Description
Jenna Lyons is a creative force. Her vision for how to dress America defined and led the J.Crew brand for nearly two decades, and her influence across design, fashion, interiors, and beauty launched a generation empowered by an accessible aesthetic that mixes high and low, shiny and matte, old and new, and graphic and pretty. Jenna and her Brooklyn brownstone scored the cover of Domino in 2008, launching a Pinterest generation—and inspiring her fans to paint their ceilings in vibrant stripes and layer rugs without fear. It’s still one of Domino’s most iconic stories to date. Since leaving J.Crew three years ago, Jenna has quietly been planning her next move, consulting on interiors projects and building the foundation for two exciting new ventures, which are launching this fall. Listen in, as we dive into materials, color, renovations, and launching a commerce business during COVID, rooted in Instagram.
