A special Racked operative is at the H&M store at Fifth Ave. and 51st St. to experience the joy, the rapture, the insanity that is Roberto Cavalli for H&M. These are her stories.
We're inside! From our operative: "It's totally fucking insane. People are fighting, screaming. People are just grabbing anything. It's all gone already. Roberto is standing on a staircase watching it all. The supermodel Jessica Stam is standing next to him wearing one of the dresses, smiling. I got my hands on one thing. I don't know what it is—all these gay guys swooped in while we were grabbing at stuff, and one of them yelled at this woman, 'Bitch if you grab that, I'm going to fucking cut you.'"
UPDATE 10:18am: "I have never seen this many people fighting, punching each other in the face. Seriously. Over cheap junk! Except it's cheap, but it's expensive. It feels cheap, it looks cheap—I grabbed a jacket that costs $350, and it looks like something you'd get at Wet Seal. Total crap. This is really bad. It might be the worst thing I've ever had to experience. I'm shaken."
