Monday evening 22 November was the night of the big H&M opening. Outside the new H&M flagship store at the Dam was opened by a great 3D movie. Inside people were shopping like crazy. ‘Cause everyone who was invited for the opening already got a chance to shop for the Lanvin for H&M collection. It made fashion editors, bloggers and famous Dutch actresses fight over the Lanvin dresses, shoes and necklaces. Until there was nothing left.
It was a great opening party. Everyone who is someone in the Dutch fashion industry was there. Plus, there were delicious bites, drinks and people got lots of discount.
The H&M flagship store has six floors, including one H&M Home floor. The store officially opens this Thursday. So if you’re in Amsterdam, don’t miss it!

Last night all the clothes from the Lanvin for H&M collection came alive during the grand haute couture fashion show in New York. Everyone who is someone in the world of fashion was gathered at the Pierre Hotel. Stars like Sofia Coppola, Andie MacDowell and Elettra Wiedemann attended were their the celebrate H&M’s latest collaboration with fashion house Lanvin.
Especially for the show all pieces from the Lanvin for H&M collection were reworked and were given an individual touch. So real haute couture was presented on the runway! The special pieces will later be sold in an auction and all proceeds will be donated to UNICEF.
The models (Pixie Geldof, Olga and Anna dello Russo to name a few) playfully walked the runway. Anna dello Russo even brought a dog on stage.
It was one big party which, for the guests, had a spectacular ending. They were all allowed to buy seven pieces of the Lanvin for H&M collection. Unfortunately we have to wait until November 23. We’re so jealous!

Catwalktrend FW2010: Chunky Knitwear
We can feel that winter is just around the corner. The days get darker and colder, so we’re really beginning to need our winter wardrobe. And what better way to stay warm than by wearing a piece of chunky knitwear?
Especially knitted vests and cardigans are a big trend this season. Choose one with a cable knit of a nice winter print. And if you can, buy them in an extra long version. That way you can wear them with jeans as well as leggings. Besides you can wear a small belt on top to make your look extra feminine and elegant.
Check out our photo selection to see how Michael Kors, Dolce & Gabbana and Marc Jacobs worked this chunky knitwear trend into their F/W2010/2011 collections.

This year glasses have been very popular in fashion. People, more than ever, were wearing glasses even if they didn’t need them. So it’s a smart move of designer sisters Truus and Riet Spijkers to come up with a collection of glasses this month.
On Tuesday eve they celebrated the launch of their first collection of glasses in Amsterdam. They collaborated with Specsavers to come up with 24 frames and 10 pairs of sunglasses.
Like their clothes the glasses are absolute statement pieces, each with it’s individual style and shape. And they sure looked good. Congrats on this collection Spijkers en Spijkers!
