They say one person’s trash, is another’s treasure. H&M definitely took this passage to a whole new heights! H&M is now offering a small collection that they call ‘Waste’. The collection was made out of the left over fabrics from the Lanvin for H&M collection which was a favorite collaboration among celebrities.

Since they were merely using left overs, they used several different fabrics in the same garment producing new graphic and harlequin patterns that are absolutely delightful! The color combination is just so feminine and refreshing at the same time. Ann-Sofie Johansson, H&M’s head of design said, “This mini collection from leftover fabrics looks absolutely wonderful. My favourite piece is the bright, colour-block tunic. It’s perfect for the first spring update.”
And you know what? We just can’t help but agree. How can something so pretty have come from left over garments, and to top it off, is called ‘Waste’. The rest of the collection is simply adorable and they have shopper totes as well. Irresistible!







Questions about the former exclusive collection for H&M: Thanks!
Did you go to see Lanvin’s collection for H&M?
Whether you bought a piece from the collection or not, your opinion interests me!
I’m doing a PhD on this subject and am very interested in what you have to say.
