Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

H&M's Gala Collection Was Inspired by the Met Gala

— May 15, 2018 — Fashion
Very few people can afford the high-end price tag that's associated with the bespoke designer dresses seen at the annual Met Gala, so H&M designed the 'Gala Line' -- an affordable collection of gowns that drew inspiration from this year's highly anticipated celebrity event.

This collection features its own unique designs, simply capturing the spirit and mood of the event, rather than replicating individual looks. The end result, is a gorgeous series of dresses which can be seamlessly worn to any upscale event one might be attending in the near future. Some standout looks from the Gala collection include a blue sequin wrap dress, as well as a chain mail-inspired look that's sure to turn some heads.
Trend Themes
1. Affordable Gala-inspired Dress Lines - Opportunity for fashion brands to create affordable collections that draw inspiration from high-profile events like the Met Gala.
2. Spirit and Mood-inspired Designs - Potential for designers to create unique dress lines that capture the essence of a specific event rather than replicating individual looks.
3. Versatile Dresses for Upscale Events - Demand for versatile dresses that can be worn to various upscale events, catering to consumers' need for multi-purpose and cost-effective fashion choices.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Retail - Opportunity for fashion retailers to tap into the market of affordable designer-inspired dresses for consumers who cannot afford high-end prices.
2. Event Planning - Potential for event planners to collaborate with fashion designers to create dress lines specifically inspired by high-profile events, enhancing the overall experience for attendees.
3. Online Retail - Opportunity for online retailers to offer a wide range of affordable gala-inspired dresses for consumers to purchase conveniently from the comfort of their own homes.
