Target Announces Continued Design Push, First with Alexander McQueen Collaboration

Per our earlier reporting that retailer Target was going to try and stay the course by keeping their focus on strong design, despite recent losses and customers believing they’re too expensive because of said focus, they have done just that by announcing their first, post-Isaac Mizrahi partnership with name designer Alexander McQueen, as part of what they hope will be an ongoing series of joint ventures under the title “Designer Collaborations.” Could it be a big gamble in a time of uncertainty? Sure, but we applaud the retailer for giving it a go and sticking to their nicely designed guns.
