Wow, that's hideous. All the gaudiness of Versace now made on the cheap. It's all the overblown elements of bad taste thrown together in one collection.

it's sunglasses at the ready the next time I'm wandering through H&M.

[Sam]

It's totally ridiculous! But I like the shirts, and I like that black blazer with the wild lining.
The standout for me is the leather jacket; in a collection of statement pieces it's the biggest but most wearable statement, I think.

[Olly]

Oh this really is abhorrent.

[Sam]

Incidentally, Jay, you can save your sunglasses - this stuff comes off the shelves in minutes flat. Last time I tried to get hold of a blazer from the (fantastic) Lanvin collab. Total waste of time!
I'm also thinking that the sweater with the hideous pattern would look quite striking played right - say, layered under a slim black wool overcoat.
And that leather jacket is really cool. In a "£200 punk" sort of way. Which isn't so cool, but still.

With the overcoat buttoned up right to the top?

I guess I'm usually all about simplicity (in pretty much everything) so all the fuss and brash colouring does little for me and it all seems a bit Footballer's Wives/The Only Way Is Essex (not that I've actually seen either of those).

damn, some of those things are pretty hideous...

I can see where you're coming from there's a competition on the womenswear bit of the H&M site to create looks from the collection. It sounds bloody challenging!
