COMME des GARCONS for H&M NYC Party
DATE: October 26th, 2008


Gossip Girl Jessica Szohr and Me

This week passed by very quickly, perhaps it was because I was looking forward to the COMME des GARCONS for H&M party that took place Thursday, Oct 23rd at Espace. Before knowing where the event was going to be held, I thought it would be a press preview at the H&M showroom like the one they had in LA. Instead they threw an amazing party with an open bar, yummy hors d’oeuvres and desserts passed around throughout the night. I’m not mad since I’ve already tried on the pieces at the showroom a couple of months back. I’m a huge fan of the tv show Gossip Girl, so when I was happy when I spotted Jessica Szohr (she’s really nice and pretty), COMME des GARCONS for H&M campaign models: Cartwright Lee and Missy Rayder and Richie Rich but you can see the rest here- I didn’t get to see Maggie Gyllenhaal though.

Besides all the distractions, all eyes on the COMME des GARCONS for H&M Collection, you’ve seen it all already but I’ve shot close-ups of the actual garments with detailed pics of the limited $349 piece that everyone is talking about. I personally really really like it, I think the quality and construction of the suit/dress/jacket is amazing- the country manager of H&M was at the party dressed in that piece and it looked good- I want it!! All guests left with a gift bag, inside is the COMME des GARCONS for H&M Eau de Toilette (funny I checked eBay, I knew people would do this haha)! Great event as usual, big thanks to YM for helping me take pics!

H&M has also updated their website yesterday with the collection, prices (very reasonable) and locations of where to get each item- if you haven’t checked you should check out the virtual showroom, pretty dope.
