H&M x MMM =

So H&M are at it again for i believe the 13th time since beginning on their excellent designer collaboration undertaking. I'm sure you've heard by now that this time designer powerhouse Maison Martin Margiela are next in line to send the high street into a frenzied 'get your hands on any item' mess and although the collection will not launch until November 15th and the official campaign site on the 8th of the same month i have excitedly tracked down the entire collection lookbook online at styleite.com. After viewing the collaboration it has not let me down not that i was in any doubt however, it delivers everything you'd expect from a Margiela collection; expert tailoring, innovative shapes, neutral tones and obviously creations that are some what bizarre but never the less chic. Choosing favourite pieces was hard but i have narrowed down the sizeable collection to bring you my top 5 MMM collaboration pieces so here goes.

First up is this exquisite suede camel jacket lets be honest whats not to like? You could throw this on with anything and look instantly sophisticated although i'm sure this kind of sophistication will come with a rather large price tag if only i wasn't a student.





Secondly these oversized slouchy bleached denim trousers should do the job i love the fit of them and they just look so goddam cool!


Next up is an accessory, a rather peculiar leather handbag, gloves act as the handle clutching the bag at either side making for a little confusing but comical illusion. 




This stunning red number is next in line i love the draping that travels the length of the dress creating a unusual and refreshing silhouette.

And last but clearly not least is this insanely cool and undoubtedly impressive leather jacket words cannot describe what i feel for this jacket so just look at the picture and commence the aching need. 

Overall a very avent garde collection but definitely one of my favourite collaborations EVER, sadly i foresee almost all items will be out of my price range but i can't wait to see the items hit the stores and cause inevitable chaos on the shop floor and website freezing madness online.

In the black (jacket)

Timeless fashion house Chanel will exhibit at the Saatchi Gallery this month, the exhibition will feature over 100 of Karl Largerfeld's black and white photographs of famous faces wearing the classic Chanel black jacket. Aptly named The Little Black Jacket looks to be a treat, even the website is amazing, so if your not able to get to London check it out thelittleblackjacket.chanel.com. You can view the many famous stars in the black jacket each putting their own unique spin on the piece, watch the making of the jacket in Chanel's ateliers, and look at behind the scenes of the photoshoot imagery and video. Its the traditional jacket we know and love but reworked in so many ways.   


My choice picks:


Edie Campbell:Model
Waris Ahluwalia:Jewerllery Designer, Actor 



























Olivier Assayas:Director 
Dakota Fanning:Actress
