This frenzy of shopping mania is a reoccurring theme among shoppers
who abandon all morals for everything from sales to store openings to the most
outrageous of all, Black Friday.
Joshua Thomas, a Target spokesman, said to USA Today, "This was Missoni mayhem," also adding that it was “unprecedented”. Target
had anticipated a huge reaction, but was still unprepared for the mayhem that
ultimately ensued. They had even created a temporary store in Manhattan that
they had planned to keep open for 3 days, it sold out in 6 hours.
The
next designer set to collaborate with Target is Jason Wu, whose Spring 2012 collection will
debut February 5th. Many wonder if this collection will be as popular as
Missoni. The
collection will be 60s inspired and also include both handbags and scarves.
With
Black Friday, quickly approaching at the end of November predictions are
already being made about what the big sellers will be this year.
Department
and low budget stores such as Kohls, Sears, Wal-Mart, and Target will be
participating in Black Friday this year and many suspect smaller boutiques such
as Urban Outfitters will as well.
