You know any ‘rumor’ or ‘speculation’started by Women’s Wear Daily is 99% true.  The paper broke the story of the upcoming H&M collaboration with Maison Martin Margiela yesterday, sending fashion bloggers and online editors into a tizzy.  Never being one to address rumors, H&M kept mum, until this morning of course.

The H&M x Maison Martin Margiela will launch in 230 stores worldwide and online at HM.com November 15th.  The autumn/winter 2012 collection will feature a collection for clothing and accessories for both men and women.

“MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA is one of the most important and influential fashion houses of the past three decades. I am so excited by this radical collaboration which will give fashion lovers around the world the chance to wear special pieces by MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA. This collaboration will be a great and memorable fashion moment,” says Margareta van den Bosch, Creative Advisor at H&M.

“We are very happy to present MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA pieces with H&M, offering a new interpretation of our vision. The democracy of our fashion has always been at the centre of our creativity, and the collaboration with H&M allows us to push this instinct further. We will bring together the contrasting universes of the two houses in ways that will surprise all.” MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA.

Get to saving and get super excited.
