Banana Republic and J.Crew Are Stocked for the Holidays—26 Party Pieces to Shop
Despite the fact that it's currently 70° and sunny in New York City, the holiday season is fast approaching. No matter how hard you try to keep your calendar from mid-November to early January as sparse as possible, it's inevitable that a handful of invites that require a positive RSVP will fall into your lap. For those occasions that require your attendance, party looks are essential. Now, all you have to do is figure out which ones.
According to my latest market sweep, two retailers specifically have that area covered: J.Crew and Banana Republic. For two brands that would hardly be at the top of our holiday wish lists six months ago, J.Crew and Banana Republic are proving to be the ones to beat for party looks in 2022.
