The H&M Spring Icons Selected by The Weeknd is a complete wardrobe of essential pieces, chosen by one of the world’s most celebrated artists. The collection mixes utility and streetwear silhouettes with tailored lines, bringing together the important menswear statements of the season.
“I had a great time selecting my Spring Icons at H&M. I love the mix of urban pieces like bombers and hoodies with tailored shirts and blazers. Every piece is both effortless and fresh, which is just how menswear should be,” says Abel Tesfaye, The Weeknd.
“Abel’s taste and style perfectly fits the menswear mood of the season at H&M. He has such a great eye for the little details that matter, and for mixing together updated men’s classics for the perfect tailored streetwear look,” says Andreas Löwenstam, the brand’s men’s head of design.
There’s a sharp street style look to the H&M Spring Icons Selected By The Weeknd collection. A beige cotton bomber has the perfect details, from its ribbed hem to the round terry black patch at the chest. Hoodies are key pieces, with a flattened kangaroo pocket at the front, either in black or in olive. Wear over raw-edged jersey T-shirts that sit loose on the body and match with tailored pants functionally updated with a drawstring waist. Outerwear is important, such as the biker jacket in pleather for a light modern feel, or the zip-up work shirt in faux suede. Meanwhile refreshed tailoring brings clarity and sharpness, like mandarin collar cotton shirts, a semi-constructed blazer that’s the perfect outer layer, or a lightweight double-breasted belted spring coat that’s the quintessential finishing touch.
The collection will be available in every H&M store that carries menswear, as well as online, from March 2nd.
