will be stocking the homewear...

About the homewear, the UK is getting two flagship stores which will stock it - Oxford Circus & Tottenham Court Road. No idea where they're planning on putting it in Oxford Circus, as that store's tiny anyway! Maybe they'll remove lingerie or something..

 

[lifeistiffanyblu]

^ NOOO dont remove the lingerie lol the lingerie keeps getting smaller and smaller and they barely ever have new bits in now whereas before i could find something there every other week lol

 

[honeycombchild]

If you haven't been seeing the new bits coming in much lately then I'd say that was indeed a sign it will be biting the dust!

The homewear has to go somewhere and realistically I can't think of anywhere else they'd get rid of!

 

[diesanni]

I love their homewear. They have smaller shops here where they sell nothing but lingery, it would be great to have a place to go for their homewear as well. Especially since their online-shop is still crap. I just don't want to wait three weeks for my items to finally be delivered.

Saw a maxi tank dress I think I NEED to buy today... its kind of an army green but pale almost sage. The thing is it is CRAZY long! Its ok really cuz Im so short I would need to shorten it no matter what but its so long Im just wondering if it would be the perfect length on anyone?! lol

 

[Tiffany7]

Sorry for the double post... Im so good at that lol.
Anyways wondering if anyone knows when the bulk of the fall items will start arriving it the stores? I havent seen a single item of fall yet... at least I dont think I have.
Also hoping for some items in shades of camel... anyone know if the will have any?
Thanks.

That's the store opening on Les Champs-Elysées.

H&M's been doing so much fuss about it as they battled like crazy for years to get a shop on this avenue!

i wonder that too. size s maxi dresses are sooo long! i can´t image someone is tall enough for it

 

[MissyJG]

^their maxi dresses are way too long! It's insane!

 

[Mindbear]

I want this short bomber jacket!

pic from Instyle.co.uk

When will this lot be coming out, does anyone know??

 

[MissyJG]

I kinda like the greyish boots in the first picture.. Is this the shearling jacket everyone is going crazy for but in brown? It looks huge. More like a mens fit. I wouldn't be suprised cause Trend stuff can be huuge and baggy (even though I'm not even that small). The rest looks nice too!

Some of the fall stuff certainly have arrived - at least here in Denmark. The Trend section is filled with caramel coloured stuff. I'm already tired of it. It's everywhere
Though I don't know if the regular line will carry much in camel
I doubt divided will - it just don't seem like a Divided colour...

I have the black&white striped one from Divided in size 38, and it's a nice lenght on me - but I'm 177 cm tall... I don't know what they were thinking making them so long
