H&M 2016 Conscious  Spring Summer exclusive Collection consists of curated fluid elegant silhouette and alternates between delicate dresses, arty kaftans and sculpted skirts.

Short dresses and painter blouses ooze nonchalant sophistication, creating an electric and eclectic short-circuit between present and past.

Made with  innovative sustainable materials like organic silk, hemp, recycled linen and Tencel® blends, H&M Conscious Collection 2016 uses ornate embellishments including beautiful beads and rhinestones made from recycled glass. 

H&M is the first fashion company to use Denimite, a material made out of recycled worn-out denim for this eco friendly collection.

“One of my favourite pieces from the collection is the mini asymmetric dress that was inspired by a painting by Gustave Moreau. I love the mix of a conscious, sustainable fabric and an old painting. It’s great to be able to have sustainable clothes that still look red carpet-ready,” says Julia Restoin Roitfeld, fashion director, model and the face of the H&M campaign.
