JCPenney is rewriting the meaning of back-to-school style by spotlighting identity, culture, and creative storytelling at the center of its latest collaboration with Latin pop sensation and Latin GRAMMY-winner Joaquina. For Joaquina, this partnership is a transformative, personal milestone. As she shares, “I poured my younger self into this collection – the girl who mixed Spanish + English like her own secret language and never saw herself in the dressing room mirror. JCPenney let me tell my story in every stitch.”

Fans can shop the entire Joaquina collection online or visit select JCPenney locations across the country.
