The luxury French fashion house is relocating its Houston boutique from one luxury shopping centre to another.
Balmain is moving a short distance across the highway from the Fertitta Entertainment-owned River Oaks District to Simon Property Group’s The Galleria this summer. Exclusive to the Houston area, this new boutique at The Galleria will feature approximately 2,100sq ft of men’s and women’s ready-to-wear elements within its new in-store concept that will feature a “serene colour palette and delicate features”.
“For decades, The Galleria has remained Houston’s premier choice for high-end fashion,” said Velda Turan, Senior VP of Luxury Leasing at Simon. “Given their bold, distinctive designs and meticulous craftsmanship, the logical home for Balmain is within the exclusive luxury collection at The Galleria. We are very pleased to welcome Balmain to The Galleria and to support their continued success.”
Balmain, which was founded in 1945, is joining more than 50 of the world’s most sought-after fashion brands in calling The Galleria home, including Dolce & Gabbana, Balenciaga, Chanel, Bottega Veneta, Rolex and more. In the past five years, several of The Galleria’s key luxury brands have expanded and enhanced their Galleria boutiques including Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Fendi and Saint Laurent, each of which doubled their footprints.
