Thanks to their heavily styled, exquisitely lighted, smart-copied catalogs, J. Crew is now the king of retail fashion. The updated prep behemoth unveiled their Fall 2010 menswear this week at New York’s MILK Studios on an open-air terrace. Invite yourself to a sneak peek of the tailored classics—and the somewhat attractive male models.

The usual blazers, washed-out jeans and puffer jackets were all in attendance, as well as a light grey suit and neutral shirts in shades of olive and beige. Denim was also worn dark and cuffed or pipe-cleaner straight, paired with shiny black oxfords with no socks. A plaid jacket resembling a thick flannel as well as scarves and trenches also made their way into the mix. Take a look at the slice of Americana below.
