J.CREW LAUNCHES CREATIVE DIRECTOR BABENZIEN’S FIRST COLLECTION

by John Russel Jones

 

J.Crew’s Fall 2022 Menswear Collection is Men’s Creative Director Brendon Babenzien’s first official launch with the brand and is a modern take on the brand’s timeless and iconic heritage pieces with refreshed styles and fits. The collection includes a variety of styles: suiting, cashmere sweaters, chinos, including a Giant Fit, Madras Barn Jacket, heavyweight sweatshirts, and more, that will be ideal transition pieces into the upcoming colder months. Babenzien and his team are excited to bring elevated styles to brand fans and new customers that will remain in wardrobes for the seasons to come.

J.Crew and Babenzien are taking a significant step towards a new era for the brand, one that taps into J.Crew’s signature lens of creativity and exceptional product quality to build a bright future with a heritage meets modern approach.

The first collection drop is available on JCrew.com starting today, with additional styles continuing to roll out throughout August.

“My first collection with J.Crew focuses on American classics with subtle alterations that aren’t intended to be attention seeking, but that cannot be ignored. J.Crew has been synonymous with American style for nearly 40 years, and we’ve honored that heritage by creating clothing that encourages individual style and confidence, with the hope that each piece will outlive trends that come and go,”  says Babenzien.
