Are you looking for a leopard coat I would buy another one
I'm not really a fan of the thin printed fabric ones

Here's an article on the craziness at Target: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/around-to...hoppers-from-Rodarte-for-Target-79758137.html

That's funny, at my Target I seemed to be the only one even remotely interested in the collection. I picked up the lace print dress and the striped shirt. The blue dress was really cute, but incredibly itchy, and that was only wearing it for a few minutes in the dressing room. I couldn't imagine wearing it for any significant length of time.

Chicagoans - I just got back from the Target in the south loop (Clark and Roosevelt) and they still have many of the yellow tulle bow dress. Only 2 or 3 left of the nude and black versions. Still TONS of the black halter dress though!!
Only one yellow lace cardi left and no other colors. The lace cardi looks a lot better in person IMO. I like it, but it was too long for me (i'm somewhat petite)
A few sequin leopard dresses left but in larger sizes. It looks a lot nicer in person.
No ribcage dress or accessories in sight!! But I bought those online so.... Fellow online shoppers who were awake at 3 AM - wooo!

OK SO...I got back from my Target a couple hours ago, and I struck Rodarte gold. They had a good majority of the collection except for some tops, the ribcage dress, the kimono wrap dress, and leopard coat. I tried almost everything on except for the leopard dress, the swim suits, and the sheer tops simply because I wasn't interested in those. If they had the tights and the belts, I didn't see them.
They had the slip dress in the black and nude. The only sizes left for the nude dress was an XS and XL, so I had to pass on that. They had the black in M, but that was kinda big on me, so I didn't buy it. I was not keen on the tulle skirts, which they had in the pink, mustard, and black, along with the matching camis. (For sizing, I had the camis in size S, and the skirts in size 7. I'm usually a size 2/4 for dresses.) I wasn't happy with the sheer lace cardis either, so that was a no.
The sequined sleeveless dress fit me well, which was a size M, but I passed on that because I have nowhere to wear it to. XD I LOVE LOVE LOVE the light blue swiss dot dress, which I bought in a size 9. (The 7 would've fit, but they were out of 7s.) I bought the flowered halter dress in a size 7. I love how the skirt is voluminous without too much underskirt, it's so fun and flirty. The lace print dress I bought in a size M since they were out of smalls. My final purchase was the long sleeved horizontal striped shirt in navy/white. I got the medium, and it's kinda big, but that's OK with me since it's a comfort and casual piece. I was going to get the chunky gray cardigan, but I was pushing my budget, so I had to skip it. If I get some Target gift cards, I will definitely go back and buy it, along with some of the tees.
I'll try and post some pics later. =D
OH, and I wanted to add that most, if not all the dresses have an elastic waist. IDK about y'all, but I'm glad for that because it makes getting into those dresses a whole lot easier.

Today I went to my Target, and I was very upset to find that none of the Rodarte stuff was there. But after doing some other shopping, i noticed sales people putting up new things. So of course i ran over and freaked out. I immediately took the blue "cinderalla" dress and the gorgeous flowered halter dress and the leopard print one. The leopard print was SOO TIGHT and rly scratchy and didnt fit haha..so I tried the blue one on and it fit beautifully but my mom was like.."its TOO SHORT"...which they all are..very short. Im 5'10 so they're mid-thigh length. I ended up buying the halter flower one, the print is to die for. As soon as I get more money in my pocket, im going back!!! I just want to hug Kate and Laura because the dresses really made me feel like a princess/ballerina. They really know how to make a girl feel pretty <3

If anyone sees the Nude Tulle Dress in a size XS, could they possibly get it for me? i'm happy to pay them shipping and to cover the dress. Sorry to ask but i really wanted to wear that princess dress for my 21st 
I can't believe so many things sold out so fast.. I bought the leopard dress in a size 3 last night and after sleeping on it thought I'd buy the size 1 as well and return the one that doesn't fit, but every size had sold out. I tried on the size 3 in store, the waist and hips were loose but the bust and shoulders sort of tight.. really wanted to try a size 1 but I couldn't find it at any Targets in my area. Does anyone have a size 1, can you share how it fits you and what size you normally wear in designers? I don't want to feel like another size would fit me better, but I also don't want to hunt for something that will not fit...
I went back to Target today and also picked up the black lace cardigan and the ribcage dress. Pretty much everything was still available (I'm in LA) except the leopard dress in 1-5.

Yeah everything was really picked over when I went & nothing is left online. Im surprised it went so fast because it really doesnt look as exciting in person as I thought it would. The only thing I did think was nice (of the items we got) was the lace cardigan but they only had black & in M & L (to big for me) & I really wanted nude anyways. So as of now it looks like Ill end up with nothing... sad.
I fell asleep last night around 2 with my laptop laying on top of me
I woke up this morning and was like CRAP and by then everything I wanted was already sold out at 10am! Ebayers were out in full force for this one.
I drove around to all the Targets in my city and only three of the five had stock, and nobody received any of the accessories or the nude cardigan. Bah. I did manage to snag another black lace cardigan in a size small for a friend.

It seems as though the Rib Cage dress is no where in sight? It hasn't been seen at any of the Target stores yet I'm pretty sure, and not online either.
Did anyone see it?
I bought 4 things: The black Tulle Slip dress, Grey lop-sided cardi (altho I would have preferred white but all the buttons say Rodarte on them
haha I'm such an idiot), the Striped tee and the Navy Tulle skirt.
Unfortunately all the prices were marked up for Hawaii but oh well...
Really not getting why everyone wants the Mustard lace cardi. I tried it on and it looked horrendous on me to say the least. The kind of item you would buy and look back on in a few years time and say "What the HECK was I thinking?" One positive thing I found was it didn't feel itchy at all.
All the dresses were really cute tho.
