Maison Martin Margiela for H&M: 14 Looks


Here's a peek at 14 looks from the upcoming Maison Martin Margiela for H&M collaboration, a 140-piece collection which launches next month. Six additional looks are still under wraps, but I think we can get a good sense of what to expect: Androgyny, asymmetry and oversize silhouettes. Yes, the collection is a bit cerebral but then again, so are many H&M shoppers even if they don't all have deep pockets. Kudos to H&M for not dumbing things down for the budget crowd. Love it or hate it, I think we can all agree on one thing: Those oxblood boots with lucite heels are killer.

Really, a sack with a pair of gorgeous boots? To hell with wearing a gusseted shower curtain, give me those gorgeous shoes.

These clothes are absolutely gorgeous...to look at, but not for me to wear! ;-) I'm more inclined to buy the men's pieces for myself if anything, but I love MM so I'll probably get in line and check it out anyway.

I love H&M. Some really cool stuff here. I think It's totally wearable, just break it down, choose one edgy piece and make the rest of the outfit more subdued.

Sorry, these clothes are awful and no one is going to wear them because they are not practical. Pants with one leg cut off? Oversized menswear that make you look like a little kid dressed up and drowning in daddy's work clothes? Pants that are so baggy it looks like you are rocking sweatpants five times too big? And the worst is the mens shirt that looks like an old school man's nightgown where one side is longer than the other... what man is going to wear that? If anyone is interested in this stuff they should just wait for a few weeks when it's on the sale rack. The boots are the only thing saving this!
