Diptyque
Level One between Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom

A festive bienvenue is in order for this Parisian fragrance label that relocated and expanded its footprint with a charming boutique that’s a feast for the senses.

Not only will you find an enticing array of scented candles, fragrances, skincare, and décor, the brand pays homage to Dallas with a mural in the entry salon (created by artists Redfield & Dattner) that’s inspired by the vast beauty of Texas.

What to gift: Winter Trio of small holiday candles, Advent taper candle, and the Hand Care gift box

Hill House
Level One between Nordstrom and Macy’s

Beloved fashion and lifestyle brand Hill House has graced Dallas with its presence — and its cult-favorite Nap Dresses. But you can also find expanded ready-to-wear collections, pajamas and robes, children’s apparel, and accessories in-store.

Texas-based designer CeCe Barfield Thompson designed the interiors using the brand’s custom Red Shell Vine Stripe print to create a canopied front room, complete with dream closets. This is only the fifth store for the brand and the first in Texas. Lucky us.

What to gift: The Ellie Nap Dress in Juniper Tartan, an adorable Penelope The Nap Dress Piggy Critter, The Eleni pajama set

Glossier
Level One near Macy’s

Another first for Texas, Glossier has officially landed in Dallas and the one-of-a-kind boutique is ready for its close-up. The space marries beauty with art, featuring displays that playfully wink at what you might find in a neighborhood art supply or paint shop.

With everything you need to get holiday-party-ready, the store offers swatch strips to help you find the perfect shade while rows of Cloud Paint cheek color tubes adorn the walls. Find your signature scent at the fragrance island, where you’ll learn how the brand’s personalized "You eau de parfum" reflects you.

What to gift: You Discovery Kit, Balm Dotcom in Hot Cocoa, Chrome beauty bag

Wilson
Level One between Macy’s and Dillard’s

Game, set, match! The iconic brand brings its first store to Texas with sportswear, footwear, equipment, accessories, and more, all perfect for the lovers of sport in your life.

But what’s really winning here is the ability to test-drive a new racket at the in-store hitting wall while enjoying racket-stringing services and equipment rentals.

What to gift: Throwback cardigan, mini duffle, Shift 99 V1 tennis racket

Major department store at Galleria Dallas to close this spring

An anchor store at Galleria Dallas is closing: Nordstrom will exit the mall for good, a Galleria spokesperson confirms.

"Nordstrom will be leaving Galleria Dallas, and while we are disappointed to see them go, we remain energized by the momentum of what's ahead," the spokesperson tells CultureMap.

Nordstrom's last day at the Galleria will be May 16, according to WFAA, which was first to break the news.

"Decisions like this are never easy, and we understand the impact they have on our team members," Nordstrom said in a statement supplied to WFAA. "We’re committed to taking care of our employees through this transition, including supporting those who are interested in finding another role within Nordstrom."

The news station reports that Nordstrom's performance in 2025 was the strongest it's been in a decade with total sales growing to an all time high of $15.9 billion, 7 percent higher than in 2024.

Nordstrom's closure at Galleria Dallas follows two other recent big Nordstrom closures, in St. Louis, Missouri and Santa Monica, California. Dick’s House of Sports will be replacing the Nordstrom closing in St. Louis, according to local news reports.

The Galleria Dallas spokesperson declined to comment about what would move into the Nordstrom space.

Eight new stores and restaurants, including Vancouver-based Aritzia and French-inspired bakery Patissery, have joined the Galleria lineup, or are on the way. Netflix House opened there, to much fanfare, in December 2025.

"With eight exciting new retailers just announced — including Aritzia — and even more to come, Galleria Dallas continues to evolve in exciting ways," the mall spokesperson says.

Two Nordstrom department stores remain in Dallas - at NorthPark Center and Stonebriar Centre. The Nordstrom at Northeast Mall in Hurst closed in 2020. Ten Nordstrom Rack discount stores are currently open across Dallas-Fort Worth.
