Jean Queen Donna Ida Thornton is the curator of the modern wardrobe with an iconic denim brand.
Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Donna Ida Thornton moved to the UK in 1999 for a career in marketing when she spotted a gap in the market. While out shopping one day Donna realised she couldn’t find anywhere to buy jeans that she felt truly comfortable in. So when a friend suggested that Donna should open a boutique that just sold jeans, she did exactly that.
