Yes, we're all well aware of how much you love NYC.

The (traditional) fashion capitals of the world are: Milan, NYC, Paris, and London.

Other cities that have been ranked very highly: LA, Rome, Melbourne, and Tokyo.

Don't question me. I don't wish to be analyzed in such a way.

Mall of America generates so much revenue from shoppers who come from across the country.
What about store selections.. I looked at the mall directory and the options don't compare to galleria or lenox/phipps.. The trendy places I like to shop they are not located there..

I would put Dallas higher on the list for its sheer volume of shopping options. There are 3 or 4 neiman marcus stores and the one downtown is the original store. Contrary to belief there are a lot of privately owned boutiques and specialty stores around Dallas as well.

NY
LA
Vegas
Miami
Chicago
Dallas
SF
Boston
DC
Houston

Yeah store selections is a whole different story. The Galleria is massive, and has so many options, but shoppers visit the Mall of America more annually.

You are sooooooooo obsessed with LA it's so funny... they are not equals when it comes to anything dealing with fashion...


You claim LA has better shopping do the atomophere weather etc... He states NYC is better because it's pedestrian friendly for shopping.. Both reason aren't really good reason to why either city is better for shopping....

Ok that's what shopping is for you go into stores to shop, so if the mall doesn't have that variety then it's not going to have great shopping.. Mall of America only has the annual visits because of the theme park in that mall.. Not because there are great store selections to (shop) at...
