Matthew Williamson hits the high street

Just as we are starting to recover from the mad crush last week when the Comme Des Garcons range hit the rails, H&M have just announced who's up next. British designer Matthew Williamson - who won a prestigious British Fashion Award for Red Carpet Designer Of The Year on Tuesday night - has been named as the latest designer to collaborate with the high street chain on a capsule collection. Best known for his eclectic mix of colour, print and embellishment, Williamson, who recently split with Emillio Pucci where he has headed the design team for the last two years, is sure to produce a collection polar opposite to Rei Kawakubo's minimalist Comme range. The range is due to hit stores on 23 April and will also feature Williamson's first venture into menswear.
