Helmed by creative director Casey Cadwallader, Mugler and the fast-fashion retailer have released womenswear, menswear, swimwear and accessories ($30-$749) that nod to the avant-garde label’s iconic silhouettes. Think bold shoulder dresses, cutout bodysuits for different skin shades, sculpturally-tailored evening gowns, cropped denim jackets, corseted suit sets finished with edgy hardware, drapey leather trench coats and more. There are also sheer gloves and tights, leather baseball caps, trippy silk-blend scarves, bold logo buckle belts, press-on nails, oversized leather tote bags, body chain jewelry and more.
The collection is available at H&M stores in Atlanta; Chicago; Houston; Southern California at the Americana at Brand and Westfield Century City shopping centers in L.A. and Irvine Spectrum in Orange County; Miami; and New York in Williamsburg, Times Square and Fifth Avenue. In-store shoppers are limited to one item per style, and stores will be instituting their usual wrist-banded queue system where customers will be given 10-minute time slots.
In a news statement, H&M reveals that the conversation to partner began before legendary designer Manfred Thierry Mugler passed away in January 2022. Cadwallader was announced as the luxury French fashion house’s new creative director in 2018.
“We are proud to celebrate the legacy of [Mugler] with this collection,” H&M creative advisor Ann-Sofie Johansson says. “We were all honored to get to know Manfred, and it feels very special that he was involved at the initial stages together with Casey and the house of Mugler. Casey has done such an incredible job at paying homage to history, and to the archive, while making the collection totally contemporary. Under him, Mugler has become one of the most innovative and exciting houses on today’s fashion landscape.”
H&M and Mugler hosted a star-studded runway show in New York on April 19 that drew Chloë Sevigny, Amanda Lepore, Lourdes Leon, Pamela Anderson, Irina Shayk, Charlie XCX, Dominique Jackson and more. Dame Pat McGrath created the beauty looks on the catwalk, and the event featured a live cover performance of Stardust’s iconic ’90s club hit, “Music Sounds Better with You” by Shygirl, Amaarae and Eartheater, who also starred in the collaboration’s music video.
Mugler brought the world no shortage of iconic fashion moments, including dressing David Bowie for his 1992 wedding to model Iman; sending Diana Ross down the catwalk at the Spring/Summer 1991 show and designing Demi Moore’s cut-out gown in Indecent Proposal, Cardi B’s vintage “Birth of Venus” dress at the 2019 Grammys and a $5.5 million diamond-studded dress at the music awards show the following year and Beyoncé’s outfits for her 2009 global tour. Lady Gaga and Grace Jones are also among the brand’s musical muses.
Below, see some of the best pieces (many of which are now sold out) to shop from the H&M x Mugler collection. If you snoozed on the initial release, many items are available to buy on eBay and Stockx, while H&M also offers similar corset tops, bustier-style dresses, cut-out bodysuits, long-sleeved bodycon dresses and more.
