{Fashion Fix} Maison Martin Margiela for H&M

The sneakpeaks from the lookbook are fast making their rounds on various fashion sites, and I will admit I was at first baffled by the news of this upcoming collaboration. To me it was probably the least likely scenario in fashion collaborations ever!

 

And yet, here I am thinking - this is awesome! Brave, sophisticated, minimalistic, edgy, and smart. Granted, some styles are definetely not my 'cup of tea' but I really applaud both MMM and H&M for coming up with a collection embodying the best of both worlds, and I really love that a much less commercially known brand will be featured in this way. I was excited about how the avantgarde style of MMM would be created for the mass market.

 

Surpricingly, I really like a lot of the styles.. Usually, MMM is not really my thing but perhaps because the avantgarde is toned down and become more 'wearable' it gets me? Nevertheless, who cares what I think? Let's see some of the pictures... Here's my favourites (about half of the collection) from the upcoming Maison Martin Margiela for H&M collaboration. It is expected to hit certain stores and hm.com November 15th.

 I really like this bag and a nice oversized sweater in navy will always have my name on it..

 Probably not a dress or set (I cannot tell exactly which it is) I will buy but the shoes!!!!

 I like this oversized blazer/coat.. This will be something I hope to get a chance to see up close.

 Again, probably not one of the things I would buy but I really like it nevertheless. Also the boots and the necklace are quite gorgeous.

 I do hope that's a necklace!!! And if only this sweater dress was shorter...

 Interesting take on the classic white shirt. Excited to see this up close..

 Beautiful jacket; classic and modern at the same time.

Be still my beating heart! This is beyond perfection.. Wuaw!

 

So, any cravings already or are you saying 'pass' on this colab??
