>>Note: You’ve been battered to death by the ads on the tube, bus stops and on TV… but will you be there in the queues tomorrow morning for Comme des Garcons x H&M at the Oxford Circus branch. After a deliberation time of 5 seconds, I’ve decided on a no, for the clothes but yes for a video report and general observations. See you there. I won’t be fighting you for that polka dot shirt or black trench. Don’t be alarmed if I accost you with a dicataphone…
The Comme has arrived…
i’ll be very much looking forward to your report (i hope you’ll be posting it here?). it’ll be interesting to see how mental it gets at these things…i don’t think i could bare attending myself.
Hey hun, your comments are closed on your link post but I’d love it if you could add me to your UK blogs.. that’s if you like me of course! I thought H&M CDG had been released already! I’m sure its out in Manchester.
I’ve been waiting so long for this collection, but I’m so dissapointed… Love Comme des Garcons, and love the way H&M gives me a possibility to get me some design, even though I usually can’t afford it. BUT… I saw the collection in a window yesterday, and found out that I didn’t like it at all…. So no, I wont even bother to go there I think. Sad.
Last year’s stampede put me off. Also, is that 60‚Ǩ for a simple dotted cardi? No thanks.
Would love to see your report! I wonder if this year will be less crazy, as CDG is bound to attrack a different crowd than Cavalli.
I don’t like the sudden advertisements on my Bloglovin’ roll either…
What that is so wierd… your comments have mixed me and sj up.. I am the one saying I’d love you to link me but it’s showing up asif sj has said it!!
Elle- ohelle.blogspot.com just to make it clear! haha
Yeah I think it’s already out in manchester and in the trafford centre, tons of people have been walking around town with the cdg shopping bags??? I need to make a venture on my break at uni and find out!

muah xx

i’m going for same reasons, and am very curious about the jackets.
Oh how I wished I was in the UK!
Is it only available at the Oxford circus branch? i can’t get there till mid-afternoon, wonder what will be left..!
@ hek
totally agree!
i was so looking forward to that collection and now find myself being quite disappointed. thought it would be a colourful, unique, bold selection, but no – it’s all black and white and gothic and what’s with those polka dots? gosh, i could buy a black-and-white-polkadot-bag everywhere!
Nah I’m style hunting tomorrow, have a deadline to work on.
finally! – good items
i saw it yesterday but its nothing for me
Looking forward to this video!! =)
Despite being a huge fan of Comme des Garcons this H&M collection isn’t doing anything for me so I’ll be giving it a miss too.
Can’t wait to see the report. It’s going to be insane – be careful!
Looking forward to the report! Haven’t asked my sisters to fight the crowds for me on this one, as I’m not sure the clothes are nice in real life, sometimes it’s better to save up for the real thing…
I’m still trying to decide whether to go for, um, *reporting* purposes!
9am is hideously early to be on Oxford Street (well, for me!) and I expect hardcore shoppers are already starting to queue right now..
Love CDG but I’m not going to be checking out the collection either, not as exciting as I thought it would be!
I would be happy enough with H&M in my country, let alone designer collections! Thanks for the link by the way Susie 🙂
Somehow I’ve never gotten excited about the opportunity to buy “cheap stuff that everyone else will be wearing.”
The collection doesnt float my boat to be honest. The only item I would want is the dress coat with the detailing but no enought to spend my morning queuing up at Oxford Street with the hangover from hell! Looking forward to seeing your review of it all from the comfort of my warm office!
There have been an onslaught of the adverts haven’t there? That in itself tends to put me off, also the horror stories I’ve heard from similar designer collections at H&M I don’t think I could stand my ground!
Look forward to your report, good luck!
just got back from the h&m shop here in barcelona.
it was my first time actually being in a queue. it was kinda mad but still great fun.
bought 2 shirts, the polka dot polo and the polka dot scarf.
i do know it’s only some pieces full of polka dots… but anyway that’s what fashion is all about… fun fun fun!
cant wait 4 the video.
I saw you!!!
Hi Susie – I saw you this morning too!
I found out about it from your blog so thank you 🙂
u saw me?!
hey lost you in the menswear section. was great to bump into you again anyway.
i didn’t get that tailcoat in the end. the fit wasn’t great. currently wearing one of the blazers though.
i wonder how that guy is getting on listing all his stuff! i’ve been ebay watching and there isn’t much up yet.
I’ll be going to the Vancouver store on Friday to pick through the leftovers.
Like sheep to the slaughter we are.
Had to work today. Would like to see pics though.
I bought the Stella McCartney silk overalls off of ebay a couple of years ago – was thinking this morning I need to find more occasions to wear them.
Northern Ireland wasn’t deemed good enough to get the collection. And when I orginally phoned up to ask, the polite but clueless salesperson didn’t even know what Commes des Garcons was!
Really? It completely snuck up on me. Wait, why am I not shopping?
