Well, the Josh Goot for Target Australia collection was released today - falling under the radar for a much more low-key and civilised opening than the previous Stella McCartney collection.
I headed over to Target at lunchtime to find the racks partly devoid of smaller sizes, but for the most part still quite full. I found that the colours and fabrics were stunning, the pieces well-made and the prices very reasonable. And yet, I left empty-handed.
The deterring factor was the sizing - I tried on an extra small trench coat and it was still too big...? It was much the same story for all the pieces I tried on. While having the Stella collection cut a lot larger than the actual sizing worked well due to the over-sized style of the clothing, Josh Goot's figure hugging fabrics require the sizing to be true to its word.
Did anyone else get around to checking it out? Did you buy anything? What are your thoughts on the collection?

I had a quick look the day it arrived in Bris City store... I was the only one looking!
I found the metallics to be quite hideous to be honest. The way they were merchandised on the racks didn't appeal either. The only piece I was interested in was the trench coat, in jersey, but they only had size 12 and up, on the rack. The silver metallic spandex dress that is featured on all the promo material looks fantastic on the model, but when I saw it in store in size 14 / 16... I'm sorry to sound nasty but I hope those girls with booty also have common sense...
