They are two different markets. The fact that none of those dept stores are based out of Miami creates an environment where people aren't loyal to a local store. It's just like Nordstrom in Seattle (which I don't think has Saks either).
Having stores that closed is much different than a retailer never having made a debut yet. Dallas may be practicing homerism--your words, not mine-- but It may not be wise to put your eggs in one basket if NM is in deep financial trouble. Diversity is the key to the game, Saks and NM are on opposite sides of The Galleria. Your fashion choices should not beholden to one chain's buyers!

Unlike DFW, which is geared towards locals and regional shoppers, Houston is the other tourist magnet in the South. Miami focuses on Caribbean and South American shoppers, while Houston focuses on Mexico (mostly from CDMX). This helps greatly with keeping both chains in business.

The new Saks store is nice and modern. There is a combo liquor/coffee bar in the middle of the sales floor, great for people watching. Also there is a restaurant upstairs next to the Christian Louboutin boutique. Houston is the first store to have a copy of the 10022-SHOE department in the Manhattan flagship store. Don't be jealous that Dallas missed out!

No one is jealous. Saks simply doesn't offer the same type of customer experience and people in DFW are picky and will move on. Saks closing in Dallas is not an isolated event. Saks scaled back in several other markets as well. My point was that stores competing with Neimans is going to have a tough time here compared to other markets. If anything returns to the market, I'd imagine it would be Bloomingdales.

Kylie opened a pop up shop in Houston. One of 7 across the USA. On the list were Chicago, LA, Vegas, NYC, Atlanta, Miami, and Houston. I remember Dallas used to get all the new retailers and events. The simple addition of the river oaks district is the one thing that flipped the script.

Awesome. Dallas is having issues with retail space availability. There's brands that are on waiting lists to get into places like NorthPark and Highland Park Village as both are full. NorthPark needs to speed up any expansion plans they may have. Lots of stores are now looking more at Knox-Henderson, Uptown and Downtown as retail space is slowly being added to those areas.

Living in a "shopping paradise" isn't high on my list of desired aspects of where to live ... although, I admit that it is fun to check in on this thread occasionally. It seems to have a long life, too.

One thing occurs to me, though -- how many people who make passionate posts here can afford to shop regularly (and extravagantly) at "shoppes" of this kind?

I don't mean to be snide. It's just that I keep struggling to decide whether people (1) can well afford it and just like to have places to buy stuff they like close by or (2) wish they could afford it but still are intrigued by the idea of high-end stuff or (3) just like the idea that the place they live has panache/prestige/snob-appeal and that they can somehow support their egos by knowing that they have such stuff in their city/neighborhood.

All of those are OK ... but, it's just hard to figure out people sometimes.

You dont have to be rich to be into fashion. To some people a city's retail stock is a mental gage to see the capacity a city has to support alot of high end fashion.......Its possible to do this without spending a dime.

The list does serve as a quick economic indicator about the economic health of a metro.

For the common man, places like the Galleria I Street and 2nd levels provides place for a good stroll (and some exercise) for window shopping. I treat my window shopping time as visiting the museum, particularly the "fashion museum", since that is one of the fine arts.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I am a man of distinguished taste in fine high fashion. In fact I'll ONLY shop at the finest Ross Dress for Lesses, H&Ms, and thrift shops. Occasionally if I'm feeling fancy I'll even hit up the GAP Outlet at Grapevine Mills.
