Target shutters "The Shops" concept...

Target has announced plans to shut down their “Shops at Target” concept for now, according to the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal. The shops have featured select independent boutique retailers such as San Francisco's The Candy Store, Miami-based The Webster, and New York's mens retailer Odin. Target said that it may revive the concept at a later date, but for now, the company wants to focus on direct partnerships with designers, such as the current Prabal Gurung collection and upcoming FEED collab.
