As time gets closer to my birthday/HK-trip, I’m quietly sneak a peek at H&M 2008 Fall Collection. And of course, plan my shopping ahead of time! Fall/Winter collection never really applies in Singapore - which explains the extremely hot weather we’ve been enduring over here. However, Fall/Winter also means ‘holidays’ to cold countries towards the end of the year. Tokyo, here I come! In the meantime, I promise you won’t be disappointed with H&M’s new collection. And, are you anticipating Comme des Garçons for H&M Fall 2008?
Colour Me Beautiful
Colour tights! Yes, we’re not getting enough of long, colourful legs. Model, Heather Marks looked really cute in the mini dress with black blazer and high-waisted skirt with pink trench coat.
Knitwear & Socks
Knitwear is a Fall staple - unfortunately, I have sensitive skin and it itches me crazy. I like the boots and blood orange sock with high waisted tulip skirt. Love the stack of bangles too!
Mens Inspiration
Here are some unusual twist to men-inspired cuts for women. I like the idea of giving the look a different texture and silhouette with a burst of bright orange and green. OMG, I want boots.
Geeky Cute
I love that tube-top with the dotted lines! Not too sure about pairing it with wide-leg pants though. I need geeky glasses and did I mention BOOTS?
More Knits & Wide Leg Trousers
You can get pretty inspiration for office wear during the cold season. I love the ultra-high boots… lol and the print flare top. It’s very feminine yet chic.
Look Right
Long dresses are still hanging around. I like how Heather wears flowers on her wrist. Also, we need some hats! More jackets too.
I Want I Want
I want 50s-inspired poufy skirts and bring in more stripes! It seems like ankle boots are sticking around and we’ll have more to shop for!
Love Long
Don’t you love the oriental-inspired top and trench with a bow tied at the neck. So feminine and unique at the same time. Goodbye summer, and hello rain/snow/autumn!

I love these photographs for the H&M trend label garments! I work at H&M in Manhattan, NY, so it’s exciting to see the styling on the models…for some reason I havent seen these shots of the clothes.
As far as the designs go, I think the models do depict a higher quality garment than what H&M actually sells, in addition to the color green in these photos being a lot more vibrant than the selling color, which is actually more of a bluish teal rather than a shocking green.
But I am, and always have been, a huge huge fan of H&M’s pink label garments and absolutely love them. I found customers loved most of the garments, especially the cream dirndil top with the black trim and the wideleg pants…those items sold out almost instantly.
As a whole, I’d say the Fall 08 collection is WAY better than the Spring/Summer 08 collection and was definetly a crowd pleaser
Hey you! Thanks for popping by. Good to know you work for H&M in NY! There’s no H&M in Singapore at the moment so I only managed to see some early stocks for the Fall/Winter collection when I was in HK end of July.
I like the ideal of bluish teal for stockings. Need to stock up more! And, hopefully - H&M in Singapore very very soon. Or else, I’ve to make another trip to HK!
