@ the Missoni thread turning into a debate whether Jessica Alba is hot or not.
And back to Missoni and people saying that they don't buy clothes at discount stores...
In recent years, a great number of top designers have created lines available in discount stores so that the masses can afford them -- Vera Wang for Kohl's, Jimmy Choo/Versace/Lanvin for H&M, Alexander McQueen/William Rast for Target, Rachel Zoe for QVC, Charlotte Ronson for JC Penney, etc. The diffusion lines help the labels and consumers when the economy is struggling and people aren't s ing out the big bucks for the original lines.
Anyway -- Missoni isn't that good that it should have shut down the Target website, but some of it is cute. I like the home products (towels, etc) more than the clothes.
