H&M X Rabanne REVIEW/HAUL +: Shopping Experience Part 1: A HUGE Disappointment 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽

The not so good, the bad, and the ugly of the H&M X Rabanne collaboration drop. #rabanne #pacorabanne #hm #fashion #collaboration

[@BBLongLegs]

I really enjoyed your video! I live in California, and there is usually one store that carries the whole collection for all the collabs.

[@pce12345]

Ooh I love your sweater 💞 I got the green tracksuit (I'm a lady). I do actually like it. But wasn't really keen on the other stuff. The army style pants and sweater were a bit OTT for me. And didn't like the 60s patterned stuff. Wouldn't wear the silver stuff but was cool

[@Merboy007]

The hangers are beyond basic. They could have at least made them chrome/metallic like to match the aesthetic of their line. I remember how in the past...these collabs (Alexander Wang, Kenzo etc...) would come with some really cool hangers. It appears that with each new H&M designer collab...that the quality and attention to detail continues to decrease severely while the darn prices keep increasing for the garments. With that being said...I'll give them props for at least giving us TWO free gold metallic earrings. 🤷‍♂ Not having that Gold metallic shirt that that model wore for the announcement party is such a missed opportunity on their part. Literally the only thing that blew mw away when I saw it.

[@kendalllee46]

When it was announced. I wasn’t immediately impressed and still not that gagged! I got a few pieces, but Mugler was top tier!!

[@staccatolo]

Some of the pieces had potential, but having it come out 6 months after another major H&M collaboration was a mistake. Especially when Mugler's was so good in comparison.

[@soeliauniverse]

I went to the opening and to my surprise there weren’t a lot of people ether. There was a guy I met online who went the the v.I.p event last night and informed me that the quality wasn’t good. Which made me think to immediately change my focus from the garments to the Accesories. I got the vintage looking clip bag, I got home brand new and the bag was falling apart 😭. I stayed with a necklace and one of the disc bags which are probably in my opinion better then a majority of the stuff offered. Wish the men’s was better merchandised and focused on tailoring. Like you’d mentioned not all stores had the range that was on the website. Seems like their focus was geared towards online sales instead. Mugler was way better. Hope they do better next collab

[@Maymaymayok]

Mugler was terrible!! The worst collaboration ever!! As proof, months after the launch, it was still all over h&M stores. They probably ended up burning them down! Yes, Rabanne is one of the biggest designers in history. What were you expecting? Him to make clothes the standard luxury worth thousands and thousands and sell them for $400 through a collaboration with h&m????

[@kendalllee46]

@@Maymaymayok Well I didn’t think it was terrible. I can’t speak on the people who had the store experience, it wasn’t available where I live. The rabanne collection is similar to the mugler in the fact that both brands have pieces that are very similar to mainline. I expected what I got and expected last time. A collection with similar pieces that are higher quality for h&m and the minds of the current creative director to create. Also I stocked the app for days after the Mugler collection after everything sold out, picking up thing’s people returned and it wasn’t easy pickings. The rabanne collection launched yesterday and still has full size runs on a lot of stuff!

@@soeliauniverse people are broke, dear!!!

[@phantomthread4385]

I just subbed. Great review. Which store was it? Here in London there is a ton now on ebay. Doesn't seem to be selling though!

[@staccatolo]

I went to the flagship store in Chicago in the States.

[@lennymazliah2026]

H&M website listed what stores were carrying the collaboration and what part of the collection they were carrying. I spoke to an exec at my store while I was second in line in my que out of nine. She said because of the excessive amount of returns from the Mugler collection that the store and overall inventory was much smaller than previous collections. There were only two US stores that carried the men’s.

[@staccatolo]

Geez! I had no idea! And I'm really surprised about the returns for the Mugler collection. I'll be paying more attention for the possible next release.

[@silverfish314]

ordered the trousers. I received confirmation - four days later I get an email to inform me my order has been cancelled due to no stock. Im beyond disappointed with H&M - they’ve lost me as a customer

[@MateuszMizioek]

In Poland cental Europe in one store in the state capital Warsaw but I wasn't there and I don't know what it was like.

[@pacs1life2]

thx , u safe me 350 $ on this jacket :)

[@meep-vm5tc]

the chainmail stuff isnt too bad but everything else is horrid im sorry like the only thing that gagged me was the fringed headpiece (which I got for Beyonce’s movie premiere)

[@staccatolo]

The headpiece is very Renaissance appropriate.

[@Maymaymayok]

Dear, just time for you to put it on, hangout with pals, then the day after. The threads will be hanging out!!!

[@Maymaymayok]

Toussaint Louverture.

[@leahdanville9968]

I just got one of my packages from the drop and its all so damn ugly 😂 The silver suit is cheap af, feels like a costume. All this is going right back to the store. Probably the worst quality I've felt from an H&M collab

[@staccatolo]

Thanks for the comment, because I was wondering what that silver suit felt like. This was overall just completely disappointing.

[@leahdanville9968]

@@staccatolo It's straight basura. The suit isn't even lined, so it feels like wearing a sheet of stiff cheap metallic fabric. I'm honestly surprised that no one is talking about how expensive this collection is. I feel like it's the priciest H&M collab I've seen to date. I have 2 other packages coming and I can't wait for them to get here so I can send them right back and replenish my bank account.

[@staccatolo]

@@leahdanville9968 I think you’re right about it having the most expensive price points. Balmain X H&M had a $600 women’s piece, but this one had something in the $700 range. I wouldn’t mind if the quality was good.

[@Merboy007]

@@leahdanville9968 I agree that the silver suit does feel rough BUT to be fair...it has to do with the fact that the suit is made out of some sort of special metallic threads to keep with the theme of the metal materials that were used throughout the collection. The issue is more the fact that it does seem to crease up super fast but when the suit is crease free it does look amazing. H&M should have given the suit a better description. I'm still debating if I should return mine.

[@gengarrules777]

whatever h&m you went to for the launch party has just cancelled their christmas party lol

[@headlesschicken99]

Return nothing, sell it!

[@staccatolo]

LOL! It doesn’t seem like anybody wants it 😂🤷🏽‍♂️

[@headlesschicken99]

@@staccatoloHave you seen the unbelievable amount of the collection on ebay 😳 and what some try to charge? I'm waiting to see how that gets going as I went on a totally mad spree last night and will soon have the dilemma what to keep, return or flip 🤣🤣

[@staccatolo]

@@headlesschicken99 the sellers on eBay have lost their minds! I bet those prices will come down later this month when they realize there's no hype.

[@headlesschicken99]

@@staccatolo yes, agree. Asking £400 for £80 piece is insane. That's when others should go in and cut them with more realistic price. I plan to keep some of the things and if happen to end up free, great. That's the goal. Won't be investing more than a few hours staying to flog sth, life's too short for that

[@Maymaymayok]

And... Rabanne has died. Someone messing things in his company and his legacy.

[@staccatolo]

It's really sad to see.
