Donatella Versace launches the Versace for H&M Collection at H&M Regent Street, London

My Wristband, I’m in! |
I got to Bluewater at 8:45am this morning and there was a que of about fifteen people already. I was already pissed because I could have been there much sooner if it weren’t for the bloody traffic! We were all given a coloured Versace wristband and given an allocated time slot to which we were allowed to shop the collection for ten minutes only! I was in the third time slot and I had started to worry about this. However, at this time I didn’t know what pieces this store would have on offer but I knew there’d be something I’d want.
Supplies! |
I went for supplies and sustenance and returned at 9:30am for my time slot…Oh if only I’d have headed over sooner, as half my group was already in the store and forming a que at the barriers. I went in and watched as the group ahead of me rummaged through the rails, leaving a path of destruction in their wake. It’s Versace…How dare they! The staff booted them out after their ten minutes then had a quick tidy up. I had spotted my studded skirt on a mannequin, now I had to locate it’s whereabouts in the store. Where the F*** was it?! It was our time to go in, we all ran! I grabbed the studded top as I swung past the rail it was so nicely displayed on, then searched for the skirt. I had instantly noticed that the trench coat wasn’t there, it will have been a London-only item.
Urgh, the que ahead of me |
“Forget the coat, it’s too late for the coat…find the skirt!” I said to myself. There were none left, holy shite! But alas…the one on the mannequin! I searched for a member of staff and when I found her she was already being interrogated by another woman who wanted the skirt from the mannequin. It was too late, I failed my quest! So to console myself, I picked up everything else 🙂 I had arms full of the stuff and the hangers by the way, are gorgeous chunky black flocked velvet with the gold Versace logo at the top. I could have got so much more, I avoided the printed jeans (which I know I will seriously regret come spring next year!) and also avoided the leggings as there were about fifty pairs still on the rail but got the bits I actually liked. I did have my eye on a stunning blue/green heart printed dress with fringing detail, and I managed to get that, sooooooo happy! The website had apparently crashed within minutes and people were struggling to get to checkout with their goods, but congrats to those that did because by the time I got home the website still wasn’t fully functional and the leather trench and studded skirt were both sold out.
If you went on a Versace for H&M quest this morning, what did you manage to get? Tell me all about it 🙂
