Color Crazy

J.Crew is for crazy for color. And we are totally grateful for this obsession. I mean, have you ever noticed the color palette in the corner of their catalogs and wondered exactly how many shades of pink they must play with to get that perfect shade?! 310 shades, apparently. You’ve got to check out this Wes Anderson-like video, which gives us a sneak peek into J.Crew’s color library, and see just how much goes into a single color. Amazing!

    As much as I love a sleek, all-black look, I’m equally as obsessed with color. I want to be saturated in rich, bright colors. It just lightens the mood.

  13. What a wonderfully clever video. Choosing the exact right color can be so important especially in an industry that makes its business on it.

  14. I’m all about living in technicolor. No LBDs for me, well maybe on a rare occasion. This is the reason why I started falling in love with J. Crew – they’re love of color.

    Cheers!

    What a fun video. Reminds me of that episode on how crayons are made from when we were kids – on Sesame Street or Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood… can’t remember which one!
