Lovely reader Kristen tipped us off this weekend that Lanvin x H&M had taken eBay by storm–and not in a particularly good way.
Currently–along with the less-crazy prices of $300 for the pink one-shoulder dress and $150 for a pair of shoes–there’s a t-shirt posted on the site at a Buy It Now Price of $1,559.64 (converted from GBP 999).
We love the line, and totally get that there will be markups on eBay, but really? A $1,000 for a t-shirt? At that point, you might as well go buy yourself a Lanvin collection dress.

How to defeat the object of affordable on the High Street in one easy step. The person that’s selling that t-shirt is not a fashion lover that’s for sure. May they have bad fashion karma forever more…
The probably already do.
I can imagine him/her sitting in a damp room staring at a dimly lit computer screen in the wee hours of the night pounding away feverishly on the worn down keys of a fully loaded MacBook, wearing a one-piece sweatsuit, limited edition Uggs/Crocs/or some other equally unappealing footwear, and a Snuggie, eating microwavable Kraft macaroni and cheese that’s cooled down and recongealed, while his/her overweight tabby cat nudges up against him/her. This, while World of Warcraft runs in another window.
I am so flattered you made use of my tip Lauren!!! Love all the comments too y’all! Whenever the evil H&M buyers these days cop the collection and sell it at double or tripple,there is always a ton of leftovers even years after. I still find Stella’s and Jovovich Hawk stuff from H&M and Target online!!!
Lauren, is that dress in the thumbnail for your “Lanvin for H&M: the Full Collection” the same tobacco colored New Look dress you picked up? It’s one of my favorites!
This is quite ridiculous.

I got this tee in store from the collection. It’s fun, but $1000? No freakin’ way.
I think the actual Lanvin t shirts are cheaper than that even
OMG!I received today my order from H&M and I ordered by mistake two of these. I am so bored of selling it to ebay but I would do good money :P:P

If you really wanted to buy this shirt I know a way to get it half price!!! Or even 80% off! I have been playing around on a pre-paid Visa and giftcards auction site! I won a $200 Visa for $8.50 this morning! Hmmm…. only 5 more to win and I could be wearing this shirt for only a hundred dollars! http://www.auctionpenny.ca/ 1000 is quite pricey for a t-shirt though!!
