J Crew are coming to Ldn!

Last year we had the news that the likes of Victoria's Secret and Helmut Lang were to open their first UK stores in 2012, today it seems that another American retailer is to follow in their footsteps, J Crew.

The brand, which began back in 1983, is the go to store in the US, particularly in Manhattan for high end classic clothes (think Reiss but better).

The brands creative director said today at the new season presentation that they were looking at stores in both Regent Street and Covent Gardens stating 'It's not just gonna be one store, we're not gonna be stingy'. We have a huge British following already, our New York stores get a lot of customers, but what we do is not very well represented in the British market'

The stores are speculated to be opening sometime next year, Until then the brand is available to UK customers online at both net-a-porter and the brands own website JCrew.com.
