Target Debuts Mossimo Spring 2009 Collection

LOS ANGELES, Mar 27, 2009 / FW/ — Fashionable and practical continue to be the mantra for the Mossimo for Target collection for its Spring 2009 offering. Designer Mossimo Giannulli envisions California-chic for the warmer spring and summer days as he presents a range of on-trend and classic styles featuring bold colors, patterns and lightweight fabrics that are reasonably priced.

Proposing a mix of fashion-forward, timeless feminine silhouettes, Mossimo Giannulli created tiered ruffles that are incorporated into tops with punchy floral graphics, lightweight skirts and one-shouldered tops. Dresses are the easiest way to pull together a fresh and no-fuss look.

Whether the style is structured or flowy, cheerful colors in bright coral, cobalt blue and green, as well as graphic prints in black and white make a statement in any situation.

Shorts range in length to suit personal style preference, from the knee-grazing Bermuda style to cuffed or pleated short shorts – either look can pair well with a basic tank or a cardigan, available in a rainbow of colors.

Wide-legged pants and straight-cut jeans can easily transition from day to night when coupled with a scoop-neck blouse and chunky-heel sandals, and are available at a price that won’t sting the wallet.

The Mossimo for Target Plus Size women’s collection offers new takes on wardrobe staples that brighten up any wardrobe as summer approaches. Sizes range from 1X to 3X and include a variety of fashion-forward long- and short-sleeve tops, and smocked dresses, as well as pencil skirts and bootcut jeans. Jewel tones and floral prints add punches of color to dolman- and flutter-sleeve blouses. Basic knit tops are revamped with draping, ruching or braided trim.

The Mossimo for Target Spring 2009 collection will be available at most Target stores nationwide and at Target.com beginning in March.
