Why Are People Killing Each Other Over Roberto Cavalli's H&M Line?
"Apparently the gays raided H&M for the limited edition Cavalli line," says a reader. "I mean reallly? Cavalli's pretty ugly. It's for meth users who like Versace." Apparently, the scenes this week were a total freakshow: Sheer pandemonium in the name of sheer animal print crap!
As Racked reported from the H&M at Fifth Ave. and 51st Street:
It's totally fucking insane. People are fighting, screaming. People are just grabbing anything. It's all gone already. Roberto is standing on a staircase watching it all... All these gay guys swooped in while we were grabbing at stuff, and one of them yelled at this woman, 'Bitch if you grab that, I'm going to fucking cut you.'"
Now that we think about it, Cavalli is sort of like the poor man's tweaked-out Versace. I mean, Beyonce wears it all the time, but girlfriend is from the freakin' South. Anything with spangles looks good to her.
Jennifer Uglialoro told Fashion Week Daily of fans who had been waiting on the sidewalk at the same store since 7 p.m. the night before. "They've been looking in the windows planning their routes."
And by noon yesterday, everything was gone from the 18th and Broadway H&M.
Seriously? This is the street fashion of the season? Slinky cougar prints for mini-cougars and generic Nomi Malone gear?
