Former J.Crew Execs Just Relaunched a Major Competitor for the Brand instyle.com

Former J.Crew chief design officer Somsack Sikhounmuong has been quiet since leaving the American retailer in September 2017 after 16 years. Now, a year and a half later, he’s joining forces with Millard “Mickey” Drexler, J.Crew’s longtime ex-chairman and chief executive (he resigned in January, but still owns 10 percent of the company), on a venture that just may become their former employer’s biggest competition.
