Missoni made Target history, with its Zig Zag patterned knit wear. Target has been having well known designers come into its store since about 2007. Target first struck gold with the launch of the Missoni for Target line. An Italian designer, who has their clothing priced upward into the thousands and sold at Bloomingdales, Missoni did not last long in stores or in the endless world of the internet for that matter. Missoni for Target ranged between 2.99-199.00, designer duds for cheap. Target, has already been called a higher end store compared to the likes of Wal-Mart and K-Mart, even as far as calling it Tarjay (said in my French accent). So when they announced Jason Wu everyone was watching for it. Do you know who Jason Wu is yet?
Jason Wu, a new comer into the fashion world has become a force to be wrecking with. He became someone to watch after he was the designer behind the Inaugural gown for the First Lady Michelle Obama. He has continued to make waves by dressing other celebrities. Now who would have though he would have continued the Missoni magic when Jason Wu for Target came to Target stores everywhere. So like Missoni, Jason Wu didn't last nothing but 2 hours on the floor of Target. Target.com Who started its sale at midnight sold out of stock of everything.
Everything was very sophisticated in its color and style. A very classic look for the spring season.
Pale Pink / Nude coloring paired with black
Navy Blues paired with Reds
small floral prints
yellow/ gold tops
black small accordion skirts
and canvas purses and so much more.
It is a Parisian classic style, with nothing over the top to throw it off.
In other word, one could easily wear it to an office, out for lunch or for a date. a simple look for the classy woman.
Jason Wu hit the mark with his Target line a week from Fashion Week. Now was it a hit because it was designer or was it a hit because of the thought of a great partnership . Can't wait to see what what other designers will step up to the Expect More, Pay Less challenge of Target
As I look at the clothes all I hear is Adele in my head. although she is becoming a bit over played, if you listen to the words she uses you'll love what she has to say. She is a classic voice with soul. Adele has the chops to speak to your soul, and then make you feel like crying, no matter how you felt before you started to listen to her.
Peace and Happy NYC Fashion Week.
