PHOTOS: J. Crew's New Catalog Draws Criticism

Thursday, May 24, 2012 PHOTOS: J. Crew Shoots Its Preppy Americana In Bali For its latest catalog -- er, "style guide" -- J. Crew decided to take its preppy Americana (and the preppy Americans who model it) on the road. Perhaps feeling an "Eat, Pray, Love" moment coming on, the J. Crew crew headed to Bali, where it photographed the latest spring looks against a backdrop of ancient temples and the village of Ubud. The team also paired their spring models with local Balinese children, "our littlest local friends," wearing traditional religious dress on the steps of a thousand-year-old temple. Are the children adorable? Totally. But some might find J. Crew's "Bali Adventure" slightly off-putting.
