Marissa Webb, the former head of women’s wear design at J. Crew, is making over Banana Republic. Her first collection is inspired by heritage Banana pieces, such as the cargo vests and Hawaiian shirts her father wears. Here’s a quiz. Who remembers that the store was founded as an expeditionwear supplier for Safari enthusiasts? Raise your hand!
The collection seems to be a great start to put Banana back on a path to profitability and even to my own closet. I can’t wait for their fall 2015 collection to hit the stores! What do you think?
Happy Shopping,
