Italian Model Mariacarla Boscono has been gaining alot of press over the past couple of days for being Kate Moss’ replacement for the H&M collection designed by Stella McCartney. Kate lost the contract after being photographed allegedly snorting cocaine.

Boscono who has previously worked for Givenchy and Roberto Cavalli will only feature in the TV commercials.

The collection will go on sale in over 400 stores on November 10.
