Marni for H&M is the Next High-Meets-Low Line for the Fast Fashion Brand

Just recently, we heard the exciting news that Versace is planning a spring line for H&M; now, there is even more exciting news -- Marni for H&M is coming!

Marni, the high-end Italian fashion line founded by Consuelo Castiglioni, will be releasing a line for H&M on March 8, 2012. The label is perfect for H&M as its collections are targeted at younger fashion-lovers who love boldness and color. Marni's designs are typically centered on colorful, offbeat and artsy boho prints and patterns.

The Marni for H&M collection will comprise both men's and women's lines. Judging from the sneak peek, it looks like there will be a few cute shift dresses, chunky necklaces and items featuring Marni's signature polka-dot print.
