The Weeknd and H&M Partner Up to Release Spring Icons Collection
The Weeknd has partnered up with H&M for the upcoming release of the brand’s Spring Icons Collection.
The line will feature a mix of street style and tailored pieces, and will include; hoodies, blazers, bomber jackets, t-shirts, button downs, trousers and jeans. There will also be items selected by the Star boy with a touch of his very own XO clothing featuring the “XO” logo.
Andreas Löwenstam, H&M men’s head of design, said “Abel’s taste and style perfectly fits the menswear mood of the season at H&M. He has such a great eye for the little details that matter, and for mixing together updated men’s classics for the perfect tailored streetwear look.”
According to XXL, The Weeknd spoke on his partnership stating, “I had a great time selecting my Spring Icons at H&M. I love the mix of urban pieces like bombers and hoodies with tailored shirts and blazers. Every piece is both effortless and fresh, which is just how menswear should be.”
H&M also released a statement that’s stirring up some excitement;
“There’s a sharp urban look with Spring Icons Selected by The Weeknd. A golden beige cotton bomber has the perfect details, from its ribbed hem to the round terry black patch at the chest. Hoodies are crucial, with a flattened kangaroo pocket at the front, either in black or in olive. Wear over raw-edged jersey T-shirts that sit loose on the body and match with tailored pants functionally updated with a drawstring waist. Outerwear is important, such as the motorbike jacket in pleather for a light modern feel, or the zip-up work shirt in faux suede. Meanwhile refreshed tailoring brings clarity and sharpness, like mandarin collar cotton shirts, a semi-constructed blazer that’s the perfect outer layer, or a lightweight double-breasted belted spring coat that’s the sharpest finishing touch.”
The line is set to hit stores March 2nd and will also be available on the H&M website.
