How to Elevate Your Everyday Look with J. Crew’s Creative Director

She’s the woman behind your dream wardrobe (and those viral office mirror selfies). Olympia Gayot, Creative Director and EVP of Women’s & Children’s Design at J.Crew, joins Molly and Emese for a conversation on how she made J.Crew cool again—and why personal style doesn’t have to feel intimidating. We dive into her journey from studying painting to leading one of America’s most iconic brands, how motherhood unlocked a new layer of creativity, and the styling tricks she swears by (including her half-tuck and sleeve roll). Olympia shares the wardrobe staples every woman should own, how to curate a “uniform” that feels like you, and why the right belt or shoe can change everything. Plus, we get her forecast on fall’s biggest trends—from suiting and cashmere to skirts, stripes, and barn jackets—and the high/low philosophy that keeps her looks effortless and accessible. Effortless, intentional, and candid, this episode is part style masterclass, part behind-the-scenes peek into the J.Crew renaissance.
