He Revived J. Crew: Frank Muytjens
After working for Ralph Lauren at the RRL and Blue label Frank Muytjens seems to honed in on an American look. He is also responsible for the trendiest set of J. Crew clothes we have seen yet. From their new Ludlow suits in Loro Piana wool to their designer collaborations with Barbour, Selima and more, Frank is on fire. About his design process he says:
“It’s a combination of thinking about who our guy is, what music he listens to, what his house looks like. We build a story. I find inspiration in everything from street fashion to old films. I tend to immerse myself with materials like tears from books and magazines, fabric swatches, vintage pieces, movies, old album covers and found objects. The line really grows from there.”
