According to Telegraph.co.uk, founder of Marni, Consuelo Castiglioni said “I wanted to create a true Marni wardrobe by revitalizing all our favorite pieces in signature graphics and prints. I love juxtaposing print and colors, mixing tribal with Bauhous graphic adding sporty to utilitarian elements. “

H&M has a short film that features stars like Milla Jovovich, Drew Barrymore, and Jessica Chastain wearing the new collection at an LA premier. You can see the film on Youtube.
 
 
If you are in NY, the following locations should carry the collection:

Marni is founded by Consuelo Castiglioni in 1994. She work with fur and treated the fur as if it were fabric. She created modern wearable fashions and began Marni, named for her sister. That also then created a need for something to wear underneath the furs and she was then known for her bold prints, color and overt sex appeal. She then developed a collection for men in 2007.

Happy Shopping!
