Am I the only one who thinks this sucks?

(photo H&M)

If I were a leopard I would sue the hell out of them for misusing my fur this much!

But is it just me?
I do love the website layout and music (called "the very best of Versace for H&M") I think that's brilliantly done, especially the title.

What do you guys think?

Chantal you are definitely not the only one!
I have been talking about this since the first time I saw the collection!

Raya said...

I think the leather pieces are great but the prints are too much for me :)

Ellen said...

No, you are not the only one. I visited two H&M stores in Paris and both where very quit in the Versace corner, while the rest of H&M was crowded. This was the day after the launch. So you are definitely not the only one!

Allegra said...

don't like it at all!! - I do not report about it either ;) 'cause even the jewelry is ugly

Bohemian said...

Don't like the collection at all, not really my style..

GloriaMejia said...

Joy said...

whoa strong language! i wish you would expand on why you think it sucks but personally there are some SELECT pieces that i sorta like. and by sorta like i mean i don't like it enough to go purchase it myself.

Liv said...

I like the leather pices and the jewelry but I agree, the prints looked pretty obnoxious to me. I'll probably pop in to H&M sometimes this week to see what's left over.

Voulez-vous some giveaway action?

Thank Godness!!! no, you're not the only one, in fact it seems like we're kinda francmasonic group that dislike this collection. i must admit there're a couple things I like but, please, in my philosophy this is called tacky

it sucks big time- i don't hate versace- i beliece that if you look really hard you can find someting to suit your tastes.
but i think this is the worst h&m collaboration:(

i can;t w8 for mary katrantzou for topshop collaboration!!!!!!!

I like some of the dresses (without print), a few of the leather pieces and one single (also leather) chocker necklace are quite alright, but overall I'm not a fan either. I haven't seen any pieces 'live' though, my local h&m doesn't provide the collection ..

I don't like the collection either...

pipilotti said...

I love you for saying this! I'm seriously tired of reading crappy "unbiased" reviews and praise of the collection. there's no accounting for taste, I know, but THIS is a joke! the teaser videos were ok, but the clothing sucks!

Oh wow, finally someone stepped up! I really don’t like it either, and I feel that most people that purchased it were just blindly following the trend.
However, as you already said, the website is brilliant. I would go on the site just for the music. I wonder if it will be available for download anywhere...

The very idea of Versace meets h&m is weird to me....but oh,well.....I'll live with it!

i've never been a fan of versace, i think the clothes are gaudy and overdone. this collection only accentuates the tacky-ness. not a fan.

Incognito said...

Well I must say that I like the leather pieces but the printed ones not at all, but the campaign has been brillantly made! I watched the video over and over. I think a lot of the collection is too tacky for "common" people, it is not really something in between high fashion and ready-to-wear...I haven't been to any H&M to have a closer look but a lot said it was really expensive (actually I expected it to be expensive but REALLY...I must say no for that!) but I think my curiosity will bring to their shops.

I actually really like the collection because I like Versace in general. It's funny that everyone is so surprised that all of you don't like it because as soon as something is mainstream its cool not to like it. I think the pieces were good price/quality! The leather was great for what it was and the print was my favorite!!

Jolien said...

the only one i like is the mens blouse in that trippy black and white print the rest just sucks i also don't like the fact that there the same quility as regular h&m clothes but ten times more pricy becuase it's versace haha

T E X T U R E said...

I totally agree with you.
Studded dresses...Oh please no...

6roove said...

hah, yes, the title is the best :D

but studded dress is nice, I think.
the leopard prints with the picture of eden (?) look trashy.

FashionFreak/Mihaela said...

there are few nice items.

kittenhood said...

I don't like the clothes either. There is hardly a dress or two that I like. Some people love it though, so it's mission accomplished for them, I guess.

fashion suicides said...

Hate it. It's so "cheap" (well, you know what I mean). I didn't even report it! There are still pieces in my H&M store and I don't think alot of people came camping at 6 am!

i wasn't crazy about the collection either, I only got a choker necklace. I think versace is mostly for older women, who grew up in the 70's and love big hair and lots of colors on their clothes :P

Gresy said...

I think the same, I wrote a post about it too!
have a look! :D

fashionbater said...

i didn't even bother waiting in line for the ridiculous prints and ill fitting dresses.
i would rather save for a special piece on my wishlist than buy just to buy.
glad you said this.
xxo

I actually hate this collection...
The fact that something has the label, doesn't mean that it is worth it. Originallity and aesthetics should be able to follow each other and be balanced. Well, in this occasion we only have a sort of originallity and not at all aesthetics.
BTW, I might not be a leopard, but I am Greek. I'm thinking of sueing them for the overuse of meander. ;P

FTD said...

I love the leather jackets and the accessories...
no more pieces.,...

the_time_is_grey said...

I hate this collection and I think H&M is going lower and lower to make money.
Without forgetting that those very expensive clothes are still made in china under modern slavery.
Disgusting !
I really appreciate you talk about this.

Dana said...

Darling, you aren't the only one. I bloody hate it.

chibiwow said...

Outrageous thats it. Too much for my style. :D

wow accounts for sale

Stephanie / FAIIINT said...

I hate it too, though I seem to be in the minority amongst my friends. Versace isn't really my style anyway, though I can appreciate why others like it, but this is just cheap & tacky!

Jana said...

You are absolutely not the only one. I find this collection so awful, i couldn´t imagine anyone wearing these clothes seriously.
It´s simply too much.

simequereisirsen said...

hahaha...so totally agree!

KatiCleo said...

To tell the truth, I wasn't really impressed either. I liked only a very few of the prints (like, 2) and a bright fukshia dress because I loved strapless cut on the bust. That's all. Expected more...

Viola. said...

I'm so agree with you. It's ugly...
