Even though it’s only been a few months, it feels like it’s been ages since the Giambattista Valli x H&M collaboration was first announced, and now we have just one more month to go until the collection is finally in stores worldwide. To get us both pumped up and prepared to shop, H&M released the official campaign images shot by Kyle Weeks and styled by Giovanna Battaglia Engelbert, as well as photos of the full collection today, and my personal level of excitement has just gone through the roof. Despite my affinity for fancy frilly frocks, this time I’m all about the men’s collection of animal print suits, cool sweatshirts, and anything/everything with paintings printed on. Of course, I’m going to try to get my hands on a beautiful gown or maybe a more wearable maxi dress with ruffles, but I’ll be happy if I walk away with a tiger-print suit, or a polka-dot blouse, or maybe an embellished hoodie.

The collection will hit select stores worldwide and online on November 7th, and you’d better get your shopping plan ready to go by the time that day rolls around. Just like previous H&M designer collabs, this one’s going to fly off the shelves in no time.

Full collection after the jump!
