EXCLUSIVE SNEAK PEAL @ H&M FASHION AGAINST AIDS 2011

Yesterday I posted H&M‘s new Fashion Against AIDS campaign through illustrations, now here’s the full look at the products for the unisex collection. This new collection took a different direction from last season’s festive collection, what’s your thoughts on it?

The collection is scheduled launch on April 28th in H&M’s Divided department with 25% of sales donated to youth HIV/AIDS projects around the world.

“Women can work that boyfriend look and men are working with styling more than ever in the way they dress. The starting point is shape and detail, with sporty T-shirts, blouses and parkas that are there to be personalized: sleeves can be rolled up or zipped off, waists can be belted and garments totally adapted from one item into another. Comfort is a key factor and colors are naturals as well as pale pastels which means they can be worn by all. A draped nylon parka looks just right as it is, or its sleeves can be zipped off and its waist accentuated to turn it into a dress for girls. The oversized and asymmetric slogan T-shirts can be worn in so many ways, while the collection is full of the perfect track pants, tanks and shorts perfect for summer.”

UK BY FRENCH CONNECTION AT SEARS

Sears teamed up with British retailer French Connection to launch UK Style by French Connection, a new line of contemporary clothing and accessories for men, women and children.

In-store boutiques featuring UK Style for French Connection has arrived at 500 Sears stores and Sears.com  Following the launch, Sears will introduce swimwear, footwear, sunglasses, jewelry, and other accessories along with items for the home.

“The women’s collection offers floral leggings and striped tanks (from $9.90) along with patterned minis, sequined and animal-print shifts (starting at $29.90), designed to capture French Connection’s joie de vivre. Inspired by street and runway fashions in international capitals, the men’s collection offers dark-washed jeans ($24.90), button-down Oxford shirts ($24.90), and V-neck tees ($12.90).”

Wow. Loving those prices. I’ve always liked French Connection but felt it was overpriced so this has great potential. Now I won’t know where to go first when I visit the mall, MNG for JCPenney? UK Style at Sears? Oh, the options!

H&M FASHION AGAINST AIDS 2011 UNISEX COLLECTION

H&M announced this morning their new Fashion Against AIDS (FAA) campaign, this year the sporty unisex collection offers something for both women and men. This is the fourth year of H&M’s FAA initiative, which aims to promote safe sex and HIV/AIDS awareness both through the messages found in the collection and through the advocacy of the organisations which benefit from the sales. The collection is scheduled launch on April 28th in H&M’s Divided department with 25% of sales donated to youth HIV/AIDS projects around the world.

“We wanted to create a unisex collection with a sporty vibe. It felt really liberating to think of the cut, the shape and the fabric first before thinking of what gender it should be for. Key pieces are the slogan T-shirts as well as the sports style jacket with zip details, which can be worn in all sorts of ways. FAA is vital because it is still so crucial to make young people aware of HIV and AIDS,” says Ann-Sofie Johansson, Head of Design at H&M.

I love H&M and am very excited about all the amazing things they are doing to improve our environment and the community. I look forward to contributing my part and shopping this collection 🙂 How about you guy?
