Target plans four pop-up stores - or “bullseye bodegas,” as the retailer is calling them - for Manhattan. The shops will preview clothes from 22 designers, and will be open Sept. 12 - 15.
Each bodega will feature an edited selection of the “trendiest and most affordable products from its designer partners” across home, fashion, accessories and beauty, according to the company. The shops, designed to look like a NY corner store, will offer New Yorkers the opportunity to shop upcoming limited-time collections before they hit Target stores. Products will have an average price tag of $25.
The shops will appear in Midtown, Union Square, SoHo and the East Village, and will be open from 10am to 10pm.
Target’s plan is to piggyback on New York’s Fashion Week, which runs Sept. 5-12.
