You Can Still Shop the Madewell x Alexa Chung Collection Before It Sells Out

After a surprise announcement last week, the best pieces in the buzzy Alexa Chung for Madewell collection are still available to shop — for now.

For some, it may seem like yesterday when Chung’s street style graced Tumblr feeds and her British-twee aesthetic influenced girlish trends like the everyday ballet flat — a signature that lives on over a decade later. In fact, Chung and Madewell collaborated for the first time 14 years ago, back when the style icon was sketching the blueprint for internet It-girls that proceed her today. The collection was a certified mood board of preppy-chic polos, leopard-printed boots, brooches, HotPants (a WWD-coined term), and socks with strappy sandals, which all reappeared on the runways for fall 2024. The style maven has always represented a cool-girl je ne sais quoi with an effortless attitude that speaks for itself, and the new Alexa Chung for Madewell collection fronts her aura with refined sensibilities that elevate autumnal basics.

“Alexa’s style is inspiring and inventive, yet unbelievably approachable and down-to-earth,” Madewell design director Kin Ying Lee told WWD in 2010, ahead of Chung’s first collaboration with the brand. Millard “Mickey” Drexler, chairman and chief executive officer of J. Crew Group, added, “It’s just that Alexa is totally cool. It’s not the way she looks or dresses. It’s the way she is.”

With nostalgia in every stitch, Alexa Chung for Madewell presents a slew of fall wardrobe essentials , including a matching blazer and mini skirt made of chestnut-colored suede, nearly every silhouette of denim to satisfy the doubled-down trend, and enticing updates to wardrobe no-brainers, like an emerald green button-up shirt and Chung’s “dream jeans” made of Japanese denim in a bootcut fit. Her vintage sensibilities ring through in worn-in washes and classic outwear designs, while Madewell’s modern touch of sustainable material sourcing bolsters the evolved feel of Chung’s newest installment. And, after all, she’s your favorite It-girl’s ultimate It-girl — who better to style you for fall?

Below, shop the new Alexa Chung for Madewell collection before it sells out for good — or you may just have to wait another decade.
