Pearls and thrills and florals. Simone Rocha’s collections are a Pandora’s box of decadence: luxe pieces oozing with rich, exuberant textures and extravagant cuts. Simone Rocha is a feast for the eyes, an opulent spread of sumptuous fashion. This is why we could not be more excited for H&M’s latest designer collaboration.  Get out your diary, magic through the months and circle 11^th March – the release date of the Simone Rocha x H&M. 

No matter how much our hearts desire, often Rocha’s pieces are beyond our budget and many of us are excluded from her delightful world of dreams. However, H&M has ensured we weep no more, their latest announcement promising Rocha’s personality without the high price tag. Said to have spent time ‘reflecting on and recrafting her brand’s archive’, we can expect an overarching collection from this collaboration, a contemporary love child between the old, beloved pieces and new, unseen designs.      

For lovers of Bridgeton, this collection couldn’t have been timed better! The collection is delightfully predictable in that we can expect Rocha’s signature palette of cream, pink, red and black, yet simultaneously unpredictable since for the first time the brand is venturing out into menswear and kidswear. Rocha’s inclusivity echoes her desire for accessibility, designing her latest collection as a stepping-stone for everyone to enter her world. The H&M press release partially details this, telling us to expect ‘Delicate tulle dresses, tartan tailoring, beaded shirting, cable knits, outerwear such as trench coats and signature accessories like sparkling jewellery and pearl-embellished shoes’. 

Beyond the (anticipated) explicit beauty of this collection, the concept of a high-end designer collaborating with a high-street shop is priceless for the fashion industry. Not only does it weave a new affordability into luxury fashion, it also paves the way for high-street (often fast) fashion pieces becoming more treasurable and unique. In sprinkling the high-street with her art, Simone Rocha is subtly breaking the barrier between ‘high’ and ‘low’ fashion, a process all fashion-lovers dreams are made of! 

Until March 11^th? We’ll be dreaming of Simone Rocha x H&M…

Today H&M have unveiled a collaboration that is pure 90s nostalgia. Kangol x H&M featuring Mabel mixes iconic streetwear with authenticity and effortless style.

The collection features 31 pieces that have Mabel as its face and co-collaborator. The collection is authentic, energetic, and innovative. Pieces include long puffers, puffer jackets, and knitwear that bear the Kangol logo. The collection focuses on essentials: which has been a key focus of post-pandemic fashion. Think rollback sweaters and oversized logo T’s – a chic but effortless take on streetwear, in a way that is compulsively wearable.

Mabel is the perfect figurehead for this campaign. She is one of this generations biggest stars and recently won the best British female solo artist Brit award and over half a billion streams of her tracks, including Mad Love and Boyfriend. Talking about the collection, Mabel said that streetwear is in her blood, and she is aiming to share her creativity with a new generation. This is really a key takeaway of this collection – both her passion for streetwear and her ingenious creativity.

The collab is true to form for both Mabel and for Kangol. Kangol has deep connections to music, and Mabel is a self-made icon who is proudly representing the streetwear community as both an artist and as a creator. The collection also features a full set of accessories, including an iconic Kangol bucket hat, as well as a boxy crossbody bag and a bum bag, for the full nineties energy. H&M are defining the collar as streetwear for the self-made, which sits well with the self-sufficient Gen Zers of today.

Fans can also use six Kangol x H&M exclusive Instagram filters, to make themselves look like they are in the most recent Mabel music video. A week ago, Mabel dropped an interactive video for her track Bad Behaviour via Instagram stories. This allows fans to immerse themselves in the experience and is a unique and innovative take on both promoting the collaboration.

Mabel x H&M x Kangol

Hamish Morjaira, a representative of Kangol, stated that “Kangol are excited to work with H&M and Mabel on this collaboration. The collection perfectly captures the essence of Kangol today, full of fresh updates on streetwear style. We look forward to seeing our global Kangol community wearing Kangol x H&M.”

In short, the collection is an ingenious take on one of the biggest areas of fashion right now – streetwear and is lead by a woman who is as relatable as she is inspiring. With clothes that are

perfect for autumn, and a vibe that is nonchalantly badass and totally chic, this collab is a total win.

The collection is ready to buy today on the H&M site

Hailey Bieber; where do we start. A face that looks like it’s been carved by the gods, a body that suggests she hasn’t yet discovered fast food, a wardrobe that most girls would disown their family for and to top it all off, she’s bagged the man whose face was blue-tacked up on the vast majority of our walls throughout our adolescence.

Christmas is just around the corner, and with new festive fashion campaigns being released, we couldn’t be more excited for the new season. From Nicki Minaj for H&M, to Selena Gomez for Coach, get into the Christmas spirit with Voir’s pick of the most fashionable festive ads of the season so far.

H&M

Nicki Minaj stars in H&M’s new Christmas campaign. There’s an overall empowering message, as well as the new season’s collection.

BURBERRY

Lots and lots of fair isle knits can be found in Burberry’s Christmas campaign. The 80’s inspired short starring Cara Delevingne and actor Matt Smith, shows plenty of staple Burberry pieces and a Pet Shop Boys soundtrack.

COACH

Coach treat us to two campaigns for their festive collection: brand ambassador Selena Gomez stars in the Coach DINKY bag film, and ‘Bring On The Joy’ is a world where colours pop, metallics shine and Rexy with her mascots come out to play,

JIMMY CHOO

“Shimmer in the Dark” is the Jimmy Choo festive offering that is full of Cara Delevingne and sparkle. There’s a clever ending too with the message “I want Choo”

SWAROVSKI

With an extremely glitzy party hosted by brand ambassador Karlie Kloss, Swarovski’s Christmas campaign is set in a Crystal Wonderland brimming with celebrity. We spotted Naomi Campbell, Maggie Jiang, Chiara Ferragni, Jourdan Dunn, Fei Fei Sun, Ruby Rose, Maye Musk, Boy George and more.
