Bloomingdale’s is opening a Bloomie’s store in Seattle, WA, on November 2 within University Village. The smaller store format by Bloomingdale’s provides a “casual, contemporary and highly curated experience for shoppers.” The Bloomie’s store is the retailer’s third to open, with the other stores in Fairfax, VA and Skokie, IL.
The Bloomie’s store is the retailer’s first brick-and-mortar footprint in the Seattle market. The 19,000 square-foot, two-floor store is a “great expression of Bloomingdale’s with a robust offering of brands and services.”
While the store will offer key brands, the company said there is dedicated space for rotating pop-ups and trends, with selected assortments specific to each store location. The Seattle community will reportedly have exclusive access to Sandro, Maje and James Perse brands.
“The expansion to University Village represents the introduction of our Bloomie’s store concept to the West Coast, and we are thrilled to be present in the Seattle market,” said Charles Anderson, director of stores at Bloomingdale’s. “Although this is our first physical storefront in the area, Bloomingdale’s already has an engaged customer base in the Seattle market. We look forward to welcoming those loyal shoppers and new guests within the community to our new location.”
