SEATTLE, Sept. 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading
fashion specialty retailer Nordstrom, Inc. opened the doors to
Nordstrom Domain NORTHSIDE today, the company's second full-line
store in Austin. The two-level,
127,500 square-foot store features five shoe departments, expansive
cosmetics and accessories areas, and a comprehensive offering of
popular brand names for men, women and children. The first
Nordstrom store in Austin opened
at Barton Creek Square Mall in 2003.
"We're excited to be among a great group of retailers here at
Domain NORTHSIDE," said Shannon
Ricca, Nordstrom Domain NORTHSIDE store manager. "We've
enjoyed being part of the Austin
community for the past 13 years and hope our new location makes it
more convenient for customers who live closer to North Austin to shop with us. We can't wait to
show our existing and new customers what we have in store!"
The women's apparel offering features popular fashion brands in
a variety of price points from designers like Alice & Olivia,
Tory Burch, Veronica Beard, Madewell, Topshop and J. Crew,
as well as shoes and handbags from brands such as Kate Spade New
York, Tory Burch and Rebecca Minkoff. Customers will also find a new
At Home department, which houses gifts and home décor items,
including Austin-native brands Son
of a Sailor, Misha Blaise Art and
Satchel & Sage. In the Beauty department, customers will find
brands like MAC, Bobbi Brown, Aesop,
Space NK, Jo Malone and Le Labo perfumerie, which is exclusive to the
new store in Austin.
Nordstrom Domain NORTHSIDE features the company's latest design
concept, which includes more windows to incorporate natural light
and connect the shopping experience to the outside world. The store
also offers a number of special services and amenities including
Curbside Pickup and Same Day Delivery as well as an Buy Online Pick
Up In Store service counter with dressing rooms that make it easy
for customers to try on online purchases, an in-store alteration
and tailor shop, a leather embossing machine to customize leather
goods, certified bra and prosthesis fit specialists and Personal
Stylists – a complimentary wardrobe and shopping service. The store
has two food offerings: Bazille, a contemporary interpretation of
bistro cuisine including a full bar; and the Ebar, for handcrafted
coffee drinks and grab-and-go food options.
Opening day kicked off at 8 a.m.
with a Beauty Bash – a high energy celebration of all things beauty
– just outside the store's entrance. Customers enjoyed a preview of
the store's expansive cosmetics selection as well as one-on-one
time with Nordstrom beauty experts to get the inside scoop on new
products and fall trends. In what has become a Nordstrom tradition,
more than 300 employees welcomed the first customers when the doors
officially opened at 10:00 a.m.
Earlier in the week, Nordstrom underwrote Austin City Social –
an opening party that raised more than $35,000 for Austin Symphony BATS (Be at the
Symphony) and the next generation of Austin music lovers. More than 1,000 guests
were in attendance to enjoy fall fashion presentations, bites and
beverages, as well as live music from locals Tameka Jones and local low grass band Sour
Bridges.
