Fashion’s Night Out #FNO09: Anna Sui for Target pop-up shop
September 11, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · Leave a Comment
I recently reviewed the Anna Sui for Target collection so I knew what to expect upon entering the store. The store was cutely decorated in newspapers covering the walls with the headline “Anna Sui for Target”. It was laid out like a closet, with each Gossip Girl character the collection was based on, grouped in separate areas. Models lounged in chairs and sofas throughout. My favorites were the “Blair Waldorf” dresses. I tried on the blue belted mini dress but it was way too big. Unfortunately by the time I arrived, all of the selection had been picked over and only mostly extra large sizes were left. So I guess I’ll be picking up my pieces in Target when the collection rolls out in stores on September 13th!

Wanna dress like your favorite Gossip Girl character? Now’s your chance. Anna Sui is the next designer to collaborate with Target for its Designer Collaborations program, and her capsule collection was inspired by the fashion’s of Gossip Girl. Whether you prefer Blair Waldorf’s high-society style, Serena van der Woodsen’s everyday haute couture, Jenny Humphrey’s rocker chic or Vanessa Abrams‘ haute hippie style, you can get them all starting in Target stores and online from September 13th, timed to the third season debut of “Gossip Girl,” airing Monday, September 14 (9:00-10:00p.m. ET) on the CW, through October 17th.
From the designer:
“When I was in Asia last year, girls kept asking me about the different areas in New York City by referring to them as where the characters from “Gossip Girl” live,” said Anna Sui. “The show is such a phenomenonand so fashionable, so I really wanted to create a collection reflective of the four main characters.”
