Mother of collaboration! After what seemed like an eternity, the moment we've all been waiting for is finally here! The Alexander Wang x H&M collection will hit stores on 6th November 2014. Rihanna was the first celeb to give us a glimpse of the collab a few months ago, wearing matching separates in the form of a grey crop top and leggings. If that wasn't enough to get you excited for the collection, then your're gonna looove the lookbook!

The collection is exactly what we've come to expect of Wang. It's sports luxe at its best! The color palette is muted, dominated with mostly grey and black. The collection consists of thick sweatshirts, strappy dresses, panelled leggings, boxy and structured outerwear, relaxed pants, crop tops and accessories like boxing gloves (and normal ones), beanies and duffle bags - with the signature "WANG" logo-ed on most pieces. I cant wait to get my hands on these gorgeous pieces especially the sweatshirts. (I've been in a sweatshirt phase lately!) 
I cant even begin to describe how strong this collection is! 

Read on to view the entire lookbook and tell me what you think of the collection in the comments section.

Fashion Forward, one of the most anticipated fashion events of Dubai, recently concluded its 4th season.
