Stars Slip Into Missoni to Honor the Brand and Iman on Rodeo's Walk of Style

Hannah Weil — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 08:23:01 PDT

In honor of their respective contributions to the fashion world, both Missoni and Iman were awarded prime real estate on Rodeo's Walk of Style. Each of the style superstars were honored with their own Rodeo Walk of Style awards for their work in the industry, joining a long line of designers and fashion pros whose plaques line the prestigious sidewalk, including Tom Ford, Giorgio Armani, and Donatella Versace. So how exactly do you celebrate such an honor? With the kind of star-studded, Missoni-clad celebrity crew you'd expect to turn out for this kind of high-profile homage. We spotted Nicky Hilton in statement-red Missoni, Alexis Bledel in the brand's pastels, and Alessandra Ambrosio suiting in Missoni's sparkles to fête Iman and the Missoni family.

Missoni Spring 2012

Hannah Weil — Sun, 25 Sep 2011 10:54:35 PDT

Missoni delivered its trademark color and prints for Spring 2012; this time with textural intrigue, giving way to ruffles, fringe, and tassels adorning knit dresses layered over tailored suit separates. The changes and updates to Missoni's zigzagged knits, on their own, don't feel that dramatic; but in viewing the collection as a whole the evolution is clear. Brown fringe and looser, more abstract prints feel less typical of the brand, and a touch more exotic. Ruffles on asymmetrical dresses, blouses, and even, suiting feels Flamenco-inspired and beautifully femme.

Trends: Ruffles, fringe, brights, sheer.
Colors: Yellow, blue, fuchsia, orange, brown.
Accessories: Gold chain and fringed necklaces, charm and chain necklaces and earrings, zigzagged knit bags and clutches, fans.
Key Look: A pink and yellow zigzag print knit dress layered over a bright yellow suit.
Who Would Wear It: Sexy boho types; Margherita Missoni

Missoni lovers all over have long awaited - and dreamed of - the arrival of the iconic prints at a reasonable price. We were captivated with David Stark's pop-up vision, and now Target stores all over the nation have been battling the sheer volume of people trying to get their hands on Missoni for Target clothing and home goods. Due to the overwhelming and enthusiastic response, the site Target.com was also down all day on Tuesday! I'm curious to know: did you wake up super early to try to get your hands on the goods or is Missoni simply not your bag?

Good news: Target.com is back up, and while some of the tech accessories are sold out online, you can still add these items to your online cart today.

Behind the Design: David Stark Dishes on His Vision For the Target Missoni Pop-Up Shop!

Guest Writer — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 09:53:01 PDT

We're so thrilled to welcome back guest writer David Stark! Today, he shares the décor and layout for the Target Missoni pop-up shop he designed!

We were very busy during New York Fashion Week premiering the Missoni For Target line of apparel and housewares in a two-story, pop-up shopping spectacular on the corner of 42nd Street and 6th Avenue, and it was a fabulous project in so many ways. It’s no secret that my love affair with Target is the stuff of dreams, and when the collaboration is with such a cool, iconic fashion house, the ante is upped that much more. This project, though, was also so exciting, because it was a wonderful design challenge. Challenge? Sure. Taking a raw space and transforming it into a temporary fantasy land is always a fun ride for any designer. Working within the Missoni visual language of bold pattern and color, though, is its own world.

Kate Hudson Pushes Baby Bing in a Missoni Bugaboo Stroller

Rebecca M Gruber — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 14:01:58 PDT

Move over baby Skyler, there's a new tot in town strolling around in the year's most fashionable stroller. He may only be 6 weeks old, but Kate Hudson and Matthew Bellamy's son, Bing, is already showing his stylish ways. While Mom and Dad grabbed a bite of lunch in North London today, their lil one rested in Bugaboo's Cameleon stroller with a Missoni fabric package. Currently back ordered, the $270 Cameleon Missoni Accessories Package, which also includes a cotton blanket in the designer's signature chevron pattern, is quickly becoming the fabric of choice for this year's crop of new moms. The stroller is a bit fancier than the Bob Revolution and Silver Cross umbrella strollers Kate pushed when Ryder was little. Also adorning the baby's ride was one of our favorite baby blankets, Aden and Anais' Jungle Jam Swaddle ($50 for four). Looks like Kate and Matt's son is starting out life with some popular choices!
