Any preemptive thoughts? I wouldn't be surprised if it was womens only, and utterly mediocre, but at the same time I'm somewhat hopeful.

There's no way I'm going to go wrestle all the russians and other lowlifes to get this stuff at retail and it won't be worth the eBay prices.

There's no way I'm going to go wrestle all the asian lowlifes to get this stuff at retail and it won't be worth the eBay prices.

fixed it for you

[ProfMonnitoff]

oops. goldengloves please merge.

[fade to black2]

this is going to suck

i don't see the point in this collaboration at all....it's not like CdG isn't already market friendly enough with its thousand diffusion lines and what not, what else can this possibly add to the cdg consumer base/empire

even the main label isn't priced so outrageosuly it warrants a high street version. bought a pair of H+ pants from s/s 08 that cost me little more than what a pair of zara trousers would cost me here.

[homme.homme]

this is hardly something to make cdg more accesible. it's just for h&m to make money and for cdg to get a bit of publicity.

bah to this.

[Liberation1945]

wouldve been far more interesting if it was watanabe for h&m or tao for h&m...

[fade to black2]

yeah probably, but those two designers are very heavy on innovation of fabrics, might be a bit harder to distill that into something more mass market friendly

i think Raf Simons for H&M would work.

[herpsky]

The real story is that they are trying to promote the launch of H&M japan.

theres NO H&M in the japland.

They are trying to drop the cdg collabo at the grand opening to attract customers (read peasants).

it's H&M wanting to get publicity, not comme des garcons.

As much as I'm sort of anticipating the release of the collab, I for some reason have doubts that it won't see the light of day in Toronto stores.. Dissapointing

[homme.homme]

oh i see. so.. the opposite reasoning for all other h&m/topshop collabs

[fade to black2]

that makes more sense put in that context...

The original press release that announced the collabo was from Toronto. It will be available in TO. Toronto has gotten every single H&M designer collabo so why not this one.

[Thomaz]

Wait..it's for publicity? :eek:

[Charlie Delta]

Ha!

When I talked about this with my mother she clearly showed how dissappointed she was in CDG for doing this...

[Liberation1945]

^ why though? 34234234 diffusion lines, 2837218032 different scents, 349813437489324 collabs...oh, and fucking cdg play, nuff said.

i'm actually surprised that it took this long for them to collab with a big box/fast fashion retailer.

[Mattjay]

im still interested. oh well.

[tac0tron]

Yikes! Still very interesting though.

it'll be at big stores (yorkdale, college), like Cavalli and others.....

WTB H&M LOLITA DRESS

[oh snap]

looks hotter than i was expecting. i dig the coats

anyone have slightly better scans?

[mrip]

will cop drop crotch trousers and shorts only if cheap

[geekbonchic]

Two-tone cardigan may be okay. Only if it has some interesting construction, which it probably won't. Might just cop a coat because I need a new one. Overall, I'm as apathetic as I was before.

[SamG]

whens this showing up in stores?

[alexryb]

I'd definitely be interested in the drop-crotch pants.

Someone willing to get price points on them & pick them up for me?

[nf one]

slated for november

[DoTheWhirlwind]

most likely the second thursday in november to be precise.

it looks decently promising.
