Balmain x H&M Collaboration A Huge Success
Balmain x H&M was released on November 5 and included a wide range of pieces such as beautiful all-over beaded dresses, sharply tailored velvet blazers, and sexy thigh-high boots for women, and spectacular outerwear for men.
Olivier Rousteing, head designer of Balmain, talked to Vogue.com about the collaboration saying “When you wear the clothes, you’re going to feel powerful and strong.” #HMBalmaination has been a popular Instagram hashtag leading up to, and after, the launch – linking people to the ‘Nation’ and making fans feel inclusive with the brand.

The limited release collection was destined to be popular, but it sold out even faster than anyone had anticipated! Of course buyers are now selling their purchases on eBay for more than they paid – some for more than triple the original cost! Bids are stacking up though as these are sought after items – so jump in now if you want a piece, or two!
Some of the collection is still available on H&M.com. Canadian shoppers, there is still a large amount of product available. Click here but be sure to change your Country location!
