H&M's Conscious Exclusive SS20 Collection
An exclusive collection created by H&M that highlights the classics and basics that are in our wardrobe with a more elevated approach. The release was in late March and features a very minimalistic color palette consisting of black, white, beige tones, frill details, creams, and warm blues. Originally launching back in 2012, H&M has brought back this sleek and glamorous collection for SS20.
This collection includes a majority of sustainable materials and fabrics that are not only beneficial towards the environment, but especially during a time currently during a pandemic. Although, you do have to pay the price for the quality of what you receive therefore it is on the relatively higher side of a price tag than normal fast fashion companies. Some of the pieces include, flowy sleeves and v cut necklines, beige pants, gowns, minimalistic accessories, simple strappy heels, oversized sunglasses, and even some pant suit sets. H&M writes on their website that this collection was “inspired by Le Train Bleu, the elegant sleeper train that ran from Calais.” (Photo sources; H&M)

At the rise of Covid-19 many of us first questioned the timeline of fashion week and would we see the regular calendar continue - the question weighed over many of us for months! It was refreshing to see design houses and designers across the globe take advantage of the uncertainty and plow into production mode - thus my interest in Jerri Reid New York - The Black Designer based in Brooklyn New York wow’d instagram with his latest collection paying homage to the Black Is King film which debuted earlier this year in July. I was taken aback at quick of a turn round the young designer produced and released his well crafted designs reflecting some of the films most memorable moments.
