- Jenna Lyons is one of the most influential women in fashion. As creative director at J.Crew, she is credited with giving the brand her unique style, catering to everyone from celebrities to students. But as the company struggles with falling profits and tries to expand abroad, Lyons has her work cut out for her. Norah O'Donnell reports.

She is so talented! Her time at J Crew was special and profitable. Knowing her story makes you respect her accomplishments even more.
Actually the company went down the tubes under her
They went bankrupt and she was forced to leave
@@marciamakoviecki3295 Because they let her take on too many roles for one person with little support, not because she's not capable.
She was never replaced -- they had a new CEO but also never had someone so invested in the creative process top down - it's a regular fashion brand now.
@@marciamakoviecki3295 who cares! this was years ago boo
@@brettk3588 nope, don't care at all. But to say she built the brand... quite the opposite happened. They died a painful death under her watch
Jenna Lyons is an icon. So interesting seeing this time capsule of her life before RHONY. So much respect for her. A real working influential woman. Wow.
She looks way WAY better in 2023. How is that possible?
New teeth and cosmetic procedures
Living well and doing right by others will do that to ya!
J.Crew helped me find my personal style 10 years ago, and I have worn it almost exclusively ever since.
Love Jenna. Can’t wait to see her on the Real Housewives of New York
She was the reason I had to have every single catalog.
I love Jenna. I think she's worked really hard. The tv journalist needs some work tho. To me she came across as condescending. Jenna was very cordial & articulate.
That's what happens when these journalists interview someone more intelligent and articulate than them. And mostly if that person is a woman. Both male and female journalists do this to intelligent women. It's pathetic.
She's such an inspiration. I love her style and personality SO much.
Silvana Di Ravenna Me too. A proposito, che bel nome che hai 👍
Grazie Mille :)
Prego :-) . Ignora quel deficiente che ha commentato sotto il tuo primo commento. Che frana ahah.
Oh, she got a whole makeover - nose, face and teeth! Money well spent!!! Brava!
She is stunning now
Yes I didn't even recognize her
I loved the Jenna Lyons era of J.Crew!
99% of my closet is from J.Crew, love her and her unique style, such an inspiration.
Unique???? Its no different then gap bananna rebublic pʻd navy express
I worked for jcrew in college and gap during grad school….not only the Hampton style that’s prevalent J Crew…the fabric/quality is quite a bit different from the crap and banana republic.
I like Jenna Lyons. She’s my favorite housewife
I'm addicted to j crew blogs and actually bought several "style hacks" pieces that I never thought would look good on me. My only gripe is that they run out of pieces and don't seem to bring them back??
Great to listen! Wonderful personality! 😘🍵
Wow, I forgot there was life before covid. Ms. Jenna is pretty awesome.
This was an inspiring watch!
She looks much better now! My goodness! Teeth change EVERYTHING!
Yes they do 😂
Is this the same woman on New york housewives? She looks really different here
girl this was almost a decade ago LOL
@@alexapavlovic she looks older here, a decade ago. Her jawline now is amazing. I didn't know she had work is what I'm saying
@@elexalovetarot2870 i thought you meant she looks much older NOW lmao
@@alexapavlovic no, I'm all about features. This woman was plain Jane, she is now all Face!!! I thought her structure was hers naturally
Her teeth definitely play huge part
Cuando yo sea grande, yo quiero ser como ella. 😊
i love j crew esp their coats!
I would have fought everyone who bullied her. She's my queen, even in 2020.
Hey, I'm all the way in Cape Town but I would have made that trip. I wanted to cry when she said that. It's a shame but she made it...
What s the style other than sweaters with a button down?
she has no fashions did you see her latest interview she wore a grey sweatshirt with a brighter than the sun PINK skirt that covered her entire body down to her shoes, absolutely horrendous outfit
She is not a classic beauty but she has style and lots of flair.
J Crew is gone and I don’t miss it. All over the place in terms of branding. Chico’s is known for their florals and free shipping. 😆 JJILL for their high natural fiber content that is still affordable. Soft Surroundings for a balance of feminine, resort, casual wear. Nordstrom for hand bags and shoe 👠 departments.
Mephisto for $$$$ footwear, but always high quality.
Yes, and Jenna ran it into bankruptcy
I think I've found my new hero.
Love Jenna
Go Jenna...Love you on Housewives
I love Jenna but the company ditched so many loyal employees during that downturn
And eventually bankruptcy
what an ageless icon.
is she like a Steve jobs character?
Can we get the current CEO and former on the current abortion on record to speak. On the issue
How does someone get the job as a creative director, they come to you or?
You either get a degree and intern into a specific fashion company or the people you know will get you there. Nowadays it more of "Who you know instead of what you know" that gets you a job.
J Crew has gone way downhill since Jenna left.
Jenna ruined JCrew by being to creative and they went bankrupt.
@@jenniferl1908 I partly agree. She started off great, but by the end of her tenure, the clothes were too far out. I still have some of her early pieces, and the quality is unmatched.
she's hot
Grown people talking about bullying. Sad
You realize that Trumps behavior is due to his father bullying him right? And lack of affection right? People are built based on their traumas. Some cope, some became narcissists, some become bullies themselves.
I used to love Donna Karan . I don’t now.
Why doesn't anyone tell her those glasses make her look like those glasses with the nose attached that you get at novelty stores.....
oh wow
Abel Torres does she care
powerhouse...? she put the company in serious financial trouble. she's lucky she's has a job.
she has no fashions did you see her latest interview she wore a grey sweatshirt with a brighter than the sun PINK skirt that covered her entire body down to her shoes, absolutely horrendous outfit
and J Crew is a horrible company with how they treat employees
Too expensive clothes boring
Why why don’t gayle invest in better wigs
And she cause J Crew to collapse by being to exclusive!
Ran J Crew into the ground
The worst job to work for
Karen!
I guess you must be a red pill incel where every woman is a Karen
Who you?
That's as may be for the women's line. For me, Lyons ruined the JCrew menswear. I haven't been able to fit into the menswear since it went all skinny and narrow-shouldered.
She's creeping me tf out.I know its probably not true but she looks like a fierce feminist
Martin is obviously intimidated by strong, successful women because he knows he'll never amount to anything. Don't sweat it, girl.
