Yes, we’re having another conversation about Versace’s H & M collection. If people were over the Moon with enthusiasm before the collection landed, excited beyond belief when the fashion show took place, it’s time for them to fall flat on their feet again.
Donatella Versace, the creative force behind Versace may have worked with the world’s most popular fast fashion label, but that doesn’t necessarily mean she shares the same views ad the democratic high street fashion brand. Some rumors (well, actually a bit more than rumors, but let’s call it that and hope there’s still a slight chance for them to be inaccurate) circulate, saying that there was this special campaign in place for Versace H & M collection, involving normal New York women called “Model New Yorkers”.
The initiative was supposed to highlight women from New York wearing pieces from the above mentioned collection. The operation, however, hit a wall of rejection as Donatella didn’t greenlight the photos. Why, you may ask? Because the women don’t fit Versace’s branding! Donatella, honey, what did you expect signing on with H & M? The average Hennes and Mauritz customer has almost nothing to do with your beloved tall, platinum blonde, skinny young women! Ah, designers! Whoever said fashion people are nasty?

Hahahah, she is such a funny woman. It is very obvious she never sees other people than fashion people and has never set a foot in a H&M store anywhere!! :D
Well, we are all skinny in a good way and breathtaking naturel beautiful, so since that’s the case I am not going to ruin that look with ugly clothing grazie donna Versace!
Donatella Versace alarms me and not in a good way.
I am not a fan of her or her designs what so ever.
She looks like Janice from the Muppets. Nuff said…
DollyBird!! Now that is not fair to Janice from the Muppets! ; )
@ Ellington – Lol…poor Janice!
Hahahah, I read a lot of comments at the website of my Daily Mail Pleasure last night also Janice was mentioned and names like ‘ninja-turtle’ or ‘Back to the Future’ and a lot of more funny comments there and today again….I laughed a lot; love that British humour :D
(A fun guy at FB taught me there are no guilty pleasures just pleasures; I stick to that :) )
Long queues in London with a lot of not so skinny girls and some guys. Amsterdam was a bit calmer. Austerity? Recession? Where? The small Occupy Amsterdam camp looked so endearing not that far from H&M…:)
Versace’s Spring-Summer 2012 is very pretty.
