Easily our favorite collaboration of the year: Rodarte meets the bulls-eye. (Zac Posen's much buzzed about and anticipated capsule collection for the big box budget store might argue but is not due until mid-Spring of next year.) Regardless, we've waited with bated breath for sneak peeks at the netting- and tulle-loaded collection, and now that the countdown until their Target debut (set for Dec. 20) is less a month, our obsession has reach an all-time high.

Bustiers and geometric tropical prints came from Proenza Schouler, bunny prints and baby-dolls from Erin Fetherston, and stained glass tie-dyes and pleated skirts from Thakoon--what prominent signature design features would Rodarte choose? So when we were given a preview of some of the looks, our minds began to race with what details evoked the true design spirit of Rodarte. Knitted netted legwear, sheer lace cardigans and tulle party dresses top our coveted list, with leopard print and peeks of sequins running closely behind. 

Find limited-edition Rodarte collection, priced $9.99-$79.99 from Dec. 20 through Jan. 31 at Target stores throughout the state and online.
