H&M TO LAUNCH EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION WITH ELIN KLING IN SWEDEN


H&M ARE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE FIRST COLLECTION DESIGNED BY A FASHION BLOGGER. THE COLLECTION WITH ELIN KLING WILL LAUNCH IN SWEDEN ON THE 3RD OF FEBRUARY, AND WILL BE SOLD IN 10 SELECTED STORES IN STOCKHOLM, GOTHENBURG, MALMÖ AND UPPSALA. 10% OF THE SALES WILL BE DONATED TO UNICEF.

- IT FEELS GREAT TO BE ABLE TO OFFER OUR SWEDISH CUSTOMERS AN EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION BY ELIN KLING. AS ONE OF SWEDEN’S BIGGEST FASHION-PROFILES ELIN FITS OUR FASHION-CONSCIOUS CUSTOMER PERFECTLY, SAYS SOFIA JEGERBORN, MARKETING DIRECTOR H&M SWEDEN.

THE COLLECTION CONSISTS OF 9 FASHION PIECES AND TWO ACCESSORIES, AND IS A MODERN, LIGHT AND MINIMALISTIC COLLECTION WITH BOHEMIAN INFLUENCES. THE SAYING “LESS IS MORE” GETS AN IMPORTANT MEANING. THE RESULT IS A STRONG AND CLEAR COLLECTION, WHERE SILHOUETTE AND MATERIALS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN DECORATION. THE DETAILS ARE WELL CONSIDERED AND DISCRETE, SUCH AS THE UN-EVEN HEM ON THE WASHED LEATHER-JACKET, THE HIDDEN CHAIN AT THE NECKLINE ON ONE OF THE DRESSES, AND THE RAW EDGE ON THE WIDE PANTS. THE BALANCE BETWEEN THE HARD, TOUGH AND SCULPTURAL, AND THE SOFT, DRAPED AND FEMININE SUITS BOTH H&M AND ELIN PERFECTLY.

- TO BE THE FIRST ONE TO MAKE THIS KIND OF COLLABORATION WITH H&M FEELS INCREDIBLY FLATTERING AND FUN. IT HAS BEEN VERY INSPIRING TO BE ABLE TO WORK SO CLOSELY WITH THE DESIGN TEAM AT H&M, AND I’M INCREDIBLY HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS. THE COLLECTION IS MINIMALISTIC AND RAW, BUT WITH BOHEMIAN ELEMENTS, SOMETHING THAT REFLECTS MY PERSONAL STYLE WELL, SAYS ELIN KLING.

^They did have it in the stores but since it was 10 euros it was sold out like in two days, at least here in Barcelona.


10euros? damn i paid 35 for mine from some b!tch who went to Zurich.:ninja:
 
^Really? So yes, it was 9.95 to be exact. Well, think about it this way: you´re lucky you got it! ;) my cousin wanted it really bad and she never got to get it (like tones of people here for sure) because of the price, which caused that massive "catching the dress" situation.
 
how i wish there was HM in Serbia.... i just love HM and hate most of other brands....(street brands)
 
i don't care about this blogger girl bu the dress and jacket are quite nice. Damn i wish it would be for all markets.
 
they may be doing a blogger collaboration in more than one market. a few months ago, "bryanboy" was bragging that he had a collaboration in the works with H&M via his Twitter: "OK. Not-so-big reveal. I'm very excited to be collaborating with H&M for a project you'll find out SOON. :-)"

:innocent:

i dont think its a good idea.
 
Do not like Bryanboy. Do not want to wear anything he has laid his hands on.
 
Got 2 really adorable sweaters today...
a peach sweater with a white deer & black heart
a mink green cardigan with white doves outlined in black

Also got a peach ruffle dress with dots that are made up of darker peach, white & black with a black sash belt. Not sure if Im keeping it. It also came in a navy color. Might keep this one, go with navy or return all together... do confused lol. LOVING the sweaters though!
 
Oops meant mint green & also there is no white on the dots of that dress.
 
LOTS of nice spring Trend stuff! Pics from nitrolicious.com

I really want the last sweater but I think it's sold out :(
 
I love the last sweater & the shorts but we havent got Trend yet. They were saying we would get it before Christmas but I have yet to see it so we'll see.
 
oh my the shorts are lovely... But I'm sure I'll mess them up in less than one hour of wear. :doh:
 
i love all of those pieces!

are they out yet? if that's the case, i need to get my as* over to h&m asap!
 
i have seen the last sweater 2 weeks ago in Antwerpen ,it is indeed lovely but a bit too short for me.
