Noted fashion label Prabal Gurung has launched a budget-conscious collection for Target called Love. Released just in time for spring, the collection features Prabal Gurung’s signature whimsical, feminine vibe with bright prints and vibrant flashes of color.
In the past, Target did quite a few well-received designer collaboration collections.
Within just days of its release, many items from the Prabal Gurung for Target collection sold out in stores throughout the nation and online. I was able to get a few dresses and tank tops.
The dresses are fun and perfect for spring. There were elements of mesh insets, neons, floral prints, lace and leather accents. Needless to say, the collection is on trend and fashion forward.
While the collection is chic, I did have some concerns. I had a hard time thinking of an occasion to wear some of the items. The dresses in particular were ultra-feminine to the point where the wearability factor eluded the collection.
However, some of the tops offered a redeeming quality. A few tank tops in solid colors and fun, yet wearable prints would go well tucked into a bell skirt or a pair of tapered pants.
In terms of quality, many of the pieces were constructed of 100 percent polyester. For the price point, the fabric could have been higher quality.
However, it’s a moderate price compared to some previous Target designer collaboration collections.
A few pieces are available at the Target Supercenter on Siegen Lane. The Prabal Gurung for Target collection items make for great statement pieces in an outfit.
With price in mind, I recommend purchasing one or two pieces from the collection to avoid looking overly trendy.
