For the Love of Target

Mizrahi bids Target farewell (Getty Images)

2008 is the last year you'll be able to get your Isaac Mizrahi fix at Target.
The designer just took a job heading up Liz Claiborne and their flagging womenswear (upscale suburban momwear) brand. An improvement for the Liz label, but a sad day for broke women who dug his classic cuts and whimsical movie-inspired party dresses at under $50.
Who could possibly step in next? In my dreams, it would be Diane Von Furstenberg-- queen of the wrap dress and master of the just-shy-of-loud print.

Jonathan Saunders

Speaking of Target, word is that London designer Jonathan Saunders is working on a Go! International collection.
I, for one, am not too excited. Have you seen his runway stuff? Even if they marked that down to $39.99, I probably wouldn't buy most of it. Way too exaggeratedly geometric.
He's also done a capsule collection for Topshop due to release any day now.
