NYC Designer for TARGET
PHILLIP LIM
Target has just inducted a new member.The news of Target's latest partnership with New York Fashion Designer,Phillip Lim,for Fall-has been floating on internet,for quite some time.This collection,for which we can hardly contain our excitement will hit the stores and Target.com on September 15!
Phillip Lim,had us almost lusting over the diffusion lines.He has himself admitted,that,he's intrigued with the idea of design evolution.Lim has also shared his,views with all of us on the partnership with,TARGET:
*One of the reasons I wanted to collaborate with Target is because I felt that together we could create a collection that would inspire–one that is cool and chic, but still very accessible.*
So,be still our beating hearts! The first ad for Phillip Lim's|Target collaboration,has DROPPED!So,yesterday Fashion Foie Gras,instagrammed a snap-the very first snap for an ad campaign of this budget-conscious,much awaited collection.
YES-YAY-YES!That is Lim's most commercial offering,PASHLI SATCHEL,we see.And,yes I know it's amazing and its $895.And,brace yourselves-because this "baby" might be only for,how much?Well,its just $35 - And that is just a glimpse of their marketing merchandise.I guess,"September"-might make up for the whole year.
Well,on the whole Phillip Lim has raised the level of Target clothing.While,previously Target's collaboration,with designers like,Prabal Gurung,Tracy Reese,Missoni,Kate Young,Neiman Marcus,Lauren Bush,and well many more-all these are still working for Target,and this September,you can expect a good heel collection from all these designers-However,they were not somehow able to strike a landmark,signature look,as Lim could.
Okay-So I guess-we all are officially excited-Because,the campaign picture-has alot of elements,that may interest us all.As,I mention them-Please Don't Scream or I guess,you already would have-if you'd watched The Wolverine.
- TAO OKAMOTO,who played against Hugh Jackman in The Wolverine is featured in Phillip Lim's ad campaign-all the way from lightning the silver screen!
- A shirt-dress,that is paneled with floral and could possibly be from Spring'13
- A leather back-pack.Now you've all experienced and heard the stories of how this "divine invention" saves the day!
On the heels of collaborative collections with many designers,the new “classic fall palette of neutral tones and prints” (which comprises more than 100 pieces) will range from $20 to $300 for apparel and $20 to $60 for accessories,including a trench coat,dresses,and bags (Lim’s most commercial offering) for the ladies, as well as shoes and a leather moto jacket for the gentlemen.And,yes that is all but September is full of surprises-So I leave you with this video to calm yourselves and keep your eyes wide open for the eesome,3.1 Phillip Lim collection!
