Ben-Amun’s Blockbusters

With Halloween having come and gone I thought the chance to dress as my favorite fictional character (ahem, Wonder Woman) had expired for the year. Little did I know, H&M is preparing to launch a new collection that may just make today’s bestselling fiction tomorrow’s fashion reality!

In collaboration with Trish Summerville, the costume designer for the book-to-movie series The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, H&M has created a 30 piece collection of leather-heavy, dark-hued apparel inspired by the series’ anti-heroine, Lisbeth Salander. Since pairing jewelry with everything possible is one of our favorite pastimes here at Ben-Amun, we thought it would be fun to follow H&M’s lead and experiment with a few fiction-to-film-to-fashion inspired looks.

Starting in the middle of December you can pick up some daring separates from H&M’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo collection. The look won’t be complete, however, until you add some edgy Ben-Amun pieces!
