Targeting Alexander McQueen

By

Lauren Garroni

imageA story that couldn't possibly be true, although we hope it is true (but probably not): the rumor that Target may sign Alexander McQueen as their next Go International Designer. The popular, inexpensive collection has in the past snagged big names like Luella Bartley, Alice Temperley, Proenza Schouler, and Erin Fetherston. And although they have a deal with Sigerson Morrison in the pipeline, there's never been someone so high profile as McQueen. Neither side would comment on the rumor, though McQueen has been wetting his feet in the discount market recently. In 2006, he started his own lower-priced diffusion line McQ, and he designs footwear for Puma.
