    Lindsay Nicholas New York promises to be an exciting new shop at Galleria Dallas.

    Lindsay Nicholas

    North Dallas shopping center Galleria Dallas continues its expansion momentum with a slate of new concepts and brands being added to its roster. Those include three new first-in-market brands, plus retailers, restaurants, and a pop-up boutique.

    These new stores follow the opening of the center’s 27,586-square-foot flagship H&M, which contains the first-in-Texas H&M Home. And Netflix House — an immersive movie experience venue that's a combination of Netflix merch store, film house, and restaurant-bar — will be coming to the center in fall 2025, one of two announced in the U.S.

    Here's the newcomers:

    Uniqlo. Japanese fashion favorite offering clothing and accessories for men, women, and children, will open a first-in-market 20,000-square-foot two-story flagship store, near Mango on Levels 1 and 2. (Galleria is one of three to open in DFW, along with Stonebriar Centre in Frisco and The Parks Mall at Arlington.) Opening in October.

    The Royal Standard. The brand, which sells fashion, gifts, and home accessories, will open a first-in-market retail location on Level 2 at Center Court. Opening in September.

    Lindsay Nicholas New York. Women's fashion brand will open its first U.S. retail store on Level 1 near Gucci. The pop-up will carry wardrobe essentials with an emphasis on luxurious fabrication and intentional design, with styles that make a statement. Opening in September.

    Lululemon. Fitness name is expanding its Galleria Dallas presence by nearly doubling its footprint with a new location on Level 1 across from Apple. Lululemon will remain in its Level 2 space until the new store is complete. Opening late 2024.

    Pandora. Jeweler will remodel and expand its footprint while operating in a temporary location on Level 1, next to Tommy Bahama.

    Gregory’s. Designer apparel for women and men recently moved to a temporary location next to Gucci on Level 1 while its permanent store is under construction. The new space will be between Gucci and the shopping center entrance near The Westin.

    Knots & LoopsAdorable bear from Knots & LoopsKnots & Loops

    Knots & Loops. Dallas-based crochet creations boutique, offering handcrafted pieces by women artisans: from crocheted penguins to dolls and baby rattles — perfect whimsical plush gifts made with love. Now open on Level 3 near Earthbound Trading Company.

    Deseri. Black-owned handbag pop-up on Level 1will remain open next to Intimissimi through the end of the year.

    Uncle Sharkii. Houston-based poke concept does bowls, boba tea, and Dole soft-serve. Now open on rink level.

    If you haven't been, the center has also created dramatic new entries near Gucci and Bachendorf’s as well as the outdoor plaza adjacent to North Italia. And during 2024, all restrooms in the shopping center are to be upgraded. That's yuge. Additionally, the center’s signature digital board over the ice rink will be replaced with the latest technology.

    “Big things are coming to our shopping center, showing us a glimpse of the Galleria Dallas of the future,” Galleria Dallas General Manager Angie Freed says in a statement.

    Iconic Marilyn Monroe 'Happy Birthday, Mr. President' dress comes to Dallas

    Marilyn Monroe's iconic 'Happy Birthday, Mr. President' dress is going on display at Ripley's in Grand Prairie.

    The dress worn for the most famous (or, infamous) rendition of "Happy Birthday" in American history is going on display in Dallas-Fort Worth. Marilyn Monroe's iconic "Happy Birthday, Mr. President" gown will be showcased at Ripley's Believe It or Not! in Grand Prairie for a limited time, beginning Friday, June 5.

    The display coincides with what would have been the legendary actress and pop culture icon's 100th birthday. Monroe was born June 1, 1926 as Norma Jeane Mortenson.

    The sparkling gown became part of entertainment lore on May 19, 1962, when Monroe wore it while singing "Happy Birthday" to U.S. President John F. Kennedy at his 45th birthday gala and fundraiser at Madison Square Garden. She shimmied onstage, shed a white fur coat to reveal the sparkly skin-tight dress, and delivered a sultry, breathy "Happy Birthday."

    Afterwards, JFK said to the crowd, "I can now retire from politics after having had Happy Birthday sung to me in such a sweet, wholesome way."

    Many historians believe Kennedy and Monroe had a romantic relationship.

    Notably, Ripley's in Grand Prairie is just about 12.5 miles from the JFK Memorial and Sixth Street Museum in downtown Dallas.

    Designed by French-born costume designer Jean Louis, the sheer dress was embellished with more than 6,000 hand-sewn rhinestones and created the illusion that Monroe was wearing almost nothing at all — a daring fashion statement that helped cement the "Happy Birthday" moment in pop culture history.

    The dress is considered one of the most famous garments ever worn. In 2016, Ripley's purchased it for $4.8 million, a price that at the time made it the most expensive dress ever sold at auction.

    In 2022, they loaned it to Kim Kardashian to wear to the Met Gala. It was reportedly returned with some missing crystals and stretched seams.

    Visitors to the Grand Prairie museum will be able to see the gown up close, along with additional memorabilia tied to Monroe's life, career, and legacy, an an exhibition called "Happy 100th Birthday, Marilyn Monroe."

    "Marilyn Monroe remains one of the most recognizable icons in pop culture history," Ripley Entertainment regional manager Rachel Rotella said in a statement. "With visitors looking for unique experiences across North Texas this summer, this is a rare opportunity to see Marilyn Monroe's dress that represents one of the most unforgettable moments in Hollywood history."

    The Monroe display is included with regular admission to Ripley's, which features hundreds of oddities, artifacts, and interactive exhibits. The exhibit opens June 5 and will be on display for a limited time.
