In 1951, crusty, self-made millionaire Albert Coombs Barnes (played by Ed Asner at his grumpiest) wanders through his foundation’s private galleries in rich, fox-hunty Merion, Pa. He gazes at some of his 180 Renoirs, 69 Cezannes and 44 early Picassos.

For the Brooklyn-born Mizrahi, creating inexpensive women’s clothing for Target is a way to test his theory that one can have an impact on fashion even without making a $20,000 dress that gets worn once at the Emmys. He hopes to accomplish it on the backs of the humble millions who just want something nice to wear to work for under $50. For the Minneapolis-based Target, with 1,200 stores around the country and annual sales of about $37 billion, the Mizrahi deal helped solidify its position as the alternative to Wal-Mart, a place for people who believe that quotidian life holds satisfactions beyond getting the lowest price on paper towels....
