Fab Flash: Loeffler Randall Coming To Target

FabSugar — Tue, 21 Aug 2007 13:00:22 -0700

Hot on the heels of handbag designers Devi Kroell and Rafe New York, Jessie Randall of Loeffler Randall has been tapped as the next designer to create an accessories line for Target!

The collection will debut in early 2008, and judging from Randall's CFDA-winning past designs, I expect fabulous bags with wallet-friendly prices to come out of this!

FabSugar — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Being a mother of twins, Loeffler Randall designer, Jessie Randall, knows a thing or two about the benefits of online shopping. That's why the designer has (finally) decided to bring her array of lustful footwear and clothing online with a spankin' new online presence. "I do all of my shopping online," said Randall. “This is the way it’s going." In addition to selling its collection online, LoefflerRandall.com also offers exclusive styles and options to preorder items. Make sure to check out the blog for insider info on inspiration and fun behind-the-scenes video footage from its Fall campaign. The only thing missing is a sale section, but we're crossing fingers that one will appear soon!

Fab Blab: Designers Divulge Their 2009 Resolutions

FabSugar — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 04:00:22 -0800

I asked you what your New Year's fashion resolutions are, and most of you either want to buy better quality clothing or give yourself a shopping budget. Fair enough. Now let's see what some famous shoe designers, like Giuseppe Zanotti (left, with Eva Mendes), vow to do in 2009.

Giuseppe Zanotti

To follow my own instinct more and less of what others say; to eat less fatty food; to drink less wine; to do more exercise; and to spend more time with my children.

Nicholas Kirkwood

Working with more factories, expanding my range, launching a men’s line.

Manolo Blahnik

To think positive, accept that the world is changing, but not really let it get to me!

Jessie Randall of Loeffler Randall

This Swedish proverb is a good start: "Fear less, hope more; Eat less, chew more; Whine less, breathe more; Talk less, say more; Love more, and all good things will be yours."

Rupert Sanderson

This year, I aim to stick to my guns. I still believe that quality and great design will overcome.

Georgina Goodman

I have chosen to consolidate my collection, offering fewer styles and focusing on extraordinary shoes for extraordinary women.
