With Spring upon us, Spring collections have been blooming left and right. The latest one to pop up is Loomstate For Target's Spring '09 line for men and women. The affordable retailer teamed up with Scott Mackinlay Hahn and CFDA award winner Rogan Gregory - who's no stranger to Target collaborations - to deliver an edgy and eco-friendly line that uses 100-percent certified organic cotton. Rest assured design has not be sacrificed in the process. Plaids, easygoing tees, board shorts, relaxed skirts, and breezy dresses all give off a stylish beachy vibe.

This Just In! Loomstate for Target

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 09:56:13 -0800

Funny, just yesterday, when I was preparing to speak on a panel about sustainable fashion, I was talking about how Target should do an eco line. The fashion gods were listening because I woke up to the news that designer Gregory Rogan is once again teaming up with Target and this time with his Loomstate line.

Launching just before Earth Day, April 19 to be exact, Loomstate for Target line will offer environmentally friendly goods for women and men. That means environmentally sensitive materials like 100 percent certified organic cotton and sustainable fibers like linen and silk. Said items will be priced between $15 and $45.

I snapped up a couple items from Rogan's GO International line for Target, which was also eco-friendly, so I'm expecting the same sensibility: nature-inspired tees, everyday hoodies and relaxed separates. Nice.

Online Sale Alert! Rogan For Target Clearance Sale

It's no secret I'm in love with the diffusion lines at Target. And it's definitely no secret that I love a sale. So when those inexpensive designer goods get even cheaper, I pounce like a jackal in the wild. To make room for the Richard Chai collection, Target is having a giant clearance sale on its Rogan line. Nothing is more than $11.24, this shift dress is $9.99 (down from $39.99), and surprisingly, the sizes aren't too picked over. Get it while the getting's good.

On Our Radar: Rogan Gregory for Target

FabSugar — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 02:00:22 -0800

This one is for all you eco-fiends out there: Rogan Gregory has been tapped as the latest designer for Target's GO International.

Gregory, a former Gap designer who won the prestigious CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award for 2008, helms three labels: ethical T-shirt label EDUN which he runs with Bono's wife Ali Hewson, Loomstate, an all-organic line of t-shirts and jeans, and his own edgier line Rogan.

On Our Radar: Target Temporarily Moves Into Barneys

Barneys New York on Madison in NYC and in Los Angeles are temporarily making room for Target merchandise. Starting this Friday until Sunday in NYC, and then May 16 until May 18 in LA, fans of Target's Go International collections can purchase Rogan for Target, priced between $15 and $45.

Before you get all confused about this seemingly odd relationship, keep in mind that Barneys sells Rogan Gregory's primary lines, Loomstate and Loomstate for Barneys Green. Knowing that, the relationship doesn't seem so far fetched. There will be a 3-piece limit per customer, but those who miss out can head to their local Target when the collection lands on May 15.

This sudden relationship is attributed to the fact that both Target and Barneys are feeling the consequences of the recent economic downturn. I hope things get better soon but in the meantime, I'm a fan of this friendship!
