H&M Has a Chloe Crush

h&m goes chloe.jpg
It’s no shock that H&M rips off Chloe all the time, and we suspect their designers have a small shrine to Phoebe Philo somewhere in their studio.

But what’s funny is that H&M’s Chloe obsession seems to go beyond the clothes.

Let’s take a close look at their recent online campaign, which stars Freja Beja in her pre-haircut days and also features a gorgeous blonde with a bob… Anja Rubik.

The Freja and Anja combination is what’s power-packing Chloe’s current ad campaign.

We can’t help but wonder if this Chloe - H&M casting is a coincidence…

Or if H&M realizes they can harness someone else’s aspirational branding identity with a few simple model steals.

well, it IS Anja actually. and there's also a third girl in the campaign... and guess what? she's brunnette (thinking of Shalom? you better stop).

The third model in the H&M campaign is Tasha Tilberg, as I have already reported in my blog a week ago.

Daria has also been appearing in their print ads.
I'm sure this was a calculated marketing effort on H&M's part to tap into the high-end gloss these models exude...
