Bring on November 17! Only three weeks and one day until the Versace for H&M collection hits stores, and to keep our obsession piqued, H&M have released an enticing behind the scenes video from the making of the TV commercial.

On a elaborate gilded set, (production designer Jan Houllevigue explains how they used all the gold paint in London), director Johan Renck seems to have created a fabulous vision of a model torture camp. In one scene, Lindsey Wixson runs frantically backwards on a giant Versace hamster wheel, while over in the ‘shadow room’, she has to repeatedly climb up a staircase, only to fly backwards to the bottom again. Meanwhile, over in the ‘manège room’ models are trained to march in line in a cage.
