The H&M Thread #2

[December_25th]

Wow the skirt looks gorgeous on the girl! (Is that Kim Kardashian's little sister?!)

I like the leopard skirt a LOT!!

But it's overpriced 30€ (!!!) & it looks quite short!

 

[*k.a.t.e*]

I love the dress and both pairs of boots in post #1786, I hope I can find them in store tomorrow. Especially the first pair of boots, I feel they'd go with practically everything I own!

I wanted to get the over sized dress in black. but thought it was too expensive (i want to own it, donno if i ll wear it). so i waited for sale. now it´s on sale for the half price but my size is run out. and it´s not online

the skirt in lovely but both version are no no for me - one has this horrible, horrible shade of green which i can't stand, and secod is well leopard XD

agree ^^

I don't have pictures of the H&M ones, unfortunately. Anyways, does anyone have them and if so, what is the quality like? I'm always so sceptical about H&M shoes, but I really love these.

Be careful with shoes from H&M, most of them are synthetic, so your feet won't breath.

 

[Psylocke]

^Thanks. I tried them on today and decided against them anyway. They did look sort of cheap and were way too big on me (couldn't find a 36).

 

[Desi]

finally found the black combat boots for guys I was looking for. Sadly it kills my feet so it may have to go back.

I really love that green and leopard print skirt too. Want to get it but sooo broke at the moment. I love the drapes.

That skirt is a total rip off of one from Reiss last season. Here's Reiss' :


Handbag.com

I'm not really a Reiss fan or anything, but it's a pretty blatant copy H&M have done.

 

[MissyJG]

^H&M made a much nicer and cheaper version! Lol. In fact, the one from Reiss looks cheaper than the one from H&M imo.

 

[honeycombchild]

Well, even so... the point was they've just totally ripped it off, almost exactly!

 

[The_Ida]

^And Reiss probably ripped that off Lanvin, who cares really

 

[honeycombchild]

Well clearly not you, but I do.

It's never good to see places doing such deliberate and almost exact copies of some other designers work.

It's never good to see places doing such deliberate and almost exact copies of some other designers work.

Reiss probably ripped that very skirt off some ancient Lanvin collection, so I don't see the problem. You pissed that H&M copied a knockoff?

 

[honeycombchild]

No, I said it's never nice when such a deliberate copy is done. Full stop. Regardless of who's doing it. I never said Reiss were in the right, but seen as how there's no proof thus far that they did indeed copy it exactly from Lanvin in the first place, it looks like a case of H&M copying Reiss.

Legally anyway there's implications, a certain number of things need to be changed in order to avoid legal action, so I just never see the sense in doing an exact copy like that. It's always going to be asking for trouble.

Anyway, whatever. I'm done.

 

[CarolineRose]

^^I can see both sides of the issue, but anyways, H&M does this a lot (copying designer pieces verbatim). Not that that excuses them, but it's more expected from such a "fast fashion" brand.

 

[KamenKutak]

just received (most of my) latest order... i looove this skirt, it reminds me so much of this Prada Handbag
