Together with America’s momentous historical transformation through President elect Barack Obama, Michelle Obama’s wardrobe ensemble brings J.Crew into a new defining light. But with “all politics aside,  J.Crew outfits, do indeed, receive our vote.”

In 1947, Mitchell Cinader and Saul Charles founded Popular Merchandise, Inc. (Popular Club Plan) to sell affordable women’s clothing through home demonstrations. With the rise of catalog retailers such as Lands’ End, Talbots and L.L. Bean, the company focused on leisurewear for medium high echelon consumers yet priced in the middle. The preppy spirit was born and the operation dubbed as “J.Crew” saw through the first J.Crew mail in catalog in 1983. The success of the initial campaign launched a second catalog program in 1985 called “Clifford & Wills”. In 1989, the company totally changed its name to J.Crew Group, Inc. and set its first brick and mortar retail store at the South Street Seaport in New York City. The addition of Millard Drexler as CEO and Chairman in 2003 brought a fresh inspiration and creativity to the company. Since then, J.Crew has expanded to 206 retail stores, 69 outlets and a solid online presence in Canada and Japan.
