In the past couple of years, J.Crew went from an average retailer known for their preppy style to one of the most sought-after labels, thanks to Jenna Lyons who took over as Creative Director of J.Crew in 2008. For their New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2014 presentation, J.Crew got inspired by beach holidays, in fact it was a mash-up of a Californian coast and European chic summer vacation. This resulted in signature high-low J.Crew style, a collection that's polished, casual and most importantly affordable.
Trends spotted at J.Crew Spring/Summer 2014 collection:
1. Floral Prints
2. Neoprene
3. Nautical
4. Shorts
5. White
6. Flared Skirts
Best thing at J.Crew Spring/Summer 2014 collection?
The shoes! They were from the Sophia Webster for J.Crew collection that debuted at the J.Crew Spring/Summer 2014 presentation. Sophia Webster is one of my favorite shoe designers and it was great to see her branching out in such an alliance.
Worst thing at it?
I don't think there's a bad thing about a well curated accessible collection, with loads of separate pieces that you can mix and match for your own personal style.
