An eyewear line that extends the JILL STUART brand name and feminine design elements into eyeglasses and sunglasses. It expresses individuality and femininity through frame shapes, materials, and colors, and covers the face-focused category distinct from apparel. While JILL STUART itself proposes a full wardrobe including clothing and bags, this line focuses on a product area with a strong accessory character that completes styling. In addition, whereas JILL STUART NEW YORK, another eyewear line, is for babies and children, this line is positioned to offer eyewear primarily for adult women.

A spin-off brand developed from 2005 for babies and children as an eyewear line produced by JILL STUART. Centered on eyeglass frames, it adapts JILL STUART’s romantic design elements into sizes, colors, and motifs for children. While JILL STUART Eyewear for adults offers eyewear that adorns women’s faces, this brand targets younger age groups and serves as an entry point for children into the parent brand’s world. Unlike the apparel brands JILL by JILL STUART and JILLJEAN, it is clearly specialized in both category and target age group.

Stuart Curtis was a spin-off line that JILL STUART announced in 2007 as its first men's collection, adding menswear to the parent brand's primarily womenswear-focused lineup. Unlike JILL STUART's feminine womenswear, it centered on men's silhouettes and tailoring and was planned for retail expansion as an independent collection. Its role differed from lines such as JILL by JILL STUART, which expanded everyday products for women, and the category-specific JILLJEAN; it was positioned as a historical line that established a point of contact with the men's market within the brand family.

Launched in the Fall/Winter 2008 season as a sister brand of JILL STUART, it brings the parent brand’s feminine sensibility into a more everyday wardrobe. While JILL STUART itself strongly emphasizes its collection-oriented and design-focused character, JILL by JILL STUART offers clothing, bags, accessories, and other items that combine elegance and casual style, guided by the idea of “accessible aspiration.” In its 2023 rebranding, it adopted a brand purpose shared with JILL STUART, strengthening the coordination between the two brands. While W/J with JILL STUART extends into the areas of lifestyle and well-being, this brand is positioned as a younger sister brand that makes everyday dressing more accessible.

A bridal line that extends JILL STUART’s feminine design and brand name to the special occasion of marriage. Centered on wedding dresses and colored dresses, it offers new collections and wedding attire original to its shops, creating a customer touchpoint clearly distinct from the everyday and occasion wear for women proposed by JILL STUART. While EndyROBE, which also serves special occasions, covers occasion wear for weddings, ceremonies, and similar events, JILLSTUART WEDDING is a line within the brand family whose scope is limited to bridal attire itself.

Derived from JILL STUART and launched in July 2016, this category line specializes in denim. While the parent brand offers a broad range of womenswear, including dresses, tops, and outerwear, JILLJEAN is centered on bottoms such as skinny and straight-leg jeans, slit skirts, and jumpsuits. It incorporates feminine silhouettes and the brand’s characteristic feminine elements into denim, serving to broaden the range of bottom options in everyday wear in particular. Unlike JILLSTUART WEDDING, which focuses on bridal attire, and EndyROBE, which is designed for occasions, this line occupies the casual everyday category.

EndyROBE is an occasionwear line that branched off from JILL STUART in fall 2018. Centered on the dresses for which the parent brand had gained support, it offered dresses, tops, and skirts for occasions more formal than everyday wear, such as weddings, ceremonies, and formal meals. While retaining the feminine elements of JILL STUART itself, the line expanded its use to outfits shaped by an emphasis on refinement and intellect. Unlike JILLSTUART WEDDING, which deals in wedding attire itself, it is positioned within the brand family as a line for womenswear that can be worn for multiple occasions rather than being limited to a specific ceremony.

A lifestyle wear line created by both JILL STUART and JILL by JILL STUART, which debuted in March 2024. In addition to fashion that focuses on appearance, it aims to support inner well-being and a diverse range of activities. Its offerings include loungewear, items suitable for both land and water, and products made with functional materials that provide features such as moisture absorption and quick drying, a cool-touch feel, and UV protection. While JILL STUART focuses on its core womenswear and JILL by JILL STUART on feminine everyday wear, W/J with JILL STUART spans both brands, connecting fashion and lifestyle.

A spin-off line that brings the JILL STUART brand image into the footwear category. It offers pumps, sandals, sneakers, and other styles, extending the feminine design elements shared with the parent brand—such as ribbons, bijoux, and tulle—to footwear. While the main JILL STUART brand covers apparel as a whole, this line complements styling for everyday wear and special occasions by focusing its product range on shoes. Unlike JILL by JILL STUART, which broadens its everyday offerings to include bags and miscellaneous goods, and W/J with JILL STUART, which focuses on functionality and active settings, this line presents the brand’s femininity through footwear.
