The Kelly Wearstler x H&M HOME collection marks the retailer's first collaboration to include furniture, introducing a 29-piece home collection alongside an eight-piece ready-to-wear capsule. Built around the idea of democratic design, the range combines Wearstler's sculptural aesthetic with adaptable forms and everyday functionality. Modular furniture anchors the release, with pieces designed to stand alone or connect into larger configurations that accommodate different living spaces and layouts.
Highlights include the POMA accent chair, which can be paired to form a loveseat, the modular SOLUNA lounge chair, the angular AVERN armchair, and the ORTRA sofa table that can be combined into a circular arrangement. The home collection is complemented by decorative objects crafted from wood, marble, ceramic, and metal, including the MORRA lamp, COVA candlesticks, CYMA vases, and the MONA clothing rack. The accompanying apparel capsule features a coated cotton trench, cropped leather jacket, sequin skirt, vase-print slip dress, and embroidered essentials. Priced from $30 to $749 USD, the collection launches globally on September 3.
