THURSDAY, JUNE 5, 2014 ■ $3.00 ■ WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY Drexler, the driving force behind Gap Inc.’s suc- WWD cess in the Nineties, is the rare executive who’s seen as having the magic touch by both Wall Street and the fashion crowd. His hands-on approach and ability to pick product helped put J. Crew back on the map when he took the helm as chief executive offi cer and chairman in 2003. And he will be a very diffi cult man to replace when he decides to step down. Especially now that the company is experiencing a period of slower growth. Late Wednesday, J. Crew said refi nancing costs pushed it to a loss in the fi rst quarter, while adjusted earnings fell and comparable company sales declined 2 percent (after 5 percent growth a year earlier). It was J. Crew’s promise under Drexler that attract- ed deep-pocketed investors TPG and Leonard Green Spot & Partners, who teamed up with the ceo to take the retailer private in 2011 for $3 billion — a price that refl ected what might be called a “Mickey Premium.” They bought not only the company, but Drexler’s stew- 2015 ardship and aura.

Her role in society is limited only by her dreams and desires. One important aim in a woman's life is to appear her best at all times. By careful selection and a proper foundation in the art of clothing, she is well on her way to accomplishing her goal. With a thorough knowledge of her own physical characteristics and a few basics in the fundamental elements of design, the lady may be creative in applying these guides to her own needs. Each piece of clothing can be a delightful reflection of her personality. In considering clothing basics, a very important meaning is assigned to the word "design." It is defined as any arrangement of lines, shapes, textures, and colors.1 These elements, often considered the fundamental and plastic elements, "are funda- mental because they can be manipulated with infinite variety.
