J. Crew's replacement plan for Lyons will be promoting current women's head of design Somsack Sikhounmuong to chief design officer. The departments that reported to Lyons will now report to Drexler.
"Somsack and our design teams have a deep understanding of the aesthetic and style our customers rely on us to deliver, with a proven track record of driving creative vision in line with our brand DNA,” Drexler said. "We are excited to extend Somsack’s vision across all design categories and look forward to the team’s contributions. As always, delivering the very best product, value and brand experience across channels is our top priority.”
