As fall approaches, it's yet again time for another collaboration to hit everyone's favorite fast fashion retailer, and this time it's getting more lavish than ever with the Balmain x H&M collection. Featuring a number of luxurious designs that are priced to move, the Balmain x H&M collection keeps the design aesthetic that Olivier Rousteing brought to the French heritage fashion label as of late.

Heavy embroidery and over the top accents like feathers round off the Balmain x H&M collection to be one of the more daring ones in recent years. The highly anticipated collection will release in-store and online on November 5th, which will no doubt start something of a frenzy (as H&M collaborations often do) amongst the frugally fashion-forward.
