What are you doing on 8th March 2012? Don't Know? I'll be queuing!

Following the successful sell-out of Versace for H&M, Marni will follow suit as the next label to create a collection for high street retailer. Consuelo Castiglioni has designed a spring collection which will land in 260 stores worldwide, and online, on March 8th 2012.

The menswear and womenswear will showcase all the elements that Marni mainline has become famous for, from vivid colours to all-over prints. Highlights from the women's collection will include full pleated skirts, dresses, cropped trousers and jacquard knits, in fabrics range from silk to crisp cotton.

"Marni has such a modern touch with everything they do, mixing prints and accessories in a playful but chic way. It's fantastic to see how Consuelo Castiglioni coordinates her designs, matching new combinations of print and colour, with such incredible craftsmanship behind every piece. The collection will arrive in stores at just the perfect time, as a lovely statement for spring."

The Marni collection is the latest designer collaboration for H&M, which has previously collaborated with brands such as Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Comme des Garçons, Jimmy Choo, Lanvin, and most recently Versace. This is truly a wonderful opportunity for everyone to fall in love with Marni, as the fash-pack already do!
