We were just getting over the hype of the brand's last collaboration.
We'd jumped up and down, drooled over the celeb launch party pics and queued up for our little bit of Versace for H&M fashion memorabilia, when the high-street giant sprung this on us...
It's already time to move on and crank up the high style factor once again as H&M announces its next hook-up - with Italian label Marni.
Talk about fast fashion.
The Italian brand's founder, Consuelo Castiglioni, has designed a spring collection for men and women which will hit stores worldwide on 8th March, 2012.
With famous fans of the Marni label including Anne Hathaway and Kate Bosworth, we're delighted at the prospect of being able to wear similar-style creations from the fashion powerhouse.
Consuelo said of the project: "I wanted to create a true Marni wardrobe by revisiting all our favourite pieces in signature fabrics and prints. As always, I love juxtaposing prints and colours, mixing modern tribal with Bauhaus graphic and adding sporty utilitarian elements."
Creative advisor for H&M Margareta van den Bosch said. "Marni has such a modern touch with everything they do, mixing prints and accessories in a playful but chic way. It's fantastic to see how Consuelo Castiglioni coordinates her designs, matching new combinations of print and colour, with such incredible craftsmanship behind every piece."
This sounds like a match made in diffusion heaven - Marni's vibrant, clashing patterns are apt for appropriation by the high street. H&M is no stranger to funky prints and layered separates, so we suggest you start cleaning out your spring wardrobe now...
