As a frequent shopper of H&M, I am definitely anxious to see this line come out. When H&M has guest designers, (like the Versace fiasco a few months back), they have an event in which people wait in line for hours to purchase their clothes. Events like these usually have the line selling out within an hour.
Marni is "famed for its original prints and inventive spirit" (according to hm.com), and I believe the designer stays true to its unique essence in its line for H&M. Typically Marni uses bold prints and colors in order to produce an interesting collection. The color scheme seems to revolve around emerald and shamrock greens, beige and wooden browns, blacks, whites, and dark royal blues. The most appealing thing to me about this line is how it emphasizes the neckline for both men and women (although I'll admit, it's much more flattering and interesting on the women's line!). There are little things that tie, white collars, and accessories that make your eye link straight to the neckline. I feel as though I had to look through the line twice to even really see all of the clothing because the first time around I was fascinated by the chic ribbons and fancy necklaces.
Here are some of my favorite looks from the Marni for H&M women's and men's line:
This dress is my absolute favorite of the entire line. I just love the colors, it's made of silk, and it just looks like it would be something so fun to wear this upcoming spring. Not to mention the intense, dark shades that make this look go from cute and chic to fierce and bold. My absolute favorite thing about this piece is that it doesn't necessarily need anything to add to it. The shades are definitely a great addition to the outfit, but without it the dress still speaks for itself.
As you can see, this collection's not just for women--the men's line is quite unique as well. The shoes in this outfit are interesting, but to be honest, I've just never been much of a sandals-on-men kind of gal. Other than the shoes though, I love this look. I love the suit blazer paired with matching shorts. I am in love with the two-color tie, I think it adds a lot of style to this otherwise plain-looking outfit; and next to the black polka-dotted shirt, you can't help but focus in on these two pieces in this outfit. 
I really can't get enough of these killer shades! They just look so unique, I'm in love. I think the shirt in this outfit makes this look very casual but still fashion forward. The detailing that goes into this shirt is amazing, the colors are beautiful--and you can see the stitching in the focal design. What makes this shirt most appealing to me are the black sequins that tie together at the collar. I think that piece brings a little class and sophistication to this otherwise fun and carefree look.
Again, not a fan of the mandals. BUT, I am in LOVE (okay, maybe lust) with the design of these two pieces: matching collared shirt with silk shorts. I love the way that the collar goes down the center and is outlined in black, which I think makes it stand out more considering all of the white polkadots. I just think it's about time men started sporting more polka dots, wouldn't you agree?
This is probably my second favorite outfit of the collection. Again, the way Marni is able to draw focus to the neckline is amazing, and makes the whole outfit come off as more elegant and classy. I love the style that it brings with the white collar and black strings to tie in front. I think we're missing more things that tie in our clothing these days ladies, who else misses the cute look of a little black bow or ribbon in your outfit?Images taken from Vogue
