I love your previews! I like the mix of prints, I can’t wait to layer some of these pieces. The skirts look big, even on the models, but we’ll have to see the items in person. My favorites are the striped dress and the floral dress, they’ll look great belted.
The coat and the dress from the preview are lovely, as are the full skirts, the black granny dress, some of the blouses, and the OMG shoes. The rest of it is kind of meh.
One thing that really bothers me about many of the GO collections is the smock dress styles. It would be great to see a Target-related designer who isn’t leaving soon (Isaac) acknowledge that styles which nip in at the waist are flattering to many body types, and would make their core audience happy.
i love it!
re: chelsea
i believe it’s a “resort” collection…aka a summery collection that comes out around christmas for those people that cruise~and~resort on the holiday.
i live on an island–so i’m super excited. i love the print on prints.
I think that Thakoon really dropped the ball. This is crap.. I don’t think the majority or Target shoppers require ‘resort wear’. I mean jeez, maybe some late winter apparel would have been better. This is so yuck.
Love, love, love. For sure I’m gonna buy three tops and a dress. (And I think that shows A LOT of self restrainst–because this line is so adorable!)
And LOL I have to agree with TKC. What is up with all the swimsuits 365 days out of the year? I wish target would invest more into fun accessories. Jonathan Saunders didn’t have any (but that’s okay cause the line was atrocious anyways). The last time there were fun accessories was with Erin Fetherston (the heart necklace, the red bag, and the head bands).
Memo to target: necklaces, little wallets/coin purses (in interesting textiles), canvas totes, and hats should be a part of the range.
Those black shoes give quite the cankle effect. Who wears oxfords with no socks? Ouch!
I wish there was a tshirt with the pattern from the first coatdress and the last skirt. And I second the need for accessories! How about a totebag, makeup bag, sunglasses etc.
Can’t wait! I love everything, not since Jovovich-Hawk had I been this excited. I did not care for the styling using those oxfords and flat hair.. (and I DO love oxfords…)

Love the skirts. This collection is going to be hard for me to pass up…
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:59 am
LOVE! I’m going to buy each of those dresses!

Thanks for posting retrogurl. I LUV this whole line.

It’s really similar to the Patrick Robinson line no?

Love the collection. But the shoes are adorable. Will be on the look out for them, too.

I can’t believe it’s getting so many rave reviews. I hate everything. Bleh.

Cute!
But why does Target always think we are swimming all year round to always have a suit in their collecetions?
