Target-Rich Environment
Gossip Girl Stars Share Spotlight With Anna Sui's New Collection
Heels teetered across the cobblestone in Soho last night as Blake Lively, Penn Badgley, Jessica Szohr, Taylor Momsen, and Michelle Trachtenberg joined Anna Sui for the launch of her Gossip Girl-inspired collection for Target.
Inside the Crosby Street pop-up shop, amid peacocks and Champagne flutes, the clothes were as much the life of the party as the celebs. A lace dress with blue ribbon detail was as demure as Blair Waldorf (sadly, Leighton Meester was a no-show), while a low-cut gray shift, very Serena van der Woodsen, appeared to have teeth.
Sui, whose punk Victorian aesthetic is alive and well in her latest endeavor, tapped Gossip Girl as muse after a trip to China revealed just how far the show's reach extends. "I thought, oh my God, this is a phenomenon," said Sui. But we know she meant OMG.
