H&M is Sharing Pre-Loved Styles from Guest Designer Collaborations
Laura McQuarrie — October 22, 2024 — Eco
H&M launched its first designer collection with Karl Lagerfeld in 2004 and to mark 20 years of guest designer collaborations, the international clothing retailer is dropping a celebratory 20th anniversary collection with a sustainable twist.
H&M's famous guest designer collaborations were so well received for making the work of some of the world's greatest designers and brands accessible at accessible prices, and through H&M's pre-loved initiative, fashion fans have another shot at getting their hands on iconic styles.
With this rereleased collection, collectors and fashion enthusiasts can look forward to—once again—seeing designs from the late Karl Lagerfeld, as well as Stella McCartney and Viktor & Rolf. Pre-loved designs were sourced through partnerships with the online pre-loved marketplace Sellpy and global vintage retailers.
