The complete look book for Prabal Gurung’s collection for Target spring 2013 capsule collection has been released. With only a few months left before Target opens its first Canadian stores, could this be the first Target designer collaboration available for purchase in Canada? We are certainly hopeful. The exciting 80+ piece collection includes dresses, skirts, blouses, and jackets as well as accessories such as sandals, totes, and jewellery made with Gurung’s signature brightly hued and patterned signature.

In preparing the vibrant spring collection, Prabal Gurung was reportedly inspired by romance and “a girl’s journey through the different stages of love.” Fans of Gurung will recognize his graphic flowery prints that have been re-imagined for a more wearable look. “It was an exciting challenge to interpret my aesthetic into a mass-produced product,” Gurung explained to New York Magazine, “but the collection is true to my signature style.”
