With the focus on the fashion show, there was very little decoration added to the interior of Cipriani’s ornate main hall. In fact, the only distraction from Cipriani’s towering marble columns was two Target banners, hanging on opposite sides of the hall. With very little in the way of decor, the eyes of the guests were immediately drawn to runway, anticipating the show to come. At either side of the runway sat well-stocked bars, although few guests made use of these as crowds of waiters were on hand with trays of Bellinis.

Sitting directly in the center of the hall, the catwalk and its seating stole most of the space. Simple, long white drapes suspended from the 65-foot ceiling created a dramatic look above and around the rear end of the runway, echoing Mizrahi's clean and dramatic designs and Target's plain but effective logo. After the show, the drapes covering the backstage area of the catwalk were hoisted up to give guests more room to mingle over drinks. On a platform embellished with the Target logo was a DJ lit by red lighting and enveloped in mist from fog machines.
