“The future of fashion is really about nurturing the students, and not that long ago, I was a student.”- Jason Wu

One of the most exciting collaborations in 2012 has to be Jason Wu for Target. In February, the designer debuts his exquisitely designed and well-edited 53 piece collection. Here is a glimpse at the few photos that have been circulating online since the news broke only a few days ago.

Although the entire line is much smaller than the Missoni for Target collection  that shut down Target’s website last winter with the debut of nearly 400 pieces,  Jason Wu for Target is never the less just as awe-inspiring. Expect a focus on classic navy stripes and girly girl florals, perfect for sophisticated fashion-lovers on a budget.

Jason Wu for Target, $19 to $60, launches in stores February 5.
