Oy viegh! Another one? Angela Missoni, chief designer behind the zigs, the zags and the knits, was rumored to have said that she “would like to do something with H&M because it is a very powerful way to reach younger girls now.” But before you lose bladder control, let it be known that this quote remains sourceless and with the release of the Matthew Williamson for H&M collection tomorrow, a collaboration like this probably wouldn’t hit shelves for at least a year. And I hate to break it to you, but I highly doubt the zig-zag pattern will translate well on cheap cotton garments.
Thanks Pipeline!

For those of you in great anticipation for the release of the Matthew Williamson for H&M collection, tomorrow is your day! Be prepared for bright colors, bold patterns as well as some funky jewelry and accessories. Similar to the pricing of the Comme des Garcons for H&M collaboration, prices will range anywhere from $25 for accessories to about $350 for the beaded maxidress.
Not sure if you should all in sick? Is it worth waiting in line during tomorrow’s forecasted rainstorm? Well, here’s my opinion. If any of you recall my post bashing the prices of the Comme des Garcons collaboration, this collab isn’t any different. Personally, I think the line is tacky, looks cheaply made and not a single piece deserves a price tag over $80. Though I’m all about the bold pantsuit for the spring, I simply can’t imagine that the Matthew Williamson for H&M one will fit properly or even be quality made.
But for those of you rushing to the nearest H&M to snag the silk tunic you’re dying to toss over your bikini this summer, please, let us know, was it worth it?

H&M regularly has ads that are a lot better than you’d think a chain retailer would have. These ads are no exception, as Daria Werbowy stars in the summery campaign for Matthew Williamson’s collaboration with H&M.
The Asian-inspired styling of this shot is highlighted wonderfully by the incredible colors.

One of the perks of being a celeb is that you get to wear clothing that is not yet available to the public, which really pisses me off. I have been looking forward to the MW for H&M collection since it’s announce back in Nov (mostly cuz McQueen for Target was so dissapointing) and it’s just not fair for a celeb to get thier hands on pieces that I can’t buy until April 23…
The above sequin dress will set you back $200.

Daria Werbowy and Matthew Williamson took a little beach vacation to shoot his latest collection for H&M. Yeah, we’re jealous.

Today has been a great day of blogging for me so far. I have been lucky enough to get to write about some of my favorite designers, and Ksubi is just another to add to the list. The latest Spring 2009 Collection is getting ready to hit stores, and I am very excited as usual. Correct me if I’m wrong but it has a bit of that Matthew Williamson vibe to it? Love the collection, hoping that I can get some cash in my pocket to buy a couple pieces.

Info on Matthew Williamson’s line for H&M has been emerging slowly over the months.
The collection debuts in stores April 23, and the latest updates are some sneak peeks at a few of the pieces, as well as a scan from Dutch ELLE. There are several silk pieces — blue silk suit, tan silk jumpsuit, and a silk dress — along with a sequin minidress and a peacock-print dress.
The jumpsuit, above, follows Alexander McQueen’s McQ for Target capri jumpsuit, but is more safari/resort and less utilitarian than McQueen’s. It’s more fashiony and less punk.
We’ll have to wait a bit to see how all the pieces fit — Williamson’s Solve Sundsbo-shot campaign (featuring Daria Werbowy) debuts in May.

There are so……many great bags out this season that I sometimes actually feel a lightheaded when looking at them. I personally prefer a little, or should I say, ALOT of detail on my bags of choice. The focus is on clutch bags today and Here are just a few of my favorites. From top to bottom the designers are, Sonia Rykiel python clutch….Roberto Cavalli snakeskin and diamante clutch (EXQUISITE)….Roberto Cavalli black jeweled clutch….Proenza Schouler Pochette’s x 2….Missoni Snakeskin clutch….Matthew Williamson python Pochette….Judith Leiber x 2 (love the cupcake)….Dries Van Noten x 2….Bulgari….Alexander McQueen x 2 (love, love, love the fringe clutch). The “jeweled daisy” clutch has a beautiful vintage look and is a sure favorite. Enjoy the view!

Eva Longoria’s outfit looked just old at Matthew Williamson Tuesday.
I think usually we blame the celebs for their flubs — ill-fitting dress, bad makeup, etc. — but while the white top/khaki skirt combo is pretty drab, the jacket is clearly the worst part. The fault may actually lie with the designer.
