We've had 3 years to recover from the pandemonium that was the launch of the first Stella McCartney for Target collaboration. I think that launch will go down in folklore. Hoards of women wrestled one another for a silk top and maybe a dress. The media made fun of it for months. I distinctly that Saturday morning. Doors opened at 8am but I decided to check out my local store at around 11am. I was greeted by a pile of jersey t shirts sprawled through the store and empty racks upon empty racks and bewildered women fighting in the change rooms for any left over items. A tiny little lady gave me a dress that she was clutching which was much too big for her. It was silk, navy with long sleeves. I still wear it on a regular basis. It's held up pretty well.
A rather secretive launch was held in a sprawling mansion in Sydney last night, but Grazia magazine broke the news of the designer even before the guests had arrived. One item I really love/want, but not sure I can face the crazy women again!
