The draw was her line of trench coats, kimono dresses and catsuits for the Swedish retailer H&M, which debuted on March 10 at H&M's newest store in Hong Kong and in April at H&M in Shanghai. In these cities, shopping is as important as stargazing, and that's why the $2 billion firm made its first moves into Asia here: H&M wants a share of China's $60 billion apparel market.
