After the absurd nightmare that was the Missoni collaboration I swore I would never again buy into the Target collaborations. And the products werent even that well made, once I got my hands on it. Perfect example of brilliant PR, but I do’nt have high hopes for Neimans. I also find this collection a bit…..odd.
Nina Arianda will kill in that role and Jaxon is my new BF…loved him and loved his lip curl…
Here is a thought…instead of these over-hyped, dreadfully made collaboration lines, why don’t designers go back to truly affordable bridge lines that don’t fall apart, like when DKNY was affordable?
