My Style, My Space | Fashion Designer Jenna Lyons Walks Us Through Her New York Apartment | ELLE UK

Jenna Lyons, ex-Creative Director of J.Crew, designer and commentator, opened her doors to ELLE UK, as part of our new video series My Style, My Space, for a guided tour of the spacious SoHo loft, so that we might all learn a thing or two from its arrangement.
From a mantlepiece laden with impressive works of art to a walk-in shoe wardrobe, Lyons' home is unsurprisingly one we dream of.

I love how personal and affectionate she is towards the items she has in her home. It’s all intentional and treasured, to me that’s exactly what a home should be.

[@ALEXAWRIGHT]

That marble bathroom is incredible!

[@arlinejernigan]

I didn't want that to end!!! I want to see the whole house.

[@dcoughla681]

Sensational apartment. The styling is so self assured, confident & sophisticated. Even though Jenna Lyons has the money to spend big on her home (the bathroom & the art), her eclectic high-low, ridiculously good taste is an inspiration. Wonderful.

[@linageseviciute589]

I just stopped the video where she is at her book shelves to look through the books she owns. This apartment is a pure reflection of a personality growth through out the years. The thing we own tells a story of us. The display shelve in my opinion is a great idea, helps to build up the ideas and inspiration.

[@superclaireify]

nice how it’s so candid but it would be much better if the camera did a pan of each of the rooms.

[@angelavanpatten7964]

This home is so elegant, airy, artful, personal and inviting. I love it!

[@MrPiper77]

the bathroom!!! love the mix of marble and bronze....

[@annishilcock4587]

Love the display shelf! What a cool idea to have inspiration constantly in your sight and swap it around and move on.

[@heymarey150]

I missed Jenna!!! Thank you sooo much Elle.

[@judedavis7967]

Love this! Incredible real home. Reflects her rather than trends.

[@nonsequitur9332]

her bathroom is like omfg. love it!

[@oliviacasino8888]

Finally!!! A toilet room and I mean room, where if you forget reading materials for moments of needed leisure...there’s a plethora of interest on walls! How extraordinaire!

[@traceyjackson4162]

Ohhh Jenna..... I need more of her in my fashion life🥰.... maybe one day.

[@missjohnnyhayes]

I see Jenna Lyons, I click.

[@maritzanc]

Impressed by her book collection. I'd love to own Matisse's Jazz and Henry Darger's copy.

[@bethperry3613]

I always wanted to put some of my favorite cards/items in a bathroom, just randomly all over the walls since the 90s. I will do it!! Love her style.

[@ocimak]

Be careful. The spray from toilets is microscopic but still there. Hence why they tell you keep your toothbrush far away from the toilet or in a cabinet. Odd place to put momentos you want to touch and keep

[@maryfitzpatrick3252]

@@ocimak Not odd if placed strategically to insure they are protected.

[@marsvai2410]

@@ocimak I think its definitely a deliberate and odd almost provocative artwork / statement to put all her family photos and photos of her son in the toilet.

[@seven3962]

just keep the lid closed when u flush

[@laurendesignchick]

I miss Jenna’s creative genius at J. Crew. The brand really suffered when she left.

[@uptownsunni3560]

@hvcshow Well, they HAVE declared bankruptcy.

[@MollyPorter]

J.Crew was on the decline well before Jenna left. They lost touch with their customer.

[@chicnoir29]

True but I also hate that she championed high water pants.

[@christinetucci9227]

She's a brilliantly creative, gorgeous woman.

[@soundrasimpson7885]

I absolutely love her shoe game....totally on point!

[@nancykahn4125]

Love her asthetic...purely personal and glowing...books, books, books

I just adore this woman. Beautiful home!

[@priscillawagner8520]

I loved her shoe closet!🌼♥️ I also loved her lip art.

[@blindfoldme4841]

iconic designer that needs to be in a huge fashion house

[@maryfitzpatrick3252]

But she doesn’t want to be in a huge fashion house !

[@ssuwandi3240]

She learned a lot after being replaced for fast fashion Jcew.. Truly disappointing Jcrew wanna be Zara.. instead of Brook Brothers 😎

[@katewebber9762]

i’m obsessed with this woman

[@arlenehutchinson9259]

Candles 🕯 during the day 💯 I'm there for it.

[@MTMF.london]

That mantlepiece with tins of baked beans and the framed "art" plus that shredded sleeves of her shirt - just too hilarious.

[@mybagoftheday1722]

You mentioned all the details I LOVED 😊

[@ayuodagiri1577]

omg, such a beautiful house and jenna lyons is a walking style icon!

[@jamesdemasi7077]

I am absolutely interested in the informality of everything and anything put together and having order which is appealing to the eyes.

[@wanjerigatheru1350]

Such a beautiful house, would have loved to see the rest of it 😍

[@melaniamonicacraciun9900]

Loved this interesting apartment. Bathroom marble amazing and the little toilet cubby was a great idea.

[@dj9857]

Okay, I adored you before but after I saw your candlesticks which look like my collection and then you mentioned Cy Twombly....well, I officially can't get enough of you. Just finished binging your show. I devoured it. You're so cool and humble and empathetic. Can we be friends please? Congrats on your new chapter.

[@nileshchinchagharkar3384]

Thank you for great content... Learning is eternal process..

[@alottoflove3617]

Love! Please show more.

[@kateforsyth1133]

I recognized our library. You must come for In the Stacks concerts there after, well after! It’s an amazing experience

[@KACDWFCD]

Stopped video for a0 moment..Looked up Henry Darger...Mind blow!!!

[@hellodolly2551]

Take a shot of how many times she says ‘ I don’t know if you know this artist but they’re amazing’ lol

[@TheCBKgirl]

Pretentious right?? The art was laughable. So are all the name dropping she and all others of her ilk do. "oh, this is a piece of shit by my favorite excrement curator, Mon de la CaCa isn't it fab??" Hardly stinks except on really hot days.

[@sunnymoodful]

@@TheCBKgirl yeah the artwork is just awful.

[@Nick-gu2xb]

Love this space, and her. Can't wait to see her on RHONY

[@elizabeths4371]

I like her taste in art and how she's dressed her home.

[@nasithach8027]

love Jenna!!

[@themango9644]

I love that she decorated her toilet room because it's something that most people don't think about but it's actually really smart because when you're on the toilet usually bored so looking at all of those pictures and whatever decoration she has up in the toilet room will help keep her occupied I think that's really cool and honestly I've never thought of that

[@marsvai2410]

Definitely an interesting statement to put all ur family photos in the toilet

[@Geniere10]

I doubt it’s smart as you state it to be. It’s not sending out good energy. I mean a toilet is not some sanctum whereas your personal collectibles and family pictures are! I think feng shui which actually is a very smart science would agree!

[@karine9861]

OMG Jenna 👸🏻🙏😍I like her so much. I really admire everything that she does.

[@rmonson5002]

There is some serious name dropping going on here. Something tells me we don't run in the same circles. Doubt I'll be running into her or her crowd at the Piggly Wiggly. But I did enjoy the tour and love the marble bathroom!

[@anggrainilatifah1616]

That toilet is inspiring. Like, upper level

[@kefbana2891]

Cool Woman. The shoe room is amazing including the color and fabric of the couches and curtains there. The light that shines through and the way the window opens is also quite charming. I love this house and it’s very much like my home decor too. Eclectic.

I really like the Cy Twombly print, and i normally don't really like stuff like that. I was also curious as to how much an original print like that would cost and another of that same print sold at Sotheby's for 139,000€ !!!

[@amparocavriolet3323]

Who’s the artist who did the one she bought in Paris? I couldn’t understand her

[@meshiawriter]

Not sure if that's how she normally sounds, but to me her tone was sad like quarantine was really taking its toll in her. Especially when she said "we usually work downstairs but nobody's here." It's still very surreal that lockdown ever happened.

[@wendytruesdale9430]

Her artwork explains quite a bit about her affliations Twombly,basquiet but the book she held up Djurdjevit-favorite of the podesta brothers. Check it out! Not a real tour maybe a comm.

Yeh I literally shrieked for my first Japanese toilet experience too. I mean, there’s a button for a fake flush noise y’all.

[@judydyer]

Her space is wonderful! Love the "bangs" she has on back hair. I'm definitely going to have that done; great for the ponytail or bun look. But. What's w/ the raggedy cuff? is that "style" or just a damaged shirt she can't part with or..have mended??
