The new H&M Studio collection is finally here, and it's a mood-boosting Gen-Z dream

“There’s a new mood of exuberance in the air making us all want to dress up in fabulous clothes again,” commented Ann-Sofie Johansson, Creative Advisor at H&M. “It’s reminiscent of the va-va-voom spirit that defined fashion in the 1980s up to the early 2000s.”

“For the SS22 collection, we wanted to bring powerful, big-personality fashion back into the spotlight, offering versatile pieces that will inspire joy.”

Featuring everything from statement prints to super OTT embellishment and an electric colour palette, this collection is a dressing-up box of joy inspired by musical Gen-Z muses with expressive individualism at the heart of their aesthetic.

The campaign, which was directed and photographed by Reto Schmid and styled by Georgia Pendlebury, stars break-out model of the moment Devon Ross shot in South East London.

“For SS22 we had boundary-breaking musical muses on the mood board,” revealed Linda Wikell, Concept Designer for H&M Studio, of the creative process. 

“We were inspired by their commitment to swerving clichés and expectations, both in their clothes and their attitudes. The collection is all about no-holds-barred fun, intended to help our customers build their very own optimistic new look.”
