Target and Neiman Marcus have collaborated with the CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) to get 24 CDFA designers for a special collection, which will launch on the 1st of December and will be available in Neiman Marcus stores, Target stores, NeimanMarcus.com and Target.com. The collection will consists of 50 pieces, for women, men, home and children. Prices range from $7.99 to $499.99 both Target and Neiman Marcus says they jointly donated $1 million to the CFDA to “affirm their continual support the American design community”.

The 24 designers are Alice + Olivia, Altuzarra, Band of Outsiders, Brian Atwood, Carolina Herrera, Derek Lam, Diane von Furstenberg, Eddie Borgo, Jason Wu, Judith Leiber, Lela Rose, Marchesa, Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la Renta, Philip Crangi, Prabal Gurung, Proenza Schouler, Rag & Bone, Robert Rodriguez, Rodarte, Skaist-Taylor, Thom Browne, Tory Burch, and Tracy Reese.

I am looking forward to this. I hope I will be able to purchase some pieces online as we don’t have Target or Neiman Marcus in the London.

Born in China, Kiki was discovered while in school. She has gone on to appear in Madame Figaro China and Vogue China and has graced the cover of Harper's Bazaar Singapore and Surface Magazine China. She has also appeared in ads for Target, and was the face of Topshop

The thing I love the most about Kiki are her lips, they are amazing, and I also love the fact that you can't really tell what her ethnicity is. I love that in a model. Sometimes she looks Chinese sometimes she looks Korean sometimes she looks mixed race and sometimes she looks Black, its amazing and really beautiful and gives her the ability to appeal to a wide range of people.

The first time I really took notice of Kiki was when I saw the 'Midas Touch' editorial for Harper's Bazaar Singapore. It was set at the beautiful Hotel Crillon and Kiki was elegance personified. It was a golden photo shoot and I was just in awe of how beautiful the model and pictures were. The styling was great and I even loved the winged eyeliner which I usually can't stand. I think this is one of my favourite editorials from Harper's Bazaar. This is another time where I literally wanted everything in the shoot and I love the elegance of her neck and everything just meshes so well in this photo shoot.
