For the past couple of weeks , fashion lovers had been wondering when and how the next H&M designer collaboration would be announced. Their questions were answered at the Billboard Music Awards.
Sunday night at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards , Balmain’s creative director and designer Olivier Rousteing told reporters that Balmain Paris would be pairing with H&M for a fashion collaboration.Rousteing was excited for the opportunity to pair up with H&M.
"H&M allows me the unique possibility of bringing everyone into the world of Balmain to get a piece of the dream,” said Rousteing.
H&M’s collaboration with Balmain will allow customers to buy high-end clothing for very low prices.
“ I love all of H&M’s fashion collabs. People who love clothes like I do are able to get pieces from some of the most expensive brands for relatively low prices,” said senior Jayla Harris.
At the Billboard Music Awards, Rousteing gave people a sneak peak of the collaboration. Fashion models Jourdan Dunn and Kendall Jenner were both wearing clothing from the collaboration.
“I didn't like the H&M for Balmain pieces the models had on at the Billboard Awards. I hope that the other pieces look better,“ said junior Melaney Sloan.
H&M announced that the designer collaboration would become available in-store and online on Nov. 5.
