Menswear, womenswear and homeware that bring luxury and high street together again. Lots of black leather, just as we like it, bold color pieces, prints that scream Versace and accessories to die for. Save the date and don’t miss the oportunity to add some Italian glamour to your wardrobe!
We’ve been teased with lots of leaked campaign images for the Versace for H&M collection, but now–finally–the whole collection has been revealed–Vogue UK had it up early today. It will hit stores on November 17, so start making your list now. Prices will range from $17.95 for crazily-printed men’s undies, to $299 for Anna Dello Russo‘s studded leather dress, according to WWD. The other dresses range from $149 to $249, and accessories like a silk purse will set you back $199. Expensive for H&M, but cheap for Versace, which is the whole point of these collabs, isn’t it? There are even some homeware items, like pillows and throw blankets.

The star, who is a personal favourite of Donatella Versace, will be joined by Nicki Minaj. "I am so pleased to share with so many the excitement of this collaboration with H&M," Versace told WWD. "To have my friend, the great, the amazing, the one and only Prince, and the extraordinary Nicki Minaj both perform at the event, will create exactly the feeling of joy and glamour I want this partnership to express."
Updated Thursday July 28, 9am: David Beckham has become the latest name to sign up with H&M as part of its all-star repertoire. The footballer and fashion icon has teamed up with the Swedish high street store to launch his bodywear range for men. The partnership will be launched on February 2 2012 worldwide in time for Valentine's Day.

"The collection for H&M is the essence of Versace. For the collaboration we've brought back from the archives, as well as from more recent collections, some of the icons of Versace, such as the bright prints, the Greek key and daring cuts. I can't wait to see how H&M's wide audience will make these pieces their own," says Donatella Versace.
