Versace for H&M

"Iconic pieces for young people – the essence of Versace"

Versace's collection goes on sale in stores, on 17th November, and I for one am extremely excited. Metallic dresses and outrageous tropical prints will embellish the high street shop at 'affordable' prices.
While £150 is a bargain for a piece of iconic clothing, for target market of 'young people', it's still completely out of their price range. However, many other fashion legends have collaborated with high-street stores and have been phenomenally successful. For example Christopher Kane for Topshop flew off the rails. 
Amongst the range are my two favourite items;  the two cropped, studded and padded biker jackets in soft leather, priced at £149.99 and £179.99, which in fairness for a leather jacket, is acceptable, and for a Versace leather jacket, is heavenly. A nice addition to the range is the menswear, this is a rarity for high-street collaborations. I am a massive fan of the Miami meets baseball jackets, and their fluorescent tailoring acts as a beacon of light amongst this bleak November weather.
