Missoni for Target ... what's in store?

Lucky you if you snagged some limited-edition Missoni for Target.

At most stores across the country, including Oklahoma City, the shelves were picked clean. On Sept. 14, a day after the launch, I saw a few zigzag patterned ballet slippers and one lone blouse on the rack at Target  on Northwest Expressway. I didn’t search the aisles, so more  items may have been available. I kind of doubt it, though. This is one in-demand collection, even in Oklahoma.  The chain’s website crashed more than once on the day of the launch.

Target has said it will be stocking more Missoni products, so check back often if you missed out or just want to add more to your stash. And it’s possible what you want or need is still available on the Target website. Most everything is out of stock, but a few goodies can be scooped up. Need a two-piece babydoll set or a dinner plate? They’re still in stock. So is the iPad 2 case.

The collection — Target’s largest limited-edition collaboration to date with more than 400 pieces – is scheduled to be in stores through Oct. 22.  The collection includes women’s, men’s and children’s apparel and accessories as well as housewares adorned with the Italian luxury label’s famous zigzag print. Products range in price from $2.99 to $599.99, with most items totaling less than $40.

If you know of a Target store that still has a few precious pieces, share.
