Last night, Target + Neiman Marcus opened their holiday pop-up shop a night early to a group of designers and stylish celebrities, including Kate Bosworth and Zoe Saldana, as well as sticky-fingered editors trying to beat the imposed five-gift limit. It was the first time the collection of co-branded, collaboratively designed diffusion gifts was available to the (relative) public. But the one thing everyone truly wanted was time with Allison Williams, coolly standing in the corner and seemingly uninterested in getting her shopping done early. When the Cut caught her attention, she was kind enough to explain that her boss Lena Dunham does indeed have a very specific Twitter face: “She sort of furrows her brow just slightly and looks down at her phone, and she’ll pause.” To learn more, plus see what all the fashion people wore for this season’s first holiday party, click through our red-carpet slideshow.

Karlie KlossSo, you said you keep seeing your Target commercial? My whole family has. At first it was really exciting when we first saw it, and now they’re like, “Oh, Karlie. There’s you on TV again.” It’s already become kind of normal. But it’s very surreal to see myself on TV.

Allison WilliamsSo, the Girls boxed set – we noticed it comes with a booklet full of Lena Dunham’s tweets. Does she tweet on-set? She’s very professional, but you can see it — she has a face she makes when something is welling up inside of her, and you just usually know it’s gonna result in either an on-set vocal quip or a tweet. She sort of furrows her brow just slightly and looks down at her phone, and she’ll pause, and she’ll either look up and say something or she’ll just start typing.

We did a dress and we did a top, and they are both pretty astoundingly amazing. I tried on the dress when it first came in, and I was like, "Oh my god. We sold ours for $1,300 and this one is $99.99?" I mean, it’s shocking how fabulous it is.

Tracy ReeseHas your business changed since Michelle wore the pink dress? You know, there was such a crazy clamor for that dress. We sold — pre-sold — like, hundreds and hundreds.
