I was a total Jones New York girl in the mid to late 90's! I worked in a store that carried the line and I bought from every group that came in, if the color palette suited me. Jacket, skirt, pants, shell or knit, every piece. Then I started on Garfield Marks and Ellen Tracy. ( before the first went out and the second went to Kohls!) then it was on to Lauren Ralph Lauren, still a line I like. I also like Brooks Brothers, I guess I was stifling my preppy side for a while! Through all of this, I've been a Talbots customer, but up and down, depending on what they were offering. I stopped buying Jones because it was starting to look frumpy and they weren't using natural fibers so much.
