British lines now at Phipps
Lovers of fast fashion were happy to see Topshop and Topman unveiled at 14 Nordstrom stores nationwide last week. Nordstrom at Phipps Plaza is one of the lucky locations. The collection includes a selection of the best items from the famed British retailer along with some items exclusive to Nordstrom. It is a great way for Topshop to expand its reach beyond New York, Las Vegas and Chicago — the only U.S. cities where the brand has brick and mortar stores. You can also order items from the collection online at www.nordstrom.com.
