This morning H&M announced that its Autumn 2011 designer collaboration will be with one of the world’s most legendary fashion brands, Versace.
Designed by its creative director Donatella Versace, the exclusive collection will look back to the vibrant heritage of the brand, full of leather, prints, colour and exuberance in exclusive materials at fantastic H&M prices.
The collection will include ranges for women, men and selected pieces for the home.
Mark 17th November in your diaries, as that’s the date the collection will go on sale in around 300 stores worldwide, as well as on-line.
Donatella Versace will also design a pre-spring collection for H&M which will be exclusively available in countries with H&M on-line sales from 19th January.
Versace follows the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Comme des Garçons, Jimmy Choo and, most recently Lanvin who have all collaborated with H&M.
How excited are you about this collaboration?
Donatella is clearly very excited about this collaboration, because she wore a Versace for H&M dress yesterday as she took her bow after her Spring 2012 menswear show.

AWESOME!!!
That leather dress with the gold studs will be the IT dress. I am dreading having to get in line at the crack of dawn
YES. I’m already online buy my camping gear.
LOL
you’re such a star, FC
YES! I WANT THIS DRESS!
You will have to fight me for it
This is on my wish list too x
FC this is MY DREAM coming true! I’m crying…
I can imagine
Lol I might as well get in line now
That dress! <3 Oh wow, this collection will be fabulous, cannot wait!
Can’t wait!!!! It’s on sale on my birthday!!! Too bad I don’t have any way of buying it.
It will be sold online
But I live in Australia and they don’t ship here
bummer
damn it
why its sooooo unfair
i love australia but sometimes it sucks
maybe it’s a stupid suggestion, but do you have any friends or family in the UK you can ship it too? And then they can send it to you in Australia?
That’s how i do with my European friends.
That’s a good suggestion. Time to ask around and see any of my family and friends has connections with Europe.
can you buy H&M from australia yet??
donatela once swore she’d never do a high street collaboration.
Thank God she changed her mind lol.
This might become a new trend for Couture designers, since they’re all struggling with bad economy nowadays. *keep finger crossed & hope for more*
O.M.G.* Dead & gone to heaven*. FINALLY. Nothing will stop me for getting more than one item: OH the fight! I must stop eating & living right now, so i can afford to empty the shops in Oktober & January.
I agree. Nothing will stop me either.
AHHHHHHHHH no way! I’m booking a trip to Denmark right noooow.
Do it.
so happy i’m living in denmark!! i’m going to want every. single. piece
especially that leatherdress– can’t freaking wait
I’m happy H&M isn’t in Iceland, I’d spend every paycheck in there
Oh My freaking GOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am on it like right now !
WOW! good news!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
FC do you know how i can find out of my country will have the collection? because i’m in egypt and we didn’t get lanvin for H&M so i don’t know if we’ll get this collection!
Not sure which stores will stock it.
We will have to wait until until they are announced
thanks
Oh my gosh, she designed color men suit= totally gonna buy that! And I will buy that gold stud leather dress for my sister whether she likes it or not! Thank God I only have to drive 6 hours to Chicago for this!
brilliant!!
Sry but nothing for me.
I ran to K.L for H&M yrs back but dissapointed with the material of the clothe. Also to cut wasn’t THAT special.
And now Versace…..is just a good marketing publicity.
and I guess the material would be of the cheapest quality!
Indulge yourselves please!
Lanvin was of the highest quality.
I’m sure this will be too.
Had Donatella not said she was wearing Versace for HM in the video, we would’ve assume it was the mainline collection.
So true! I have a feeling this will surpass Lanvin judging by this stunning dress. I find myself analysing every sketch in that Youtube video. lol.
It might be the best collabo ever done by H&M. EVER. I honestly don’t know how they are going to top this.
I wish ya’all luck with this big commercial publicity and how they create “The Buzz”
But please don’t mix up that dress that had on La Donatella which was made in the “ateliers” of Versace…specially tailor-fit for her…..nawh all’you wouldn’t get that royale treatement.
whyyyyy is there no store in Australia!
Time to plan some vacay…
Ok, everyone simply must let the rest of us know which pieces you are able to score when the time comes. Good luck!
OH. MY. GOD! i literally just woke up (i know lazy haha) and this just put a huge smile on my face! i want one of those suits *dies* best hit the gym big time and tone up.
Shaking and Crying rn..best news ever!!
i think it’s exciting but it will be murder on the high street. I can already imaging the fights in the store….
I’m sure they will keep the same shopping system as the Lanvin for H&M launch
omg yes i so freakin excited yesss thank god i live in new york so i know they going to have it in the stores here but i’m dreading waiting on the line with all those people i love versace and now i can actually afford something on my college girl budget
I Love Versace but for me, It’s the epithome of LUXURY. Versace is a Loud Luxury and nox, an H&M collection?
I will certainly love the clothes but the idea….i’m just confused!
DONATELLA IS HOT!!!!WORK THAT
I think its awesome
) will never get the chance to get the cutter outfits 
But the bummer of these designer lines is that they sell out super fast so people that can’t be bothered to go to the shop like 2 hours before the store opens (like me
I agree, these announcements just kind of make me depressed because as much as I may LOVE the pieces, I know I have no chance at getting my hands on them unless i want to pay the ridiculously marked up price on Ebay.
finally menswear *__*
I sent my sister with my list for the Lanvin collection so this time, it’s going to be my turn.
Oh boy, somebody pray for me!
YES!!!!
OMG! I am so excited FC.
I CANT WAIT there is an H&M in orlando and i will be driving 3hrs to go to this sale omg and FC did I seea red version of the black dress Mila Kunis just wore on the sketch wall! DIEING RIGHT NOW!!!
oooohhh! that sounds so good!
to bad i wouldn’t be able to afford it nevertheless… lanvin for h&m dresses in Poland cost almost two times more than my rent:(
omg!!WOW!!
i love it! and i’d suggest putting donatella in bdotw poll?
I love this dress
I am really excited about this collection, I hope I’m not disappointed
I’m so upset… HM sells these collections only in one store in Italy , and doesn’t sell on-line, so I won’t be able to buy anything. Her dress is beautiful, even if I agree with the one who wrote that came out from Versace atelier just for her, not from one of HM’s factories.
