Gap design editions tomorrow!
Gap's designer collaborations--with 3.1 Phillip Lim, ThreeAsFour, Band of Outsiders, Michael Bastian, and Philip Crangi--hit stores and Gap.com tomorrow. I unfortunately have a meeting first thing tomorrow morning, but I will hit the Times Square Gap store on my lunch hour and report back ASAP! In the meantime, Racked reports that Nylon has a mini-preview, featuring the designs modeled by "real women" (a.k.a. Nylon staffers). I call dibs on the pintucked Michael Bastian shirt...

UPDATE: I went to the Gap on my lunch hour, and judging by how ransacked the store was, I probably should've gone earlier. Oh well. Smaller sizes were gone in almost everything but the Michael Bastian shirt, strangely enough. Of course, that was my favorite one (as I had predicted), and since they were out of mediums, I will have to order online. I didn't even see the Band of Outsiders shirt or the Philip Crangi jewelry. The ThreeAsFour stuff was pretty good and fit the best of everything (in other words, it was not huge and shapeless). And while I love me some 3.1 Phillip Lim, his shirts were my least favorite--they just seemed a bit boring to me. Also, it should be noted that everything is see-through. Um, and $78 (the AsFour dress and Band of Outsiders top are $88). I'm probably going to order the Michael Bastian shirt--Gap.com still has everything in stock, except the AsFour camisole, for some reason--but only because I have a coupon. Has anyone else checked it out?

I am stuck between the 3/4 length sleeve Philip Lim and the long Band of Outsiders shirt. And I have a coupon for Gap online. I should probably just go and try them on and then order tomorrow.

I checked it out on my way home and the Philip Lim shirt I liked sort of looked like a chef jacket. So I'm probably going to order the Band of Outsiders shirt however I wish I could have tried it on for size but the Astor Place store was pretty ransacked by 5pm.
