When I first heard about H&M collaborating with Balmain, I just knew it was going to be good. I am a huge fan of both the brands and Olivier Rousteing has been nothing short of amazing as the creative director of Balmain. Although I can’t splurge on most of his pieces, I am always lusting after his work season after season. This collection looks like something straight off the runway with incredible quality. I had a chance to preview it before it releases in stores November 5th and here is the first look I’m sharing. This emerald green mini dress I paired with a waist belt and oversized earrings. If you want to shop the collab, click in for details (and more pictures) how to get your hands on this must have collection.

This look is absolutely gorgeous! Being a college student it is hard to afford really luxurious brands that I LOVE! I am so happy that Balmain did a collab with H&M, still creating a luxurious feeling for a lot less. I would not expect anything less than great quality for an affordable price.

I love this green colour on you! Looks fabulous! Although I think I’m already bored with this Balmain collection with H&M. Too much of it on every corner and there is nothing unique about it anymore, sadly

Dear Marianna
Love the dress, suits you so well!
Can I ask you what size you’re wearing?
I usually buy the smallest or second smallest size, but not sure whether this one is a small or rather large fitting size.
It would help me a lot to order online
Thank you!

You look amazing, but unfortunately the collection is sold out everywhere. I live in Portugal and there is only one store where they sell it ( 3 hours away from me ) and all the chlothes are sold out online. I’m really sad because I really wanted a fur coat they had but I don’t think I’m going to get. Anyway , I’m trying to be positive about it
Alex says:
