Did you shop the Maison Martin Margiela with H&M collection?

Did any of you shop the Maison Martin Margiela with H&M collection this morning? How long did you line up for and what did you get or wasn’t able to get? Super curious. Last night I attended the pre-sale event and it was cray already, I didn’t end up getting anything since my sizes were pretty much gone and it was just a bit overwhelming. My mind wasn’t really there, I spent most of the time watching people ha! But I do really like the collection, I may stop by H&M later to see what’s left after work.

If you’re still unsure of what to get, see the products and price list here. Also, saw this spread in the December issue of Elle Mexico featuring some of the piece and thought it was pretty nice and perhaps may help you decide if you want anything. The photos were shot by Santiago Ruiseñor, via Fashion Gone Rogue. Do you like?

If there’s no H&M where you live or you just simply don’t have time to go, there’s always eBay. Check the listings after the jump…

Maison Martin Margiela with H&M Silent Manifesto
Photos courtesy of H&M

Yesterday, some of you may have witnessed H&M sending sign-bearing, fashion soldiers clad in white aprons marching through high traffic neighborhoods in your city. 300 people hit the streets of San Francisco in anticipation of next week’s launch of Maison Martin Margiela with H&M. While San Francisco was the only US city that had the demonstrations but eight other countries like Hong Kong and Singapore also hosted similar marches in anticipation of next week’s global launch.

Hong Kong had a pretty cool concept, they had local actor/singer Shawn Yue shoot the demonstration and I spot a couple of celebrities in the mix as well like 曾江 Kenneth Tsang Kong and 周柏豪 Pakho Chau. Wish H&M did it in NYC, would of been quite interesting to see it in person. Did you see this in your city?

The collection consists of apparel and accessories for both men and women. Releasing on November 15th in around 250 H&M stores worldwide and online. Start making your wishlist, see the products and price list here.

Maison Martin Margiela with H&M   detailed look

It’s less than a week till the launch of the Maison Martin Margiela for H&M collection, are you ready? A couple weeks ago I paid a visit to H&M’s showroom to check out the collection in person (other than seeing it at the NYC launch party on 10.23). I personally love the collection so I was excited to play dress-up and see the pieces in detail. Being that the women’s collection is pretty much oversized, there are certain pieces that doesn’t work on a petite frame. I find it interesting that the women’s collection is oversized and the men’s is fitted but I personally LOVE wearing oversized pieces and I’m definitely going to try to pickup some men’s pieces too.

The shoes are amazing, it runs true to size (for me at least) and are nicely made. And I must have all of the accessories and bags, love every piece. How crazy does the women’s duvet coat look on me? It would of been perfect for when Hurricane Sandy hit and I didn’t have power and heat, super warm and cozy. Check out some of the pieces in detail below. I can’t wait!
