Our Concept & Moodboard

jn² | not easily expressed

jn² is short for the french phrase “je ne sais quoi,” which translates to “I don’t know what.”  We used the first letters to create the acronym jnsq which we further shortened to jn². We believe that it expresses the special quality that our designs bring to the fashion world…  Something that cannot be easily expressed.

The designs of our Spring 2015 collection are inspired by paper dolls, and Pierre Cardin who was  popular for his avant-garde designs during the 60’s.  Our palette consist of bright solids and hues, and the silhouettes of our garments focus on shapes like the teardrop which is ladylike, soft, and expressive like a “doll.”

We are creating a look meant for the runway rather than ready to wear.  Our clothing is walking art and we hope to incorporate a sense fashion and theatre into our garments.
