My guest on the show today is Maggie Bullock, author of Kingdom of Prep, the Inside Story of The Rise and (Near) Fall of J Crew. Maggie's also the co-author of the Substack newsletter The Spread, which offers an insider's look and cultural commentary on the world of women's magazines.Maggie and I talk primarily about the subject of her book, J Crew, which holds a special place in my heart, brain and psyche. We talk about our own respective experiences of preppy culture, particularly in high school, and about how fashion relates to issues of politics, race, culture, weight, history, class, psychology, and more. We talk about the key figures in the creation of the two J Crew golden ages, first the founding visionaries, Arthur Cinader and his daughter Emily Cinader, and then the saviors of the brand after it was wrecked by private equity, retail wiz Mickey Drexler and chief designer Jenna Lyons.It's a really interesting conversation, I think, even if you're not interested in clothes in the way that Maggie and I are.The Rise, Fall, and Resurgence of J. Crew: An Insider's LookIn this episode of Eminent Americans, host Dan Oppenheimer interviews Maggie Bullock, author of 'Kingdom of Prep: The Inside Story of The Rise and Fall of J. Crew.' They explore the fascinating history of J. Crew, from its founding by Arthur and Emily Senatore, its evolution and perfectionism, to its tumultuous relationship with private equity and eventual decline. The discussion also delves into the cultural impact of the brand, its transformation under Mickey Drexler and Jenna Lyons, and the intersection of fashion with issues such as race, class, and gender. The episode is dedicated to Dan's late friend, Aaron Hess, and his iconic J. Crew role-neck sweater.00:39 Diving into J Crew: A Brand Close to Our Hearts00:50 Exploring Preppy Culture and Fashion's Broader Impact01:26 Dedication to a Friend01:55 Welcoming Maggie Bullock02:36 The Kingdom of Prep: J Crew's Story03:33 The Business and Cultural Evolution of J Crew06:31 Private Equity and Its Impact on Fashion08:52 The Origins and Growth of J Crew18:52 Personal Reflections on Preppy Culture23:59 The Iconic Role Neck Sweater30:44 Landing Supermodel Linda Evangelista34:06 The Fashion Moment That Elevated J Crew34:36 The Influence of Male Models36:05 J Crew's Cultural Impact in Schools39:45 The Perfectionism of J Crew's Founders43:52 Mickey Drexler's Turnaround Strategy57:03 Jenna Lyons' Creative Vision01:02:50 The Challenges of High Fashion01:06:17 The Resilience of Preppy Style01:08:53 Conclusion and Future Prospects Get full access to Eminent Americans at danieloppenheimer.substack.com/subscribe

What a doozy of a movie to get back to our regularly scheduled programming here on the pod. For this episode we are talking the plot hole ridden and badly acted film from 2000, The In Crowd.

We do a dream casting as we would have done it, the literal madness when it comes to this story, and the few moments of levity we were able to find. Off-topic rants: our other fav late 90s teen thrillers, why Katie Holmes and Kirsten Dunst would have saved this

Meet Katherine Lewin.She is one of my oldest friends dating all the way back nearly 30 years ago, when we first met in preschool. She's always been a kindred spirit, particularly when it comes to food. In high school, she had an encyclopedic knowledge of every worthwhile restaurant in our hometown - a characteristic which I thought to be extremely cool.After working in fashion and as the editor for a major food journalism outlet, Katherine opened BIG NIGHT - a New York-based brick and mortar selling everything you need for an epic dinner party - food, drink, kitchenware, glassware, etc. Everything is brilliantly curated from talented makers from across the world.While there are many choices out there to procure dinner party materials, it's Katherine's personal touch that sets Big Night apart.Katherine is the domestic goddess you want curating your home, your kitchen, your dinner party. She is also one of the most tasteful people I know. The whole store - store is the wrong noun here, the whole “experience” that is Big Night is a triumphant reflection of her creativity is a personal inspiration to witness. If you live in or are visiting New York City, make a point to check out either of her two locations in Greenpoint or the West Village.Big NightOrder the Big Night BookEXAU Olive OilThe DeligramCheck out our website!Follow the show on InstagramEmail usFollow Jordan on InstagramShout out to Shawn Meyers for the music, Korey Pereira for help with the mix, and Jason Cryer for the art!

Welcome to Made in the Hamptons , I'm your host Jill Laurence and this week I have a wonderful conversation with the man regarded as the merchant prince, former gap and JCrew CEO, Mickey Drexler.Mickey opens up about his early days in the retail industry at big names such as Bloomingdales and Ann Taylor, where he would sharpen his skills to move onto a pivotal role at the Gap. During his tenure he created the mega brand Old Navy, which would soar to unimaginable popularity, turning the Gap brand from a failing jean shop to an $18billion retail giant.Things would take drastic turn though as Mickey would be ousted from the company and you'll never believe who delivered the startling news.He would soon rebound at JCrew, where he also created the Madewell brand, turning the struggling preppy retailer into a design darling and favorite among the budding influencer industry. Today, he is a partner at Alex Mill, a brand the embodies the timeless and attainable design that Mickey is long known for.We also chatted about Mickey's impressive real estate collection namely his love for renovating historical homes in the Hamptons, one of which was Montauk's Eothen, the former long time estate of Andy Warhol, which has entertained such famous names as Jackie Onassis, The Rolling Stones, John Lennon, Halston and many more.I found it to be a wonderful conversation about resiliency, determination and hard work and I think you will really enjoy it as well. So without further ado, my conversation with Mickey Drexler.

When the first J. Crew catalog came out in 1983, it said the brand was based on 100 years of craftsmanship, which was just a lie. The brand had just started and since then, has reached dizzying highs and terrifying lows. Courtesy of Brendon Babenzien, the brand is back after a fallow period and a bankruptcy in 2020. Albert leads the boys through the brand's long history and our own thoughts and feelings around the "legendary" brand that had to make up its own legend. As always, read along on our substack. (If you want a more thorough version of this history, read "Kingdom of Prep" by Maggie Bullock.) Theme song by Soraya Perry.

What do the GAP, Anne Taylor, Old Navy, and J.Crew have in common?   Well, aside from having a wide selection of stylish clothing, they were all run by the same guy, Millard "Mickey" S. Drexler.   In the 1980s when it appeared as though Anne Taylor would have to close its doors, Mickey was named CEO and victoriously revived the well-known fashion company, doubling its number of stores. He joins Liz to discuss how a kid from the Bronx managed to become one of the most successful retail clothing CEOs in history. Follow Liz on Twitter: @LizClaman Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of 5to9, I had a chat with Justin Bridges, a photographer, holistic financial coach, fractional CMO for tech startups, writer of the Growers newsletter, and a proud plant dad.Justin started his career as a Wall Street analyst at Goldman Sachs, and quickly realized that he disliked the culture and was craving to do something more creative. He then pivoted into fashion, working as a planner and buyer at Jcrew and Saks Fifth while pursuing fashion and lifestyle photography on the side. He then worked for an OG fashion blog, the Sartorialist, as a photographer, which took off his lifestyle fashion career, shooting for brands like Kith, Pyer Moss, GQ, Highsnobiety, and Everlane just to name a few. He is a also top instructor on Skillshare teaching photography and personal finance to over 150 thousand students. In 2021, he joined the team at El Camino Travel, a company that curates conscious, intimate group travel experiences for women as their co-founder and CMO. After leaving El Camino, he now runs a photography studio, is a fractional CMO for tech start-ups, writer of his newsletter Growers, and continues to tinker with many different projects.We talked about his ever-evolving creative career, theories on networking, why you shouldn't pursue your passion, a reframe of imposter syndrome, his policy of constantly trying something new, and more.This is Justin Bridges for 5to9.
