Quote // Mickey Drexler

Food for thought, pun intended!  My favorite quote from J. Crew CEO Mickey Drexler's interview with Slate.com:

"If Drexler wanted his meatballs on his pizza, he would have ordered them that way. He didn’t, partly because he doesn’t believe in confusing things: food or fashion, you need to be clear about what you stand for."

I completely agree with this statement, though I think it is worth elucidating that opting for a genuinely eclectic style is still a distinct point of view in and of itself.

Talk about food and fashion, here's a Jeremy Scott throwback to a collection that quite literally embodies both (and meatballs, to top!).

Find out Why Fashion is Like Pizza, according to the CEO of J. Crew via Vanessa Friedman for Slate.com.  Ms. Friedman is the Fashion Editor for the Financial Times, for which she also writes a blog.
