Off the Rack: Altuzarra for Target Review


Off the Rack: Altuzarra for Target

This morning, I wrote a post about what I ordered online from the just-launched Altuzarra for Target collection; now here are some photos I snapped in the afternoon at one of my local Target stores. Truth be told, there wasn't a huge selection, but there were plenty of sizes left for the items they did stock. I didn't find the sold-out belt I wanted (boo) but I was able to scope out the fabrics and get a feel for sizing, too.

Altuzarra for Target Is Here: What I Bought

The highly-anticipated Altuzarra for Target collection has launched at Target stores, TARGET.COM and NET-A-PORTER.COM. I didn't stay up last night to shop but I logged on a few minutes ago (around 7:50 am EST) and was able to purchase two of the three items I wanted: The sumptuous red wrap-effect satin-jersey dress ($39.99), which I fell in love with after seeing how well it looked on Naomi Watts at the launch party, and the embroidered cotton-blend twill dress ($49.99), which is a fresh update on the LBD and features the collection's signature heron motif. I plan on wearing these to an upcoming semi-casual fall wedding lunch and dinner. I placed my orders from Net-a-Porter rather than Target.com because while both sites offer free shipping and returns, Net-a-porter offers fancy packaging. And it just feels more luxe. There, I said it.
