The Fashion World Is Losing It Over H&M's Designer Collaboration Announcement
Gird your loins: H&M's most glorious collaboration is coming. The retailer has teamed up with Italian-born, Paris-based designer Giambattista Valli on a new, limited-edition collection, and the fashion industry is collectively giddy with excitement. A limited amount of pieces will be available in stores and on H&M's website on May 25, but we'll have to wait until November 25 for the full collection to launch. In Cannes yesterday, none other than Kendall Jenner debuted one of the sure-to-be best sellers from the collab: a frothy tulle dress in hot pink.
"I am excited about this collaboration: H&M gives me the opportunity to bring my vision of style and my celebration of beauty to a wider audience," Valli said in a press release. "The goal is to share my love for beauty and to be able to be part of everyone’s 'happy moments' to help create love stories all around the world."
Added Kendall Jenner: "I'm so happy to be wearing one of the first pieces from the Giambattista Valli x H&M collaboration here at the amfAR gala," she said in a statement. "This dress is everything—gorgeous, dramatic and fiercely feminine—and I can’t wait to see what the rest of the collection will be like." Scroll down to preview the collection.
