Rabanne x H&M Is a Party
After weeks of teasers, Rabanne x H&M is finally here.
Whispers of the team-up first broke in October, with official confirmation coming in the form of a Paris Fashion Week party attended by famous faces like Cher, Jared Leto, Damson Idris, and Elle Fanning.
At the star-studded affair, Rabanne and H&M dressed their VIP guests in pieces from the collaborative collection, which, until now, remained off-limits to the rest of us.
Rabanne x H&M is available now at H&M's website, offering a collection of womenswear, menswear, shoes, accessories, and even home goods.
“I approached this collection with a desire to create an inclusive, instinctive vision of fun, drawing out the playful side of Rabanne with the chainmail and sequin pieces and offsetting them with 1970s tailoring and leisurewear," Julien Dossena, Rabanne creative director, said in a press statement.
As we hoped, shimmery disco ball dresses lead the way ('cause what's a Rabanne collection without some sparkle?).
Bold patterns, chic embellishments, and other shiny finishes top off sleek sportswear, metallic suits, and statements tops — all arriving just in time for New Years, we might add. New Year's ball? Psh, you are the ball, honey.
Rabanne's collaboration follows a few buzzy H&M link-ups, including the forthcoming Heron Preston project and the much-beloved, sexy AF Mugler collection (yes, those skin-tight jeans included).
Since 2004, H&M designer collaborations have kept fashion folk on their toes, offering widely accessible, noteworthy capsules co-created with labels as wide-reaching as Marni, Simone Rocha, COMME des GARCONS, and Maison Margiela, to name just a few.
Now, Rabanne has joined the H&M roster. It's party time!
