After London comes Paris, or at least for J.Crew, who are eyeing the French capital for its next instalment of collegiate fashion.
J.Crew is thought to be opening two stores in Paris in 2015, in addition to its fifth outlet in Lnodon.
The first Paris store, measuring 2,260 square foot, will open next March on Rue Malher, while a men’s store will open nearby in September.
“Paris is one of the great fashion and consumer cities in the world, and lots of French customers are shopping in our New York stores, so it wasn’t a difficult choice,” chief executive Millard Drexler told WWD.
He added that France is now among the top 10 countries for J.Crew’s online business.
In London, the brand plans to open its fifth store in a former bank on Marylebone High Street. It will span 3,000 square foot, opening in Q1 next year, carrying just womenswear.
