Over the past few years H&M has built a name for having some of the best fashion collaborations and hitting some of the biggest fashion news stories of the year. Having collaborated with names such as Balmain, Simone Rocha, Mugler, Moschino, and Karl Lagerfeld, they surely know how to keep shoppers on their toes who are desperately queuing from the early hours of the morning to grab their favourite items. This season the spotlight is on a H&M x Rabanne launch which comes just days after a star studded party they hosted in celebration of the iconic partnership.
The collection is titled H&M x Rabanne - inspired by Paco Rabanne’s trailblazing vision born in the 60s with the use of strange materials, predominantly metals, which raised his brand to fame. There is a nostalgic yet fun and inclusive feel to the collection which allows everyone to kind of relate to this collection, even those without much of an interest of knowledge in high fashion; not to mention how perfect the party designs featuring metallic discs and chainmail are for the holiday season. For those of you who are already checking out your bank account, here’s the disappointing news - as of the time of writing this piece, most pieces of the collection have sold out, despite the heftier than usual price tags - currently side-eyeing a £550 metal mesh dress.
