Global fashion retailer H&M has unveiled a comprehensive collaboration with American designer Kelly Wearstler. The new venture encompasses both a 29-piece home interiors collection and an eight-piece ready-to-wear fashion capsule. This move marks the first time the brand has introduced furniture within a designer partnership.
The full assortment of the H&M x Kelly Wearstler collaboration explores design as a daily ritual and emphasizes modular adaptability, sculptural forms, and a cohesive aesthetic that bridges living spaces and personal style. The interior collection features modular furniture, decorative objects, and functional pieces that can be reconfigured and adapted to different spaces. The ready-to-wear capsule includes structured outerwear such as a coated cotton trench with layered leather collar and a cropped leather jacket, relaxed trousers, a sequin skirt, a vase-printed slip dress, and a contemporary take on the classic white shirt with shoulder pads.
