So 7 more days until Tara Jarmon's designs hit Tarjay.  Anyone seen any of the stuff yet?

Tara Jarmon for Target

Posted Apr 19th 2006 8:31PM by Dakota Smith
Filed under: Apparel



Paris designer Tara Jarmon will soon head to Target as part of the company's use of revolving guest designers. She will create a spring/summer line (a Jarmon jacket, available at Amazon.com for $300 is pictured here) for Target,  following the departure of London-based fashion designer Luella Bartley, a former editor at Vogue and a favored designer of Kate Moss, who is currently showing 80s-inspired, punk looks at the store. Much of Luella's collection sold out at the online store, but who knows how Tara, whose line hits Target in 11 days, will be received? Nevertheless, it's fun to see these designer head to the discount racks.

The May Teen Vogue has a one page thing on her, w/pics of some of the Target pieces:

I've always found Target's "Designer" stuff disappointing. The Mizrahi stuff runs Giganto and seems so plain, while the Luella stuff runs so teensy and looks like the type of stuff I would have loved 20 years ago.


I'm definitely curious to see Jarmon's stuff!

I got all excited when I saw that spread in Teen Vogue.  I think the dress the model's wearing is cute!

I LOVE that shirtdress. I plan to go there on the 1st to get it.

I thought the Luella stuff sucked. I got one eyelit dress that was cute, but that's it. Everything else looked odd.

I think the new stuff looks very cute on page!  I'm excited to go check everything out.  Hopefully the fit isn't all wonky, like most Target things tend to be.

I didn't like Luella's stuff at all!  I do love the dress the model is wearing and the shirtdress though so I'll for sure be checking those out.

I have to say though, even though the dresses are cute...that purse is hideous.

Me too.  It looks promising.

Ditto!


I have ordered two on ebay, only to be disappointed. This one looks like a real option!

The model's dress is cute, and before I saw a lot of positive comments about it on other shopping sites I seriously considered it. I wonder what other dresses and jackets will be available.

I KNOW!!!  That shirtdress might be THE shirtdress I've been searching for!!  I love what Target's doing, all this anticipation is great.  And the fact that the Luella stuff will go on sale in about a week (I want the rainbow criss-cross tank)

I also really like the dress on the model!  Can't wait to see it in person.

That is the shirtdress for me.  I have been salivating over the DVF shirtdress here:



but I think I like the Tara one with the polka dots better.  Unfortunately, I don't have a Target near me, but I am going shopping in a couple of weeks to Target about 3 hours away.  I just hope the Tara shirtdress is available when I go.
