Launch of Missoni For Target Crashes Website


Missoni madness crashed Target's website Tuesday as the trendy retail chain released its much anticipated Missoni for Target line. The collection includes apparel and household goods from the Italian fashion house known for its bold colors and geometric designs.
Shoppers crashed the company's website this morning. Target issued this statement:
"Due to an overwhelming amount of traffic to Target.com as a result of the Missoni launch this morning, guests are unable to access the site. Providing a positive shopping experience to our guests is important to us and we are working to get the site back up as soon as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience."
Target got its website back up and running for a short time before it jammed up again. The current message reads:
"We are suddenly extremely popular. You may not be able to access our site momentarily due to unusually high traffic. Please stay here and we'll try to get you in as soon as we can!Please know that there is no need to refresh your browser. Your request will automatically retry in 30 seconds."

 
Thank you and our apologies for the inconvenience.
