Designers for Target make high-end fashion affordable
The much-anticipated release of the Prabal Gurung and Target collaboration hit Target stores last week with a bang. Even in Lawrence (where the Nepalese American fashion designer isn't exactly a household name), the pieces were scarce as I excitedly searched the store for the new line.
Gurung, who's known for his structured silhouettes, has been known to dress celebrities such as Lady Gaga, Zoe Saldana and Jennifer Lawrence. His original collections can be found at department stores such as Barnes New York and Saks Fifth Avenue, ever since he launched his first collection in Fall 2009 at New York Fashion Week.
Gurung's Target collaboration line was said to be inspired by the different stages of love. The pieces include psychedelic patterns, neon colors, lace detailing and dark floral. The clothing's fabric choices were a little disappointing when it came to the sweaters, which were crafted with unflattering fits. While the styles were definitely cute, it was obvious the shortcuts that were taken when comparing the Target line to Gurung's pieces in his own collection. However, this is something to always expect when high-end designers collaborate with everyday stores. Overall, the line is definitely worth looking at, especially when it comes to the shoes.
Being the shoe addict that I am, I fully support the belief that footwear makes or breaks an outfit. With many gals still stomping
While many collaborations get heat these days, I hope they continue. How else would we poor college students get our hands on a little DVF luggage or Jason Wu slippers? It's nice to see that these hotshot designers do care about us little people, after all.
around in chunky platform heels, a shoe update is a serious need in this country. Gururg's ankle strap pump and lace-up pump look best in the apple red and black options. I snagged the black lace up booties without any hesitation. The wedge sandals and pointy-toe pumps are also must-have staples. We all know how damaged shoes can get when out and about on weekends, so these affordable, trendy shoes are perfect for us college students.
