Most dresses and all the bathing suits were online only. My sister texted me, she got nothing. She said there were people just grabbing off the racks and running around like crazies. My BIL went with her and he was totally appalled at people's behavior over clothing!
Really, how successful do these people think they will be on eBay? If you are going to spend 3x the Target price, you might as well by real Lilly. The only thing that might have eBay success is the plus size items.
Yup exactly. Might as well buy the actual ones. I am buying nothing Lilly from eBay to promote those crazy ones trying to make a few dollars. :rolleyes:
I have to be honest - the continual stream of outrage on FB has been my morning entertainment. That said, I have sympathy for the disappointed. We've all been there.
Their website is so bad on a normal day; I'm afraid it's going to crash and burn on Sunday. I feel like a few people are going to buy it all and they we'll be seeing it listed on ebay. I would love it if they limited the number of purchases of the same items.
There's a limit of 5 units per piece for online but no limit in store. I'm also hoping that the eBay won't be ridiculous because if the prices get too high then they compete with regular Lilly. It should help to regulate the prices.
My store announced a limit of 3 per item, but it was all still gone within 5 minutes.
Omg @natariru! That sucks and that pic is crazy! Ugh I too wanted a shift dress. Specially the yellow one but that was online only and it was sold out thru the leaked links on mobile site. It was never available on the main website.
The two things I wanted are sold out online, and plus sizes are only available online, which pisses me off to begin with. Depending on how much they go for on eBay, I may try for the maxi dress I really wanted since Lily doesn't normally come in plus sizes.
We got there at 7:15 & there was already a line. The first person was there at 5:30. When we got in everything had been grabbed up. W found the pineapple shoes & I grabbed the gold clutch & a necklace. She then went back to the dressing room & waited for people to come out. We managed to get a few more things. People overall were calm & polite. One teenage girl was bitchy & said something about how there was no way W could fit into a kids xl sheath dress. Well it fits! One guy was there trying to get the 2 things his wife wanted. She had a baby 2 weeks ago.
eBay & poshmark are full of overpriced stuff now. You can get a real Lily dress cheaper than what they are asking for the target collaboration.
So jealous you got the gold clutch and pineapple sandals. Those were the two things I wanted. Are they cute in person. How's the quality?!

I'm jealous too! I wanted that gold fish clutch so bad! That was my favorite thing in the whole damn collection.
aak0517 - the clutch is cuter than I thought it would be but it's going to turn no doubt. The shoes are good but I think my Sam & Libby sandals from target are better quality & more comfortable
I was worried about those sandals not being comfortable. The colors of everything are so bright and perfect for our upcoming vacation. But I ain't going to get in the craziness. I'll stop by later and see if anything is left. Some of the home stuff was cute like the pineapple serving bowl and white with gold stitching table cloth.
Ugh, so I'm working today. 7a-7p. Too early to go before work since local stores open at 8. I checked store availability about 8a, everything I wanted was available. Checked again at 10:30a, everthing is gone. Typically, my local stores hold onto the collaboration pieces pretty well. I'm going after work just to see, but I'm not holding out hope.
I'm so disappointed. My store had very little and most was gone. I got two outfits for dd. A beach blanket. The bobby pins.
I tried this on but hated it.
I tried that on too and also hated it.
I got to my store at 7:50 and was probably at least 100 people back in line. I got one pair of the palazzo pants but not the dress I went for. I managed to order most of what I wanted online so I hope my orders get filled. Still wanted the See ya Later shift dress and the Sea urchin maxi which I did not manage to score. . I had both in my cart but they sold out before I could check out. I will keep stalking the site and local stores for them as regular Lilly doesn't come in my size. My store only had 2 racks of clothes and everything was gobbled up in around 2 minutes. Definitely heard people complaining about how little stock they had.

Our local store opened at 8 but when I looked online it said 11 so by the time I figured it out it was too late so I got there at 9. The place was dead. The store clerk said there were about 10 people lined up and they pretty much bought everything. At my store there was a lot of stuff left in the beauty section like the make up bags and headbands, and lots of little girl clothing. But there were only 2 racks of women's clothing and it all went.
I'm really happy with the beach blanket I found and the two outfits for my daughter. But disappointed that I wasn't able to get myself something.

I went to two Targets and I really wanted to see the bags and scarves--none left. The clothes were super picked over and only a few xxls left. I got DD a dress -- at least she can look cute. Still crossing my fingers my online order goes through for the plus size shirt I wanted.
I also got a nail file. Why did I buy and stupid nail file? I'm going to sell it on eBay for $80. #gotcaughtupinthehype

Lol... I bought two files for my BFF and me as a joke. I went around 11 for other stuff and they were taking down the displays already. I did see a scarf, four pack of cups, head band and nail polish. The cashier said there were bout 90 people in line when they opened and that they were crazy. They did say that you couldn't buy two of the same thing.
A GF had a dress ripped out of her hands :/ what is wrong with people?
I decided to go for opening at the last minute. With four minutes to open, there were only 20 people in line. by the time I got in, there were just a few things left and no scarves or bags.
I managed to get myself the two shorts I wanted and Elle a few things. Here's one of the rompers I picked up for her.

bethaboo she is soooooo cute. OMG I love. I got that same jumper for my 3 year old too. Maybe not the best choice for potty training. But oh well. I got that and the same blue dress that Watermelon posted of her daughter.

I went to Target around 1:30 and saw people buying what appeared to be LP sofa cushions. I also saw one sad little display with some nail polish and a few blankets, and one guy pleading with his wife: "They're just plain blankets!"
I walked into a target to pick up a few random things I needed (around 330) and went over to shoes and saw a pair of the gold pineapple sandals tangled in a pile of other crap. People must not have realized they were left behind. They are a 1/2 size too big but fit my gf so I'll be gifting them to her as part of her bday gift since she talked about wanting them. Can't believe I found them so late in the day.
Also I saw pics of the pink tote with the little scarf tied to it, so cute and so bummed I missed it.
I checked the hashtag on IG and some people are selling the stuff they swept up. One woman was selling the flip flops (not the gold pineapple medallion ones, just regular ones) for $60. Lol um, hell no.
