There’s something very war hero-y (yes, that’s a word) about the J Brand x myteresa.com girl. She looks dishevelled, in an I’ve-just-killed-an-alien way. I came to work looking dishevelled this week, in an I’ve-been-pulled-through-a-hedge-backwards way. Antony said I looked “trampy”. Rude. But true. Anyway, this girl looks dishevelled but beautiful. As for the collection, it’s quite war hero-y too: Cropped length military jackets, ankle length jumpsuits, canvas pants, canvas parkas, even a pair of utility Bermuda shorts. “Utility is our heritage at J Brand,” said Lynne Koplin, president of J Brand. “The opportunity to work with mytheresa.com and introduce more extreme silhouettes into these utility styles feels very fresh and modern.” We think it’s the perfect summer wardrobe for alien-killers and trendy Wendys alike.
