Comme Des Garcons pour H&M

Some of my favorite pieces from the Women's Collection
Photobucket

If you've been anywhere near the fashion blogosphere since August, you've probably already heard of the collaboration between Comme des Garcons and H&M. Recently there was more brohaha over the dress that costs 349$ (?!?), this of course sent waves of anguish through the hearts of fashionistas. How expensive was everything else going to be if a dress was that expensive?

Since CDG is a Japanese, (not to mention H&M's recent expansion in Tokyo) the collection will be hitting Japanese stores in early November. CDG's collection will be hitting all over H&M markets on November 13th. I may take a trip over to the Eaton Centre if I have the money, I'm not sure if the H&M in LimeRidge will be getting any CDG pieces. I have to remember to ask the staff about that next time I'm there.

A full preview into the collection is in Hong Kong's Ketchup Magazine. Online scans can be found here.

The cropped jacket is my favorite, too. So wearable... but still unique.

I really really want the pants from the Women's collection that I put up in the first picture. I'm just crossing my fingers that the limited edition 300$+ dress is the only piece that is that expensive.

:O you look like santogold's SISTER.
i just realized that.

Valentina said...

Hmmm i just did some comparative research and I have concluded that while there is some resemblance between myself and this Santogold, that I look more like a cousin than a sister.

(psstt. If you feel up to it do you wanna try and find a picture of her that resembles me the most?)

Tala Azar said...

okay, but your real sisters don't look like you at all.

Valentina= a 18 year old girl with an intense love for life, color and style. My family is my life and I’m having a torrid affair with television and loving every second of it. I like my school and I love my friends and I’m learning to love myself too. I love playing around with clothes but I haven’t found the patience yet to be able to keep up with actual fashion. This is a me blog where I’ll write about my life, my outfits and anything else that comes to mind. "It is absurd to divide people into good & bad.

The vast majority of the photos I use on this blog are not mine. Whenever possible I will credit photos but in some insistences this isn't possible. For example I have a collection of un-credited photos saved on my computer. So unless otherwise noted the photos on this blog are not mine. If you see an un-credited photo and it's yours (or you know who it belongs to) let me know so I can either take it down or give you credit.
