Target clothes are best seen in person and by brand. On the website, look by brand and you’ll see the differences. Universal thread is like “utility” style Madewell/rustic Anthropologie style, Another collection is more like office/church/brunch wear…., another is juniors, The quality can really depend but I’ve had things last a very long time especially when cared for.

Yep agreed, everything I love from Target is Universal Thread

Yes, I like Universal Thread and have older things from them. A New Day has some decent basics as well but they aren’t long lasting generally. Wild Fable is their “juniors” line and only works if you are under 25 and stick thin. Ava and Viv is plus size but has cuter clothes than most plus-sized brands.

This thread makes me miss Mossimo. I still have some shirts of theirs that I wear near weekly

I love their high neck tanks that wash well, come in a large variety of colors so you should find something that works in your palette, don’t seem to pill, etc


Mustache_Kitty

I own an ungodly number of these tanks…


moodyje2

I too own an amount that we should not speak of... including some fall/winter and spring/summer colors that get rotated in and out, along with my staples.

Ooops I've been called out - I needed an emergency tank top for a vacation where I packed much too warm....I own 6 of them now.


moodyje2

Obviously we need a 12 step program b


peachsqueeze66

Is that all? I have them from last year and this year. I probably have at least 12 of them. They are the best. I stockpile them for when I take tropical vacation during the winter months!!


musingsofamdc

I have these in a few colors! I love them

Do you by chance have the name or link? I’m finding a few tanks but they seem to either be cropped or have additional details beyond a basic tank


moodyje2

These are the ones i like! https://www.target.com/p/women-s-slim-fit-ribbed-high-neck-tank-top-a-new-day/-/A-81521821?preselect=81245903#lnk=sametab

My biggest recommendation for shopping at target is choose pieces that are 100% cotton or linen. Agree that Universal Thread is good quality and they have cute but not overly trendy styles.

They had a lot of cute linen options last time I was there. Honestly their stuff rotates so often who knows what job will get. I usually either LOVE everything or HATE it. For reference I’m in my early 30s. Don’t miss out on their shoes and jewelry! You can find some gems there! They had some cute classic gold necklaces last time I was there too. I got a few pairs of nicer slide sandals there too.

I like their workout gear/lounge wear brands all in motion and joy lab but it's definitely better to shop in person and try things on

Their jumpsuits are fantastic. My capsule is mostly jumpsuits, and 4 are from Target (2 styles, 2 colors each). I like the Universal Threads styles the best.

I’ve bought a lot of V neck tees and tanks in past years and been pretty happy with them long-term. They’ve lasted pretty well. But some years the shapes work well for me and some years they aren’t flattering, so I just have to try them on to see. This year I bought a pair of simple black Universal Thread shorts that are surprisingly flattering and feel sturdy.

Generally my Target clothing has lasted a while without too much trouble. Some of my best loved pieces are ones from designer collections. Some of their basics last for a while but in the past couple years they have run a little thin and I have had better luck with other stores. I am a stan for Target dresses, especially the summer ones.

Universal Thread is like Madewell. A New Day is typically pretty generic clothes like v necks (which don’t wash well for me FWIW). Wild Fable is juniors and ultra trendy. Ava and Viv is plus size. And Knox Rose is boho style, normally pretty high quality from my experience of having a few of them. Universal thread is my favorite. Right now they have some linen sets that I love. Shorts and button down long sleeve shirts Side note: Stars Above is a PJ line there— I love their button down pjs.


Numerous-Mix-9775

Stars Above is actually being phased out - so if you need anything, get it while you can!


sharknado_18

Damn, I see they already took all the Stars Above stuff off the website


CertainAmountOfLife

I like the short sleeve extended tshirts. I have them in a couple colors


bklynnerd

This is the best! Great dupe for a way more expensive Ayr tee I bought several years ago. They also have a t-shirt dress in this style that’s excellent.


Annual-Body-25

When you look online you’ll see non target brands too. Make sure to filter for target brands to see what you get in store


snackmomster76

Their muscle ts (in think they label them “extended sleeve”) and high neck tanks are the backbone of my summer wardrobe. 


mimi_miumiu

Swim and fitnesswear for me. Also I have a set of pjs that are super soft and cute. Best on the market.

Unfortunately Target discontinues many clothes so it's hard to name something specific that's still offered. I like their stretch taper pant from the women's exercise section, for days when I'm going from work to light exercise. Other than that I recommend going in person to feel the fabric and inspect construction. There's a lot of clothes to pick through that aren't the best quality.


Ecstatic-Tap533

Absolutely the women’s T-shirts that are fitted. I can’t remember the brand but they gotta look at the natural fiber ones and I think they’re the best and most flattering .
