Tales of The Lost Girl: A little bit of Donatella......

In 2 days time H&M finally unveil their collaboration with Versace, but is the nation really ready for an army of mini Donatella's??

Apparently the answer is yes.

H&M have caused hysteria & mayhem in the past with their guest designer lines, who could forget Karl Largerfeld's collection selling out within an hour, but it seems Versace will triumph over this.

One thing you will need to shop the collection in store is stealth and possibly some kind of army training (I kid you not) a queuing system has been put in place with allocated wristbands and allotted time which can be spent in the collections area - I think I'll shop online thanks.

Now on to the actual collection - wild Hawaiian floral prints, sequins, studs, leather & lace the word FUN screams out in every way.

"I really wanted iconic moments of Versace,"

Versace for H&M silk dress, £79.99, Versace for H&M leggings, £24.99

Versace for H&M - Ring £19.99

Versace for H&M - Silk dress £129.99, Versace for H&M - Leather bag £99.99.

Donatella has definitely succeeded in this, the wild vivid prints cannot be mistaken for anything other than Versace and the more muted items are adorned with the inconic medusa design and the famous gold buttons. Versace claims she knows this customer and what they want.

"The Versace for H&M collection makes me wish I was 20 again. It's so bold and youthful, exciting and sexy. Definitely one for the young, the beautiful and the brave."

It's clear the collection has definitely taken inspiration from the late Gianni's early designs, and for many of the younger generation who aren't familar with the Versace legacy it seems collaborating with H&M was the perfect way to showcase his talent to a new and umfamilar generation.
