Jennie, we loved watching you on Beverly Hills, 90210 and What I Like About You. Any favorite memories from filming those iconic shows?
I have so many amazing memories, but what stands out for me are the friendships and bonds we all formed; those will be forever. We’re like family, whenever we get together and see one another a few times a year, I just feel like I’m with my brothers and sisters.
Your character, Kelly Taylor, on 90210 served as a style inspiration for many. What was your favorite outfit?
Kelly’s little white baby doll dress from Season 1. I’d still wear it today! Maybe add a few inches to the dress now, though!
How would you describe your summer style?
It’s all about effortless and quiet confidence. I love looks that aren’t fussy. When it’s hot outside, comfortable clothing is the only thing I reach for. So when we were designing the summer collections for Me by Jennie Garth, we focused on that, making sure the pieces feel good to wear while also helping women feel great about themselves.
What made you decide to start Me by Jennie Garth?
I wanted to create something for women like me, who want to feel stylish without trying too hard.
Tell us about the new collection inspired by the Hamptons.
I adore the vibe of the Hamptons! I recently spent time there with my oldest daughter, Luca, and her extended family and just fell in love with the mixture of beaches, farms, and the leisurely energy that seems to flow there. Our Hamptons’ collection is full of relaxed, elevated pieces that feel perfect for beach walks or brunch on the lawn. We pulled a lot of inspiration from the textures and tones you find in this gorgeous area. Think sun-bleached linens, soft cottons, and airy knits.We pulled inspiration from driftwood, dune grass, and giant hydrangeas. There’s an elegance to the Hamptons that we wanted to capture—effortless, pulled together, and wearable from morning to golden hour. Whether you’re barefoot on the sand or hosting friends alfresco, these pieces are meant to move with you and make you feel confident.
What keeps you motivated?
My three daughters. They inspire me to strive to be my best. I want them to think of me as someone who isn’t afraid to challenge myself, someone who always puts family first, and someone who loves with her whole heart. Knowing how important I am to them and that I’ve inspired them keeps me on the right path.
What’s next for you?
Continuing to work hard and grow the world of Me by Jennie Garth, more learning from incredible guests on my “I Choose Me” podcast, striving to create more amazing clothing that encourages women to choose themselves and dress for ease and happiness, staying open to new opportunities, and always dreaming up what’s next!
