International fashion retailer H&M has opened its first store in Moscow. The 3,000-square-meter store carries the full H&M offer, covering women, men, teens and children.

"H&M is thrilled to expand into a new fashion-oriented market such as Russia," says Rolf Eriksen, chief executive officer. "It is an exciting market and we see great potential for expansion. H&M looks forward to bringing style-conscious shoppers in Moscow the inspiration to make their own personal fashion statement."

This season's H&M designer collaboration is with U.K. catwalk name Matthew Williamson. The collection goes into stores from April 23.
