Versace for H&M...

baby and crumble

Hey all,

I was looking at the Versace for h&m collaboration pieces, and there's a pair of shoes in the men's collection that I really really want.

I know that these collab pieces often get sold out really quickly, but I've only ever heard of this with the womenswear...

The collection launches November 17th... Do you think to get a pair of shoes in the men's collection I'd need to do the queuing from before opening thing? Anyone have any opinions?

It's not just peoole queuing up who want to buy and wear the pieces that you have to worry about, it's people who are queuing up purely to resell the stuff on eBay and make a quick profit. That's why these things sell out soooo quick.

Anyway, tiz up to you - I don't believe anything by H+M is worth queuing up for (collaboration or not) but that's your call. Good luck with it and hope you can get your shoes!

I Q'd over night for the Jimmy Choo collection with H&M & it was so worth it! Yeah there was EBay people ahead of me who didn't even look at size etc just grabbed what they could get their hands on. I got 2 pairs of fab shoes which I love & wear all the time. My advice if u have ur eye on some shoes Q for them, I'll prob c u there :-)

Did anyone here go and queue this morning? I read reports that it was mad in the UK, and that half the mens collection wasn't in store! Anyone score anything they really wanted? I didn't bother in the end, decided my sanity was worth more. Might go up later and see if everything is gone...

wasnt there myself but apparently the queues were mental at it this morning

Are these only in H&M in Dublin?

Far as I know only 2 of the Dublin stores got the stock in, Dundrum and King St., although on King St was on the website...

Hey, me and two others qued from 12 last night, we were in the first 20 let in store to shop.

I only got one of the items that i had gone in for.

There was none of the iconic leather stuff at all. And half of the other stuff advertised was also not there.... So disappointing after quing all night.

The quality of a lot of stuff wasnt up to par either....

One of the boots came in, in one size only, of which there was only one pair!!!

H & M shouldnt have had stuff advertised which they werent going to be selling.

This was Dundrum. Any different in dublin centre?

Sounds awful! I've a funny feeling that the stuff isn't the best quality either, but I've yet to see anything. Holding out for the Tom Ford and H&M collection!

That really sucks, pretty shoddy on H&M's part. I'd heard that a lot of the mens collection hadn't arrived in certain stores in the UK, didn't realise it was the same for the womens' collection too.

I think the Tom Ford collaboration could be epic.

Might be OT, but I just do not get the fuss about these 'designer' collaborations. Had a look on the website, every single one of the garments is vile!

Is it more appealing just because Versace has lent their name to it?

baby and crumble

TBH I rarely do either but there was a really nice pair of shoes in the mens collection I had my eye on:



Most of the other stuff is a bit OTT for me, but then if you're a fan of Versace in general I'm sure you could find a lot to get excited about, because they are quite true to the designs released by the design house. Especially if you don't have Versace funds.
