J. Crew, the nationally recognized retailer of women's, men's and children's apparel, has made Portugal the theme of its new catalogue. In Passport to Portugal, Lisbon co-stars with the chique clothes that make J. Crew a name in fashion. Look for Lisbon in retail shops, catalogue and on-line. The new on-line catalogue features a guide to the city of Lisbon, from phrases, to the best cafes (A Brasileira), to pastry shops (Antiga Confeitaria de Belem), to guide to the locations they shot at. Not that Lisbon is a new background to the cameras. The city has played host to recent Nike commercial and car launches, not to mention major motion pictures such as A Lisbon Story, The Russia House and House of Spirits. The city with its photogenic neighborhoods, sweeping river visas and many monuments makes a great backdrop. J. Crew said this of it on the web: “Bold color mixed with romantic decay… intimate neighborhoods with narrow winding corridors… grand town squares boasting elaborate mosaic pavements… lively sidewalk cafés... Our team spent five days in this charming city of Lisbon and its outskirts capturing both the understated beauty of each setting and the easygoing elegance of every look.” J. Crew operates 243 retail stores, the J. Crew catalog business, jcrew.com, and 78 factory outlet stores.
I love that their catalog has a story and the scenery is amazing. It makes the collection come to life.www.visitportugal.com
I've always wanted to go to Lisbon and this sealed the deal! Definitely want to go now!
