It has been over a decade since Karl Lagerfeld’s collection debuted at H&M, and the Balmain for Swedish giant collection will hit stores tomorrow.

H&M is one of the first retailers to foray into designer (and style icon) collaborations. Designers had a variety of different strategic motivations for collaborating with H&M. Some were seeking wider global publicity and for Stella McCartney the collaboration provided the opportunity to spread her ethical views to a wide consumer audience and resulted in H&M substantially exceeding its commitment to using organic cotton.
