Discount retailer Target is partnering with upscale department store chain Neiman Marcus to offer a limited-edition holiday collection, including apparel, gifts and other items. The retailers said Tuesday that they've assembled 24 leading designers to create the product collection, which is slated to become available Dec. 1 at all 1,763 Target stores and 42 Neiman Marcus stores, as well as on the Target.com and NeimanMarcus.com websites.

The designer-level racks at select Saks Fifth Avenue stores are expanding. Beginning this fall, the options for women looking for sizes 16 and 18 will include more high-fashion styles.
