As I have grown older the thrills
and excitements for everything fashion has subsided a bit. Initially, I was all
about the label, brand and maybe even endorsements however, I have matured a
little in style. My maturity could be by default. Meaning, because of my own
personal recession brought on by being a full time student. I have now been
forced to change my spending habits. Therefore, until I get out of this
personal recession I will buy clothing apparel and shoes based on the price being
just right, other wise known as the “sale”. Furthermore, I am trying immerse
myself in the axiom that, “the clothes do not make man”. Instead, I want to be
the man that makes the clothes and sells them. Nevertheless, I still have my
days in which the occasional fashionable thrill may rear its hyped head.
Here, the fashion thrill comes
by way of the recent announcement that Swedish fast fashion company H&M holiday will be collaborating with high-end French fashion house Maison Martin Margiela. I love
the fashion pairing of low-priced fast fashion meets prestige and couture. On June 12th, Maison Martin
Margiela confirmed that they would be collaborating with H&M and releasing
the line November 15th, 2012 for the holiday shopping season.
