 PROFILE
The J. Jill Group's fortune has been catalog fashion, and catalogs aren't so fashionable anymore. To mend its bottom line, the mail-order house has narrowed its focus to one brand and turned to retail outlets and online sales, with aggressive plans to open new stores in malls across the US . The firm targets active, affluent women ages 35 to 55, and banks on its J. Jill brand. The catalog and the Web site offer private-label casual fashions and weekend wear made in the US and abroad. J. Jill Group hopes the retail approach fills the void left when it ditched its Nicole catalog. Catalog orders ship from a single warehouse in New Hampshire. Putnam Investments and other investors own about a quarter of J. Jill.
