Michelle Obama Wears J.Crew
One person who is loving J.Crew is the first lady. Michelle Obama wears J.Crew on a semi-regular basis. I’m guessing she has tailored many items, since J.Crew skirts tend to fall straight at the knees instead of coming in slightly like a flattering skirt should. She has been photographed looking absolutely fabulous while wearing many of J.Crew’s pencil skirts, cardigans and tees this year — which may be why this brand is doing so well.
J.Crew Group Inc. announced this month that its profit more than doubled in the third quarter as sales rose by a double-digit percentage. The results sent its stock surging in after-hours trading after the retailer beat Wall Street consensus estimates for profit and revenue. The Associated Press said its gross margin grew to 48.4 percent of revenue from 41.6 percent a year ago. CEO Millard Drexler gives credit to doing simple things well. “It’s about product, it’s about quality, it’s about design, it’s about creativity.” I suppose, but I think it has more to do with Michelle Obama and the brand’s relatively recent lean towards on-trend styles.
