Will you wait in line at H&M?
UPDATE! The Newbury Street H&M will open at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 20 for the Lanvin launch.
Saturday is the big day, kids. The Lanvin collection for H&M goes on sale at the Newbury Street store, and you can bet that it will go fast. Based on experience, people dash and grab once the doors open. There is generally little left after the first day. The exception, of course, was when the store sold a Madonna-designed collection of track suits, which stayed around for months. Not even my mom was interested in the Madonna track suits.
The most expensive women's pieces in the Lanvin collection sell for $249 (although most dresses in the collection are selling for about $100). There are also men's looks. The most expensive is a tuxedo selling for $299, which is still a bargain when you think about how much a decent tuxedo generally sets you back. So, will you be crawling out of bed early on Saturday morning to get your hands on these high-end, mass market threads? Click for a couple more ensembles.
