J CREW will open two additional London stores this autumn.The American brand - whose Regent Street flagship is already planned for November 1 - will also unveil a men's boutique on Lambs Conduit Street and a womenswear shop in Brompton Cross in West London.

The Brompton Cross branch will house limited-edition pieces from the upmarket J Crew Collection line, in addition to exclusive design partnerships from brands such as Comme des Garçons and Penelope Chilvers.The space will open in early November.

The menswear outpost will be at number 38 on Lambs Conduit Street in a nineteenth-century townhouse, and will open its doors for the first time on October 10.The shop - situated in the heart of Bloomsbury - will focus on shirting, but will also sell suiting and pieces from labels including Thomas Mason, London Undercover and Han Kjobenhavn.Customers will also have the opportunity to have their favourite pieces customised.

"I love that every neighbourhood throughout London has its own unique personality - it's a lot like New York City in that way," said Millard Drexler, J Crew chairman and CEO."After a lot of looking around and visiting various areas, we came across these two very different locations and knew - both were too good to pass up."
