Jason Wu for Target (Image: Target)
Even though Toronto is still a year away from getting its first Target store, Torontonians who love designer collabs and bargains will get a one-day shot at snagging a few pieces from the Jason Wu for Target collection next week. Target will be selling 2,500 garments from the highly coveted collection at a pop-up store at 363 King Street West on February 23—and word is that Wu himself will show up. The line sold out ridiculously quickly across the U.S. (even Michelle Obama got in on the action), so get ready to battle some sharp-elbowed ladies and gents for the goods—there’s a three-item maximum (sorry, eBay resellers), so we recommend a pre-game perusal of the collection online. The best bit (besides the cheap designer duds, of course) is that the proceeds from the sale will go to United Way Toronto. Everyone wins (except for the people who wait a long time in line and miss out on the things they actually wanted).
Which building is 363 King Street West? Google says it’s the Royal Alex but the Target press release doesn’t specify the name of the building…
