Ugh. I hated what Jenna Lyons did to J. Crew. Can't believe she has fans.

Another fan of Jenna Lyons here! I loved her!

Third poster who misses Jenna Lyons, whatever you think of her reign there. The fabrics were more interesting and the styles were quirkier. Now it’s just cheap design choices, like endless peasant blouses so they don’t have to fit sleeves or put buttons anywhere.

Totally agree with the last two posts. The quality has suffered and the Jenna Lyons days were great - lots of classics, but lots of fun stuff, too.

Unpopular opinion: I miss the Jenna Lyons days of J Crew. The designs now are ugly and super basic.

I think the quality has gone way downhill. I bought a couple sweaters over winter and they already look worn out. Meanwhile, sweaters I bought there over a decade ago still look good...
