Good way to highlight J.Crew follow the market & do not lead it. In the sense of highstreet we're talking ofcourse. To quote; 'i have a uniform i wear'...fashion is moving away from uniformal or a unitarist perspective to a far more individualistic aesthetic. The days of clones are beginning to evaporate...it's obviously a strong business model but i'd throw j.crew in with all the other rubbish out there. to quote; ‘let us move toward that…’ with regards to referencing daily news gossip essentially.

I was never much of a fan of J.Crew back in the 1990s and didn't quite get their preppy look. It wasn't until a trip to NYC in 2006 that I got a look at J.Crew's collection and was really blown away on how fresh and young it had become. Highly admirable to what a profit J.Crew has become under his direction. It's too bad of a timing that they had to open up their high end store during the recession.
