We’ve yet to enter a Target collaboration launch party that didn’t instantly make us smile, and last night’s soirée for stylist Kate Young’s new eveningwear collection was no exception. In fact, we’re kind of still smiling about it.
“There’s a little bit of a showgirl and a drag queen in me and I think that it’s much more fun to do [evening wear] than make a bunch of black pants,” Young told us of the collection.
When we heard that buzzy up-and-coming designer Calla Haynes was collaborating with Parisian staple Comptoir des Cotonniers on a capsule collection–at contemporary price points–well, let’s just say we were excited.
Now that we’ve actually seen the collection, in all its oh-so-pretty, French ingenue glory, it’s possible we’re even more stoked.
Paris-based Haynes took time out of researching her next runway collection to talk us through the range, in stores on May 2. See our conversation below, and click through our exclusive gallery of full collection looks. Because spring is finally in the air…
Behold, Mary Katrantzou for Current/Elliott. Really cool, right?
The Kohl’s DesigNation designer collab initiative is chugging right along. The Derek Lam collection–the affordable retailer’s second designer collab after Narciso Rodriguez–hits stores April 5, and they’ve just revealed who’s next in line: Catherine Malandrino.
Get ready, Francophiles.
Even sushi restaurants are doing fashion collaborations these days.
Is Kate Young having the best week ever? Yesterday, she was named the fourth-most powerful celebrity stylist (though honestly we felt she could have been ranked higher) and today the full look book from her collaboration with Target, which we’ve been wanting to show you since we saw the collection IRL two months ago, is finally here.
Never one to let us go too long without news of a new design collaboration, Target has just announced its upcoming partnership with FEED and founder Lauren Bush Lauren. The collaboration benefits Feeding America, a hunger-relief charity with which Target has partnered since 2001.
Yesterday morning, we got to see all 57 pieces and chat with Bush Lauren about the new collection.
It seems magazines have less and less to do with, you know, actual magazines, these days.
Hot on the heels of the announcement of Conde Nast’s new branded TV series, and the company’s investment in e-commerce, comes news that Teen Vogue has partnered with Macy’s to launch a clothing line named for the magazine.
Charlize Theron is said to be launching a denim line.
She’s not the first celebrity we’d peg to get into the fashion game, but according to The Hollywood Reporter, Theron and her stylist Leslie Fremar are “shopping the idea” for a Theron Jeans line.
Beyoncé wasn’t playing around with that whole “Who run the world? GIRLS” thing. The human embodiment of all things wonderful in the universe, who now apparently goes by “Beyonce Knowles-Carter,” has teamed up with Salma Hayek Pinault aka Salma Hayek and Gucci creative director Frida Giannini to create a new female-empowerment initiative called Chime for Change.
Now that Prabal Gurung x Target is behind us, are you jonesing for another affordable designer collab? Well, get ready because Derek Lam for Kohl’s is hitting stores April 5.
