J. Crew Taps ex-Gap CEO - Mickey Drexler, who brought the Gap family of stores into ubiquity, is now poised to aid J. Crew in their expansion and operations. Drexler was on the board of directors of Restoration Hardware when I worked there, and he was universally regarded with respect and awe for his strategic planning at Gap. But, as we all know, Gap, Banana and Old Navy have languished lately. Given the particularly tight focus of most J. Crew merchandise toward preppy, I'm interested to see what kinds of superficial and tangible changes we'll see at J. Crew stores, marketing and reputation in the future.
