Since Ann Taylor is the DC uniform, I keep pretty close tabs on their merchandise. Recently, there as been a noticeable change in the aesthetic. In case you haven’t heard, the Creative Director over at The Loft’s Lou & Grey line took over the creative directing at all three brands. Austyn Zung is definitely breathing some new life into the brand. I don’t think it’s a dramatic change but we are definitely seeing different fabric, color, and silhouette choices. Looking though the preview of the collection, I’m interested to see what they release in stores next.

There are a lot of two piece outfits:

Ponte everything:

And palm frons:

Bold separates:

And some solid work wear basics:

Let’s see what they do next!
