M by Madonna at H&M – how very vogue
The “M by Madonna” line is set to hit H&M stores this month. The company’s head designer, Margareta van den Bosch, worked with the material girl to design a new line of apparel and accessories. Apparently Madonna did much more than just lend her name to the line, the company reports that she was involved in the entire process, down to the small details.
‘M by Madonna’ is primarily in neutral palettes including white, black, khaki and grey. Fabrics vary from silk, wool, viscose jersey and body-sculpting lycra. The entire line is embellished with a small ‘M’ logo on linings, zippers and buttons. In addition the ‘M by Madonna’ look includes a complete line of accessories from sunglasses, party bags and clutches and even skinny leather belts.
Here’s my take on this.
I have never been hell bent on dressing like Madonna, but I could pretty easily see myself wearing these clothes. From what I have seen of the line, it does have a very sleek, sophisticated vibe that has a certain appeal for me. I like that the palette is simple – for me that means it will be more versatile with things I already own.
H&M styles are generally designed for people a lot younger than me, so I am not sure how this will fly with the typical H&M shopper. But, H&M made a smart move by choosing a style icon to back the line instead of using a Big Designer name. Even if the styles seem a bit more mature, the younger group may be drawn to it simply because it is “M by Madonna.”
