<description><![CDATA[Retailer showcases commitment to amazing design at remarkable prices with new limited-edition eco-friendly line for men and womenMinneapolis (March 2009) — Target is teaming up with Scott Mackinlay Hahn and CFDA award winning designer Rogan Gregory to launch Loomstate for Target, an edgy eco-friendly fashion line for men and women. This limited-edition collection is yet another example of Target’s commitment to providing impressive design at low prices. With a relaxed design sensibility and a devotion to environmentally sensitive materials, all of the cotton used in the collection is 100 percent certified organic. The collection will be available April 19, 2009 for a limited time at Target.com and select Target stores nationwide.“We are excited to launch the Loomstate for Target collection just in time to celebrate Earth Day,” said Trish Adams, senior vice president. “This collection provides great quality and environmentally responsible fashion at an affordable price for women and men everywhere.”Designer Rogan Gregory first partnered with friend Scott Mackinlay Hahn to launch his eponymous collection of men’s and women’s fashion in 2001. In 2004, Gregory and Mackinlay Hahn – both committed environmentalists – created Loomstate, a new casual brand dedicated to creating demand for certified organic cotton using socially and environmentally responsible methods of production.The Loomstate for Target collection was created with a commitment to an environmentally responsible future - all of the cotton used in the Target collection is 100 percent certified organic. Soft-washed fabrics enhance each garment’s lived-in look and add to the care-free, timeless attitude of the collection. Featured prominently throughout the line, the signature Loomstate pelican logo and aqua shade serve as a reminder of the Loomstate desire to always tread lightly on the earth. Iconic tees featuring graphics inspired by nature, authentic washed denim and relaxed favorites including hoodies, board shorts and simple dresses all encompass the signature Loomstate passion for creating easy-to-wear and casual fashion-forward collections for men and women. The Loomstate for Target collection ranges in price from 14.99 to $44.99, in comparison to their high-end line which can cost over $200.FOR WOMEN:Black and white pelican bird prints take flight on a string bikini and a cotton silk tank while a vintage Americana plaid print covers a cotton poplin tunic dress with string tie detailing at the sleeves and neck, providing the go-to option to wear alone or effortlessly over stretch cotton twill skinny pants in white. Easy and comfortable shift dresses are the epitome of casual cool and are available in a black cotton silk blend v-neck option or jersey graphic print t-shirt style. Nicely priced wardrobe staples such as relaxed vintage washed cotton and silk tanks and tees, button-up blouses and airy linen sweaters pair well with flat front poplin shorts in plaid or pelican print. Standout pieces include a silk blend ombre skirt, a cotton poplin jacket and an authentic destroyed denim miniskirt with exposed stitching.FOR MEN:Men express the “Act Natural!” attitude in an assortment of nature-inspired graphic print pieces in shades of black, white, gray and forest green with pops of aqua and yellow. A pocket v-neck tee adds an element of surprise with wing print detailing on the back while a pelican print is scattered along a cotton jersey tee and French terry hoodie. Allover pelican print or solid board shorts work on the beach or around town while patch pocket dark wash denim can be worn time and time again. Plaid print button-downs in forest green and gray alongside Bedford corduroy shorts offer up a simply cool look at an even better price.About TargetMinneapolis-based Target Corporation (NYSE:TGT) serves guests at 1,684 stores in 48 states nationwide and at Target.com.
