We went back to Target to give McQueen for Target a second go—after a number of positive comments about the collection here, as a matter of fact. It was cuter than we gave it credit for after our first look (still bitter after Thakoon, we guess.) We still say the sizing’s off—nothing fit us right, anyway, if you’ll excuse the extremely prejudiced assessment. But: as we were told here, the military jacket is cute, as was the one-shouldered dress with the pink detailing—of course, sold out online, but available in stores. We’re scouring nearby locations for anything else we missed—but we’re still more excited about Matthew Williamson for H&M.
The dress above is still available, and the whole collection’s on eBay if you have the stomach for it: McQueen for Target tattoo dress, $79.99
The dress is cute, but I wouldn’t pay $80 for it. McQueen or no McQueen.
I actually liked some of the pieces in the Thakoon collection. The floral dress fit well, although the green and blue trapeze dress…not so much.
On the whole I have been really disappointed by the special designer collections for Target.
I also just saw Opening Ceremony for Uniqlo…meh.
Nice dress, I also just saw Opening Ceremony for Uniqlo…meh.
