OMG! LIBERTINE at Target!!!

i. am. TOTALLY. FREAKING OUT!!

I happen to be a huge fan of the team behind Libertine, so I was super excited- and actually, super surprised- to see that they are the next designers for GO international.  Libertine is a pretty avant-garde brand, but, hey, I'm not complaining! 
So... thanks to the Budget Fashionista (though I don't necessarily agree with ANY of her statements) for the heads up, and get ready to SHOP!!

(oh.. and btw, Temperley London is next!)

Libertine for Target's Go International

June 1, 2007 07:31 AM

Libertine

Cindy Greene and Johnson Hartig of the clothing line Libertine is the next design group on tap for Target's Go International line. The line is set to be in stores at the beginning of July.

Libertine is an interesting choice for Target because Greene and Hartig don't necessarily "design" pieces as much as deconstruct/reconstruct vintage pieces and then imprint them with silk screened images. The duos collection for Target is much more preppy, very LaCoste like, that doesn't incorporate much of the designers vintage roots. I am not expecting that much from this line (although I love the floppy hat). 

While I love Target's ability to get rising design stars to create affordable lines, it does seem that the International part of "Go International" is a bit missing.
