A Moment with…Pret-à-Surf®

Wed, 22 May 2013 07:45:00 -0400

New Yorkers Jillian Demling and Karen Mulligan launched Pret-à-Surf (“ready to surf”) back in 2011, and we’ve been fans ever since. this month, we collaborated with our friends on a special mix of rash guards, board shorts and swimsuits inspired by some of their much-loved designs. we hung out with the ladies in Malibu, where these East Coast girls looked right at home…

Best friends Jillian and Karen talk about the inspiration behind Pret-à-Surf and why it’s OK to be a sporty girl and hang with the boys in our latest J.Crew film, “Pretty Swell.”

Five things that remind you of summer. Go.
1. Surfing.
2. The farmer’s market in Hampton Springs.
3. Longer days.
4. Honeysuckle.
5. Bike rides to the beach.

How long have you each been surfing?
Karen: Ten years.
Jillian: Three years.

We also heard you guys are into stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). Tell us more about that.
We both took up SUP three years ago and love it. We’ll go to Gardiners Bay in Hampton Springs or the beach at the end of Wyandanch Road in the Amagansett dunes.

Favorite beach?
Hanalei Bay on the North Shore of Kauai.

Where do you get away on weekends?
Amagansett, Long Island.

What’s the best advice you ever received?
Don’t be afraid of falling.

If your best friend asks where to take up surfing, where do you send her?
Corky Carroll’s Surf School in Nosara, Costa Rica.

You guys have already surfed together in Montauk and Costa Rica. Where are you headed next?
El Salvador.

What’s your favorite piece in the J.Crew and Pret-à-Surf collaboration?

Gatsby Fever

we admit, for months we’d been counting down the days leading up to the release of Baz Luhrmmann’s The Great Gatsby. in honor of the movie’s debut and our soon-to-be-released CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund capsule collections, we’re taking a look back at last fall’s Fashion Fund competition—a finalist challenge sponsored by Tiffany & Co. that fittingly asked the designers for their own take on Gatsby style…

To Market, To Market

Thu, 16 May 2013 16:24:00 -0400

a weddings & parties shoot warrants flowers—lots of them. we tagged along with our set designer
Tracy on a recent trip to New York City’s flower district (the inspiration for this month’s shoot) to learn just why you shouldn’t arrive at the market later than 7am and why Tracy never travels without her pink gardening clippers…

IN FULL BLOOM
“I’ve been coming to Dutch Flower and G. Page for the past 11 years. Dutch Flower has this incredible mix of wildflowers and filler flowers, and Chris, the owner, always places special orders for us,” says Tracy, who has been prop styling our Style Guide shoots for more than 10 years. “Walking through the flower district, it’s so easy to pull together a palette because of the way all the flowers are arranged on racks or in tubs on the floor. Right now, I’ve got my eye on the cherry blossoms and magnolias that are blooming like crazy—they remind me of cotton candy.”

EARLY RISER
The market keeps different hours from most businesses: It opens early, like 5am, and gets all cleaned out before noon. “Sometimes it’ll get in a rare batch of, say, Japanese peonies, but there’s a limited amount, so you want to grab those before they’re gone,” says Tracy. “I never travel anywhere without my pink gardening clippers.”

PETAL PUSHERS
For this particular story, Tracy was inspired by the industrial baker’s racks overflowing with flowers she’d seen on her monthly visits to the flower district. For the shoot, Tracy and her assistant Brian brought in more than 200 bunches for each spread. “We used anemones in each shot, then added peonies, garden roses, hydrangeas and ranunculus to make each rack look really full,” she says. “We even used carnations to fill some of the racks. People don’t know this, but carnations actually hold light beautifully when you shoot them.”

FREEZE FRAME
“I’m still new to Instagram, but it has become a really organic part of my creative process. (I’m constantly taking photos with my iPhone while propping.) At first I’d only Instagram still lifes in my apartment or my paintings, but I’ve since broken out, and now I’ll Instagram whatever catches my eye. Flowers are a common thread in my feed.”

DIFFERENT STROKES
“I’m a painter by trade, so I know color and light well. That, combined with the new interpretation of pairing colors together in our office, makes for an inspiring starting point,” says Tracy, who admits she has no formal knowledge of floral design. “Slowly over time I’ve worked with the team to develop our very own look and feel—it’s much looser now.”

Star Wars All-Stars

Mon, 13 May 2013 17:26:00 -0400

to celebrate our latest crewcuts tee collaboration with Lucasfilm, we spent a Sunday
morning with Star Wars™ fanatics (and fans-to-be) in New York’s Chelsea neighborhood.
here’s a look at some of the action on set…

Have you ever been part of a photo shoot before?
“I don’t do this normally, no.”

I heard you had blue hair yesterday.
“Yes, it was striped, but my mom made me wash it out, though.”

How long have you been watching Star Wars?
“I’ve been watching since I was 5. So, for 3½ years.”

Do you know who says the quote that’s on your T-shirt?
“Darth Vader says it about Luke.”

What other movies have you seen lately?
“Iron Man 2 and Iron Man 3 in 3-D, Rise of the Guardians, Skyfall.”

Luca wears a Stars Wars for crewcuts tee, a french terry zip hoodie in brilliant cobalt,
a Champion track pant and Adidas sneakers.

Walker, what’s your favorite battle scene?
“General Grievous versus Obi-Wan.”

Miller, what about you?
“When Darth Vader kills Palpatine and throws him out of the Death Star.”

Walker, do you have a favorite line from Star Wars?
“‘Use the force, Luke!’”

Miller, we heard you had a Star Wars–themed birthday party recently. How did it go?
“It was epic!”

Miller wears a Stars Wars for crewcuts tee, a crewcuts sun-faded short, crewcuts socks
and Blundstone® boots. Walker wears a Stars Wars for crewcuts tee, a crewcuts sun-faded
short, and Adidas® shoes.

Lowe, you’re wearing braids, do you know who Princess Leia is?
“Princess Leia is cool. I would like my hair like that.”

What do you like to wear these days?
“I just got new floral Doc boots. I’ve had them for a while, but they finally fit. I also really
love these heart sunglases.”

Val, what’s your favorite movie?
“The Pink Panther shows. We have all of them.”

Lowe wears a Star Wars for crewcuts tee, Frankie short in neon floral, Selima Optique®
for crewcuts heart sunglasses and navy Converse sneakers with custom laces. Val wears a
Star Wars for crewcuts tee, a Flora & Henri khaki short and Vans camo half cab shoes.

Mavis and Bonnie
Have you girls seen Star Wars before?
“NO!”

Bonnie, we like your tights.
“I like stars. They’re bright and twinkly.”

Bonnie and Mavis wear Star Wars for crewcuts tees, crewcuts leggings and
Converse® Chuck Taylor sneakers.

Alden
Who is your favorite Star Wars character?
“Boba Fett. He has a jet pack on his back and it’s really cool. And when he flies and the fire
shoots out, it’s awesome!”

Do you have a favorite episode?
“Which one has Boba Fett? Oh, then The Empire Strikes Back.”

We like your Supergas. Do you wear sneakers a lot?
“Yes, I think the designs are cool, and you can wear different-colored shoelaces.”

Alden wears a Star Wars for crewcuts tee, a 45rpm jean and Superga® sneakers.

(interview with his mom, Kiana)
We hear your husband is a big Star Wars fan. Has he made Carter watch?
“We’re not watching—yet. Right now his mornings are filled with Sesame Street
and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. I’m not sure his attention span would last beyond
the opening credits.”

Is this Carter’s usual Sunday look?
“He loves getting dressed up. We go between button-downs and cool graphic tees. We
always put him in a skinny jean or a chino. He’s got a lot of colored pants that I’m teaching
my husband how to style him in.”

These Vans® are pretty cool.
“His favorite things are from crewcuts. But he also gets a ton of wear out of these cool
leather high-tops.”

Carter wears a Star Wars for crewcuts tee, a pull-on lightweight chino in straight fit, and
Vans for crewcuts washed sneakers in lava orange.

Punk’s Cool

Sat, 11 May 2013 10:00:00 -0400

known to some as one of the biggest parties on the calendar, the Metropolitan
Museum of Art’s annual Costume Institute Gala this year included a sneak peek of
the exhibition PUNK: Chaos to Couture (it runs through August 14th so make sure
to take a look yourself if you’re local). prep started early in our office with a custom
J.Crew outfit (and jewels) that Jenna designed herself. the result? spot-on with a
requisite nod to “Rock the Casbah” on her sweatshirt. what’s more punk than that?

Jenna wore a custom sequin skirt (each sequin was sewn on by hand), a J.Crew
custom-printed sweatshirt, a custom Ascot Chang button-down, jewelry by J.Crew,
Sophia Webster shoes and carried a J.Crew clutch.

Bottled Genius

Fri, 10 May 2013 12:36:00 -0400

a few spritzes of Lavett&Chin® Original sea/salt texturizing mist, and
suddenly these ladies in our office have Greek goddess-y, beachy waves—without
a shoreline in sight.

The Backstory
Hairdresser-turned-stylist Brent Lavett is one half of Lavett&Chin (the other half is his
partner, Nan Chin), and he knows great hair when he sees it. He grew up in Southern
California and began surfing at a young age, so that just-out-of-the-waves hair is
something that has a permanent place in his mind. “I’ve always loved the texture you get
from being in the ocean, so I wanted to bottle that and create something that’s actually
beneficial to the hair and scalp.” Brent produced the first batch of sea-salt texturizing
mist back in 1999 and has reintroduced it just for us, using specially sourced ingredients
like rose flower water, Maris sea salt and algae extract. (It should also be said that Brent
is something of a J.Crew veteran, having worked on our Style Guide shoots for the past
14 years.) And if these gorgeous J.Crew ladies’ goddess-y locks above are any
indication, it’s clear that his motto—“If something is important, do it perfectly”—applies
to this wonder texturizing spray as well.

thirst for adventure? check. a simple, understated style? check, check. Farrah
Fawcett–inspired locks? well, maybe not nowadays, but that doesn’t make
these women (the beautiful mothers of some of our very own colleagues)
any less inspiring. here, a tribute in pictures…

A Moment with…Nellystella®

Tue, 07 May 2013 09:21:45 -0400

once we discovered Nellystella, a line of charming children’s wear (imagine the
kind of fanciful creations little girls might design for themselves), we just couldn’t
keep it to ourselves. we caught up with Taipei-based designer Nelly Chen on
her recent visit to New York to meet the newest member of the crewcuts family…

Designer Nelly Chen is wearing our flower lattice necklace and was photographed
by Shawn Brackbill in New York City.

How did you get started designing children’s wear?
“I studied design at Parsons, in Paris and New York. Paris was so inspiring: Our
weekly drawing lessons would take place at the Musée d’Orsay, the Musée Rodin
and other historical landmarks. But New York is the city to be in for fashion. After
college, I was initially interested in designing bridal and women’s wear, but while I
was freelancing in the kids’ division I realized how much I enjoyed it. Things kind
of just happened from there…”

Tell us a bit about the line.
“Quality, comfort and charm are the essence of our brand. For summer, our look is
fun and fresh, with bright colors and embellishments. You’ll see details like
dragonfly and daisy prints, and neon-pink-thread pom-poms.”

So where does the “stella” in “Nellystella” come from?
“ ‘Stella’ is the Latin and Italian word for ‘star,’ and I think of Nellystella as
catching the sparkling eyes of little girls. I do think about the parents too when I
design, but my clothes are really all about the girls and what they want to wear. The
Nellystella girl has her own unique sense of style.”

Now that you live in Taipei, what tops your list of the places you must visit when
you’re back in New York?
PS1: “I really like the space and vibe of this museum, especially in the summertime.
They have a great magazine section—and M. Wells Dinette is on my list of places to
eat on my next trip to New York.”

Tinsel Trading: “This store is a must-go for me. I’m obsessed with the vintage
metal ribbon and vintage flower collections. I go out of control here!

The Highline: “The Chelsea/Meatpacking area is one of my favorites in New York.
I love how this park has become a playground for artists. And I always pop by
Chelsea Market when I’m in the neighborhood…”

Hampton Chutney Co.: “I order grilled portobello mushroom dosa and orange
ginger iced tea.”

In addition to your travels, where do you find inspiration for your line?
“Movies are always inspiring. One of my recent favorites was Anna Karenina—
the costumes and cinematography were so beautiful. My other new obsession is
Pinterest [follow her at Nellystella]. I’m a very visual person, so it
helps me to organize!”

Test Drive: Tanner Goods™ Camera Bag

Sun, 05 May 2013 12:19:00 -0400

we had fashion photographer Hans Neumann try out our new Tanner Goods
camera bag during a scouting trip in upstate New York. we wanted to see how
this heavy-duty canvas bag from our In Good Company partner really looks
(and fares) out in the field…

About Hans:
Hans hails from the south—way south—as in Lima, Peru, where he studied law
before embarking on a career as a photographer. In 2004, he moved to New York
City, assisting photographers such as Cedric Buchet and, later, fellow Peruvian
Mario Testino. He now shoots editorials for W, Elle, Vogue China and Velour
magazines. “My love of photography was borne of a love for telling a narrative.
I wanted to be a writer, but I discovered photography and loved the idea of
capturing a moment on film.”

Where he’s off to next:
“On the calendar this season is a trip across the Pacific to China. Paris is pending,
but it looks like August will be spent in Brazil.”

The verdict:
“I used the camera bag while I was location scouting in upstate New York. I’m tall,
so even with an adjustable strap [this one extends to 46”] the bag was a bit tricky to
wear as a crossbody. But it easily fit a camera body and lens, and I liked how sturdy
it was.”

Studio Tour: Chris Benz in the six years since designer Chris Benz left J.Crew to launch his own...

Wed, 24 Apr 2013 11:35:00 -0400

Studio Tour: Chris Benz

in the six years since designer Chris Benz left J.Crew to launch his own clothing
line, he has quickly made a name for himself in the fashion world, dressing
everyone from girl-about-town Lola Schnabel to Sasha Obama (who wore a
Chris Benz hand-me-down from her sister). this spring, he partnered with London
bag maker The Cambridge Satchel Company® to design his own range of colorful
satchels sold exclusively at J.Crew. we dropped by his Manhattan studio to see
what was going on—and to check out that pink hair for ourselves…

Creativity At Work
“Because we spend so much time here, I wanted to create a studio that felt
like a home and was still reflective of the brand,” says Benz, who worked at J.Crew in women’s design before starting his own line in 2007. “The girls in my
studio will bring in their own artwork, put it up on the wall and it just works.
The space is always changing, though, and I’m sure I’ll change it again next month.”

Off The Wall
“I love everything in the studio that has a little story, from the giant blue klieg
lights once used as props in one of our fashion presentations to personal artwork
made by friends like Lola Schnabel and Danny Roberts,” says Benz.
His most prized possession? It’s a tie between a ship in a bottle from his colleague
Martha and a Chris Benz Ken doll, which was a gift for his 30^thbirthday. (It even has
his trademark pink hair.)

Pattern Play
For his spring collection, Benz says the girl he designs for isn’t afraid of color. “I
was really inspired by old houses,” he says. “Take for example the garish old and
stained wallpaper in a room paired with the girliest bed linens in your
grandmother’s house. I think there is something really beautiful about that contrast.”

Clutch Move
For the Cambridge Satchel collaboration (we’re carrying covetable colors like
black, crimson and lilac rose), Benz says that the mother-daughter-run bag
company with a cult following approached him about a partnership. (It’s the brand’s first
collaboration with a U.S. designer.) “It was great because the timing was perfect,”
recalls Benz. “We ended up showing the bags on the models in our spring/summer 2013
presentation.” The Cambridge Satchel + Chris Benz bags have a slightly narrower
shape than the label’s traditional schoolbag style and are versatile. “I love the idea
that you can take off the long strap and carry it as a clutch to dinner,” says Benz.

Origin of the Species: J.Crew Collection Mercado Popover

Fri, 19 Apr 2013 16:25:05 -0400

a look at the inspiration behind our most special and unique designs…(we like to
think of it as natural style selection.)

The Inspiration
Our women’s stylist, Gayle, spotted this intricate handwoven jacket (it’s
traditionally worn as part of laborers’ uniforms) at the famous Casa de Artes
market in La Antigua, Guatemala, while shooting our June ’10 Style Guide.
“The colors and the sense of detail blew me away,” says Gayle. “It’s so
unstudied but so beautiful.”

The (New) Interpretation
When our design team spotted Gayle wearing her find around the office, they quite
literally demanded the shirt off her back. Using the boxy popover silhouette and
wide-brim collar as inspiration, they created a luxurious new spin on the style in
sumptuous silk shot through with neon-pink thread. As Gayle puts it: “It’s a little
less marketplace, a little more Madison Avenue.”

Smells like…J.Crew

Thu, 11 Apr 2013 16:36:15 -0400

some of our favorite scents come straight from lovely husband-and-wife
duo David and Kavi Moltz in Brooklyn: D.S. & Durga, a brand that
we’ve carried in select stores as part of our In Good Company collection
for the past few years. the next natural step in the relationship?
designing a custom scent exclusive to J.Crew.

MEET DAVID
David Moltz of D.S. & Durga moves fast. Within 10 minutes of entering the small
500-square-foot Gowanus, Brooklyn, studio—stocked to the gills with oils, essences
and alcohols (you walk out of there feeling like you’re floating)—we had already
crossed into the second- or third-date round of questioning. We’d sniffed a fragrance
he had designed after his ’85 Mercedes Diesel (“You gotta smell this! It smells like
my car: saffron-tanned leather, diesel gasoline”), discussed his sweater (“It’s
J.Crew”) and made fools of ourselves on camera for an ongoing video series he
shoots on his Mac (it features him and anyone who visits the studio). Plus, we
listened to his massive collection of classical vinyl. In short, David is fun and
fanatical about scents—the ideal choice for our men’s designer, Frank, to partner
with on an exclusive fragrance.

HOW IT WENT DOWN…
David
“Frank came to me with the idea about this day he had in Big Sur. He talked about
waking up early in the morning and taking a walk, smelling all the wild herbs, sage,
eucalyptus…and those scents mingling with the ocean and the kelp.”

Frank
“The California coast is kind of sacred to me, and it has been an inspiration for us in
several men’s collections here at J.Crew. It’s undisturbed, understated… It’s raw in
a way, and you kind of have to search for the beauty in it.”

David
“We had this idea about the guys who settled that area—Big Sur, Point Lobos, Point
Reyes. They were rangers…real rugged dudes…but strangely refined. And when
they shaved in the mornings, they’d go out to gather local ingredients and plants to
add to alcohol and use as a shaving tonic. That’s what we envisioned this
smelling like.”

Frank
“The air is rich out there—and it stays with you. I can smell it now [laughs].”

David
“I researched this area so much that I actually wanted to continue altering the final
product, keep working. But Frank loved it so much he said, ‘No, this is it.”

Our collaboration with D.S. & Durga, Homesteader’s Cologne Water, is available in
stores and online now.

A Moment with…Nick Brown of Soludos®

Wed, 10 Apr 2013 10:08:00 -0400

we checked in with one of the biggest heat-seeking ambassadors we know,
Nick Brown of Soludos, as he gets ready to head west for Coachella.
we caught up with him to see what he’s packing in his bag (chambray shirts and
white denim), how he’s keeping his footwear game in check (denim stripe
espadrilles) and what’s on his playlist for the weekend…

How did the idea for Soludos come about?
I grew up wearing espadrilles as a kid, spending summers along the Spanish coast.
The simple rope-soled traditional espadrille was hard to find when I moved to New
York. I knew it would be perfect for the city lifestyle, so I looked to bring a bit of
the Mediterranean to New York while adding interesting prints to a classic shape.

Now that you’ve settled in New York, what’s one of your favorite spots?
Tacombi at Fonda Nolita in Soho is right around the corner from me and it is like
walking into a summer wonderland escape even on the most frigid winter days. You
can get fresh agua de piña and fish tacos served out of a vintage VW with lights
strung from the ceiling…It feels like an authentic pop-up beach barbecue from a
town on the Mexican coast.

You’re headed out to Coachella next week, how long have you been going?
This will be my fourth year, but each year has a different lineup and vibe, so it
continues to surprise everyone, including me. It’s become a nice annual ritual to
welcome the warm weather and the start of spring.

What act are you most looking forward to seeing?
Phoenix on the main stage will have the crowd dancing in the desert to their new
album. (Last time they played Madison Square Garden, Daft Punk
made a cameo, so anything is possible.)

NICK’S COACHELLA PLAYLIST:
—
“Elephant” by Tame Impala
—
“Sun” by Two Door Cinema Club
—
“Entertainment” by Phoenix
—
“Keep You” by Wild Belle
—
“Girls and Boys” by Blur
—
“Genesis” by Grimes
