LOTC: Versace for H&M lookbook and US pricing

October 27, 2011
Nov. 17 is V day (the day Versace for H&M launches) and one of the ultimate Luxing it on the Cheap collaborations.  As expected, this collection is not for the faint of heart.  Skin is in, tight fits are expected, and embellishment and electric prints are mandatory.  It definitely conjures and recreates the essence of the house of Versace at a much more manageable price point (everything is under $299).  While I’m not quite daring to wear some of the pieces (red floral pants are gorgeous, but I would need Cameron Diaz’s legs), I do love the fun studded patterns on some pieces and the edgy cutout detail on a staple like the little black dress.
Many of the pieces also feel like resort wear to me – perfect for a night out in Bali or a piece that you throw on for a great summer party.

I’ve included a few of my favorite (and for me, most wearable) looks below along with the price list.  The belt, black dress, and skirt are practically work worthy as well!

What do you think of this collection?  Are there any pieces that belong in your closet?

    I love everything here. But I must admit that second picture – the shiny dress – so sexy!

    I love the red, Grecian-looking cocktail dress and the black dress with cutout sleeves – I have to admit that I am a bit “over” designer collaborations, though. The items are great, but I hate it when people hoard and buy everything just to resell it on ebay for 3x the price (like the Missoni for Target craze). There is a smallish H&M near my work that sometimes gets pieces from the designer collabs – maybe I’ll be lucky enough to nab something from this collection there. The Union Square/Powell Street store will have more, but it’s going to be a madhouse!

    These are all GORGEOUS! I especially love the colorful floral dresses. 🙂

    I wish there was an H&M in my town. Sigh.

    You picked the best pieces!!! I can’t wait for it but I’m not looking forward to the lines and crowds. Oh wait, I just realized that I’ll be on vacation then and nowhere near a H&M. Doubt there will be anythin left when I get back. Oh well…. 🙂 xoxo

    Thanks for sharing this. I’ve been intrigued about the collection ever since I read about it in Instyle. Like you, I’m not daring enough to pull off a lot of these looks but I really like the cutout sleeves on the black dress. Makes me want to take a pair of scissors to things I already own!
