Anna Dello Russo's travel accessories for H&M

Rabu, 12 September 2012


Finally, a luggage collection to shout about has arrived on the high street. Editor of Vogue Japan Anna Dello Russo has collaborated with H&M to bring glamorous, playful and vibrant travel accessories to the masses. The collection, which features shoes, jewellery, sunglasses and bags, represent Anna's love for ornament and her taste for excess and amusement, with vivid turquoise and gold and her signature Italian baroque style.


The turquoise trolley suitcase (£99.99) with gilt motif is gorgeous and there is a matching beauty case (£69.99) for you to prop on top with a gold crown luggage tag. For those travelling with a carry on, there is a holdall bag (£34.99), which is also perfect for a weekend getaway. 'I tried to capture that sense of freedom, joy and excitement,' says Anna. 'Besides, when we travel we always want to bring our special pieces with us.'



'I like the idea of a trolley that can contain the whole collection and is complete with a crown-shaped tag: airports will be less grey and impersonal if you bring such a token of travel-ware with you. It’s like a dash of fairy tale magic, or Alice’s white rabbit as a door to a new dimension.'



The collection features ornate jewellery with bracelets shaped like snakes, chunky gold cuffs and thick chains. My favourite jewellery set is these earrings (£14.99) and the gold cuff (below, £29.99).



'Accessories are vital' the fashion icon says.

'Not only they allow you to play with fashion however you like, marking your outfits with a personal touch. They are also an essential tool to give new life to what you already have in your wardrobe: wear a necklace, a bracelet and earrings, hold a clutch and top it all off with a hat, and everything becomes new. Accessories are like vitamins to fashion: you should use them liberally as such.'


Creative advisor at H&M, Margareta van den Bosh, says: 'There is something feisty and over the top in this collection. Mostly gold, it is truly spectacular: these pieces will give a new life to everyone’s wardrobe. The idea is to have luxury that you can play with, at an affordable price.'

The collection lands in H&M stores on 4 October.
