Behind the Scenes: J Brand Ready-to-Wear

J Brand is set to debut its very own high-end Ready-to-Wear line for Spring 2012! I have been lucky enough to be a part of an amazing team and work with one of the most talented designers, Donald Oliver. The 140-piece collection will include office-to-evening separates priced from $200 to $1,500 and will hang alongside the likes of Isabel Marant and Rag & Bone. The palate plays safe with lilac, black and grey in luxe fabrics such as silk chiffon and lambskin.
The newly appointed design director Donald Oliver (who has former lives at Vera Wang and Calvin Klein) told Fashionologie:

“We paid a lot of attention to details, making the garment feel special to the wearer,” Oliver said, adding of the intended customer: “We wanted her to be easygoing, uncomplicated, subtly sophisticated. We wanted her to feel relevant, not trendy, not like she’s trying too hard, which is why I think the garments have an ease about them.”

I am so proud of my team and extremely grateful for everyone I work with!
