Our hearts were all aflutter with the news
that Target is trying to entice Alexander McQueen to do a diffusion line.
It looks like Alexander McQueen could be the latest designer name -- and one of the most prestigious -- to link up with Target's Go International program, which showcases capsule collections by guest designers. According to industry sources, the British designer is in talks to work on a collection for the Minneapolis-based retailer. A spokeswoman for McQueen declined comment Wednesday.
If the designer does ink a deal with Target, he would join an ever-growing lineup of marquee names who have produced collections for the brand, including Luella Bartley, Alice Temperley, Proenza Schouler and Richard Chai. In addition, Anya Hindmarch and Sigerson Morrison both have collections in the pipeline for the retailer.
This is really mayjah! How Alexander McQueen makes his couture, cutting edge style affordable enough for Target is currently the source of much speculation around here. But we can't wait to see it.
