HOW TO SURVIVE TO: MMM TO H&M COLLECTION

 MMM x H&M collection is about to hit the stores on November 15 . The result of a collaboration between such a niche brand like Maison and the giant retail H&M has produced the most non commercial, non masses collection so far. It comprises 104 pieces of re-editions of Margiela items over the past 23 years. My first reaction when I got to see the advertising campaign last week was shock. Though the campaign pictures were beautiful (shot by artist and director Sam Taylor-Johnson) the revolutionary shapes and cuts  were extremely well...revolutionary for me! I'm a self proclaimed fan of feminine and structured silhouettes so I instantly  thought "I hate this collection". But then little by little, having a look in all the look book I started to be in love with some of the pieces. This is a love-hate kind of situation. So I leave you here with some of my favorite items if you didn't fall in love yet...

  2. Comprei um casaco bem mais "normal", cinza e com um detalhe de construção impossível de conseguir em qualquer loja high-street, por isso zero arrependimento!! Das tuas peças favoritas, experimentei as calças (parecia uma saco esquecido algures num sótão eeheh) e comprei o colar sem experimentar.. conclusão, tive de o devolver, ficava suspenso nas minhas clavículas.. ups. eheh
    Mas foi uma das colaborações mais fiéis à marca original e com pormenores de charme, desde o saco à amostrinha de perfume! :)**
