Ever since last year’s Comme des Garcons x H&M collection, I’ve gotten pretty excited to see new collaborations hit the streets…Sonia Rykiel is an exception. H&M’s newest collaboration may be a bigger disappointment than the Matthew Williamson collection (and that’s saying something…) Really, H&M didn’t need Sonia Rykiel’s expertise to produce these boring, poorly executed pieces. This is definitely a collection worth passing on…unless you’re in the market for a hoodrat, gold onesie.

Almost lost a few digits while securing Becks a polka dot cardigan. Some flagrant tried swapping me his mens sweatpants for one of my pieces. Told him only woman and manorexics can fit into a size 28. All and all worth the hassle for a $49 top that the wifey will hopefully love. If not, eBay..,

Anyone with two eyes and the ability to take a hint can tell that the Comme des Garcons for H&M party preview wasn’t all that successful. After watching the sneak peak video, which appeared on New York Magazine’s: The Cut, I got an up close and personal view of the clothes. I’ll be honest with you…they don’t look as great as I thought. Up close, the women’s blazers don’t seem like they would look flattering on an actual body and the ruffled overcoat will probably need some professional fitting. One attendee commented on polka-dots dominating the collection: ”That’s a lot of dots…and I’m not a Dalmatian” and he also added that there will be “No lining up…it’s way too cold.” On the other hand, a party go-er who waited 16 hours for the Stella McCartney collaboration is excited for the line because “black is so versatile.” Thanks. I didn’t know.
Sorry if I got you guys all excited for the Comme Des Garcons line at H&M. Looks like November 13th will be just another day to sleep in (sigh).
Thanks for the video NY Mag!
Men’s Style’s Sixteen Essentials For Fall That Aren’t So Essential
Corey Moran, Mens Editor October 2 at 6:48
Read More:All Saints, AMERICAN APPAREL, Bally, brooks brothers, CNC, Comme Des Garcons X H&M, Filius, Flippa K, gap, Julian Red, Karen Walker, Meg Cohen, paul smith, Pringle of Scotland, rachel comey, Scotch and Soda, Steve Alan Cooper, Unconditional, Unis
Men’s Style released their 16 essentials for Fall, well I have decided to put my two cents in and chose ten of their items that I think suck. Their options are too safe, too old man, and just plain old boring. Not only am I going to give you some damn good alternatives, I’ll tell you where to get them and save you some cash too. All the links to buy the items are at the bottom.
Fashion Indie Recommends: Who goes hiking in New York City? Try these higher, yet comfortable boots for size. Tuck your pants into them, or wear your pants over top. It's called versatility people (H by Hudson $235 via Urban Outfitters)
Fashion Indie Recommends: Two is always better than one, so try this double buckled belt. I think I wore a braided belt in elementary school and hated it then. (All Saints $88 via All Saints)
Fashion Indie Recommends: Lapels are all the rage when it comes to suits these days. Simple outline on a standard grey suit (CNC $829 via Revolve Clothing)
Fashion Indie Recommends: Why spend so much on something so simple. Go cheap on an item like this, not only will know one know the difference, they won't care (American Apparel $16 via American Apparel)
Fashion Indie Recommends: How old are you that you are wearing a sweater like that? Don't get old too fast go with this cool shawl collar sweater (Julian Red $210 via Oak)
Fashion Indie Recommends: Go polka dots. They aren't micro, but they aren't a bold blatant pattern (Comme de Garcons x H&M $TBD via Nitrolicious)
Fashion Indie Recommends: Double breasted jackets aren't doing it for me. Like a said, lapels people! Try a cool knot jacket! (Scotch and Soda $240 via Revolve Clothing)
Men's Style #16: The Long Pea Coat (Unis $795)
Fashion Indie Recommends: Go long and tie it off. Commit to the full trench coat and be sure to get one with a belt so it doesn't look too baggy (Filius $450 via Refinery 29).
Men's Style #13: The Bubble Vest (Gap $68)
Fashion Indie Recommends: So this may be a bit more expensive, but undoubtedly worth it. This cool drooping neck sweater allows wearers to rock a cool sweater, or pull it up and over your head into a hood (reference image below)(Unconditional $278 via Oak)
