Balmain x H&M Collection Preview

"On Thursday, the 5th of November, the BALMAIN x H&M collection will be available online and in 260 stores worldwide. See each and every piece today – and get ready for a world of richness, attitude and energy."

After getting the chance to look at the entire collection I must say I am very impressed and super excited! When I first heard about Balmain's collaboration with H&M I was a little weary about it because I know true Balmain aesthetic and I wasn't sure if their line for H&M would stay true since it would be at much cheaper rates. The pieces from what I've seen thus far look super rich in terms of quality and color. All the pieces look like they were well planned and designed and all follow the same style and idea.

The collection designed by Balmain creative director, Olivier Rousteing is comprised of a lot of emeralds, golds and jewel tones. The materials used only add to the grandness of it all: leather, silk, suede and faux furs.

This line is also special because it is actually wearable. The last collab with Alexander Wang in my opinion was dope but the pieces were very exaggerated, over sized and a bit industrial, making it difficult to incorporate into a normal person's wardrobe.

The prices vary from a low as $17.99 ( ring/jewelry) to $649 (dress).

Below I listed some of my fave pieces from the ultra-luxe collection!
