Jason Wu designed gown for First Lady Michelle Obama

Target recently announced a fabulous partnership with fashion designer Jason Wu. We are beyond excited about this collaboration! The NY-based talent has created beautiful garments for women, such as the lovely gown worn by First Lady Michelle Obama at the 2009 Inaugural Ball.

The limited-edition collection at Target will include women’s apparel, handbags and scarves. The line will embody Wu’s signature style of feminine sophistication. Prices will start at $19.99 for a covetable item from the artist.

Jason Wu for Target will be available on Feb.5 at most Target stores and at Target.com. Are you looking forward to the new collection?

Nasvik’s signature design of vintage-meets-modern is evident in the bag’s gold chain links and the small chic shape. Her handbags usually retail for over $400. The more affordable design is exclusive to Target’s Red Hot Shop and is available for around $80.

To commemorate the fabulous fashion, Target will re-launch over 30 styles from 17 of the past GO International designers. The GO International Collective will feature dresses from favorites, including Alice Temperley, Richard Chai, Thakoon, Jovovich-Hawk, Rogan, Proenza Schouler, Rodarte, Libertine and Behanz Sarafpour, Erin Fetherston and Libertine. The limited-edition collection will be available at most Target stores and Target.com, starting March 13 through April 10. Prices will be very affordable, ranging from $24.99 to $44.99.

Which of the designers from the GO Collections is your favorite?

Thakoon for Target 2008

If you missed out on the chance to buy a fabulous dress from one of Target’s GO International collections, you are going to get a second take next year! The retailer recently announced that it will feature a line of 34 pieces from previous guest designers, including Zac Posen, Tucker, Luella Bartley, Tara Jarmon, Paul & Joe, Behnaz Sarafpour, Proenza Schouler, Libertine, Alice Temperley, Jovovich-Hawk, Rogan, Richard Chai, Erin Fetherston, Jonathan Saunders, Thakoon, Tracy Feith and Rodarte. The exclusive collection is a celebration of the fifth anniversary of Target offering affordable luxury, and will be available in Target stores and at Target.com on March 13 through April 13, 2011.

I can’t wait to see what fab designers Proenza Schouler and Libertine come up with, as I missed them a few years ago when they debuted their clothing lines at Target. Also, I am looking forward to checking out the selections from my favorite collaborators, Alice Temperley, Richard Chai and Thakoon. What designer are you looking forward to? Please leave a comment of your favorite look so far.

Prabal Gurung

Just read on fashionista.com that designer Prabal Gurung is rumored to be the next GO International collaborator for Target. OMG! I love Gurung’s dresses, which have been worn by actresses Katie Holmes and Leighton Meester, and of course, First Lady Michelle Obama. His talents were recognized by the industry as well, as he is one of the designers of the 2010 Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation. A line with Target could be a dream collection in our budgets! First, William Rast. Now Prabal Gurung! This is going to be amazing time for affordable fashion!

UPDATE: Just wanted to emphasize that the rumor of Gurung coming to Target has not been confirmed yet. Here’s hoping that we get more news soon!

Target’s new GO International collection debuts on Target.com and at selected Target stores today, September 12. Designer Gaby Basora for Tucker teamed up with the retailer for a line of boho chic styles that you’ll want to pick up for your Fall wardrobe. I love the romantic styling of the peasant blouses in pretty butterfly or floral prints. The art of layering is made easy with looks, such as a camisole dress underneath a button down dress topped with an must-have olive green trench. Tucker’s blouses would look fabulous with a black bomber jacket and a brocade skirt from also the line. There are several great looks for transition dressing, with print dresses to wear now, and wear later with a stylish sweater vest. Are you excited about the collection?
