Following the success of collaborations with the likes of Lilly Pulitzer and WhoWhatWear, Target is now teaming up with a famed a Finish design house to launch the 'Target x Marimekko' collection.
The Target x Marimekko collection is a summer line featuring pieces by the popular Finish design house. The new collection will feature over 200 items, all of which are inspired by Finland's four distinct seasons. In particular, the line plays on the juxtaposition between the country's long winters and its seemingly everlasting summers. With bold geometric patterns and bright colors, the new line is both playful and summery. Yet despite the high-end designs, nearly every piece in the collection will be priced below $50.
The new collaboration caters to the ongoing demand for affordable collections from high-end design labels.
