    Neiman Marcus to close store at Willow Bend in Plano after 25 years

    Saks Global has sold the Neiman Marcus store at the Willow Bend mall in Plano and will close it in January 2027.

    Willow Bend Mall is the two-level mall

    According to a spokesperson, “We have sold the Neiman Marcus Willow Bend property to the developer that is reimagining The Shops at Willow Bend. The store will remain open until January 2027 as the developer progresses on various phases of the area’s reimagination."

    According to a release, the sale was "a mutual decision that allows the developer to bring its vision for the area to life, building on the retail foundation with the introduction of new residential, dining and entertainment uses."

    The sale also allows Saks Global to "strategically reinvest in areas of our business that drive growth and position the company for long-term success."

    This marks the second big change for Neiman Marcus in Dallas in a year, following the potential closure of the flagship store in downtown Dallas — a closure that the city of Dallas is fighting valiantly to avoid. The current plan is for the downtown location to stay open through the end of 2025.

    The Plano store opened in August 2001, part of the bigger splashy debut of the Shops at Willow Bend, where it served as one of four anchor stores along with Foley's, Lord & Taylor, and Dillard's.

    In trademark Neiman Marcus fashion, the store was luxuriously appointed with mother-of-pearl countertops, tinted polished plasters, custom area rugs, hand-made slumped art glass walls, Murano glass light fixtures, and an eye-catching bufterfly art installation that hovered over an expansive three-level escalator atrium.

    But the timing of the opening — one month before 9/11 — was unfortunate, and Taubman, the mall's developer, was thought to have overestimated the buying power of its West Plano neighborhood. Dillard's is still open, but Lord & Taylor closed in 2003. Foley's became Macy's in 2005, which just closed in January 2025. The mall has since changed hands many times; it was acquired in 2022 by Cawley Partners, Centennial, and Waterfall Asset Management.

    According to Saks Global's statement, there are no plans to replace or relocate the store.

    "Through the regular course of business, we continually evaluate our store footprint and, as in this case, may determine it necessary to reformat or close a store. There are currently no plans to reduce our store portfolio on a broader scale."

    The company says it will continue its plan to re-invest in the NorthPark store and "reimagine" the downtown Dallas location.

    "Dallas-Fort Worth continues to be an important market for the company. We are continuing to work in collaboration with the City of Dallas on a potential reimagination of the Neiman Marcus Downtown Dallas store, and are making great progress on the upcoming Neiman Marcus NorthPark transformation."

    They're also going to take care of their employees.

    "We are committed to treating our Neiman Marcus Willow Bend colleagues with respect and fairness throughout the closing process. As we wind down operations, transfer opportunities to other stores in the DFW metroplex will be offered where possible, and eligible colleagues will be offered appropriate separation packages.”

    3 global retailers to make Texas debut in Dallas' Knox St. development

    A giant mixed-use development in the Knox Street neighborhood that will include a hotel, office, residential, restaurants, and retail has revealed the first four stores moving in, and three are making their Texas debut: lifestyle brands Doen, Staud, and Toteme. TWP, which has a location at Highland Park Village, will also open up shop at Knox Street.

    “After years of strategic planning and forging incredible partnerships, we are collaborating with the best brands and teams across every industry to create a truly distinct vision for world-class shopping, dining, hospitality, and residential living,” says Sabrina Gleizer, partner, BDT & MSD Partners, in the release.

    The project is a joint venture partnership of MSD Partners, Trammell Crow Company, The Retail Connection, and the owners of Highland Park Village. It sits on a four-acre site adjacent to the Katy Trail and is expected to open in 2026.

    Upon completion, it will total one million square feet of mixed-use space, including a hotel managed by the Auberge Resorts Collection.

    “We’re extremely excited to bring such a dynamic collection of prominent brands, with both global and local prestige, to Knox Street,” says Stephen Summers, head of retail leasing for Knox Street, in the release.

    Without further delay, here are descriptions of all four retailers coming to Knox Street, as described, in full, in the release (including the all-CAPS style):

    DÔEN
    "Launched in 2016 and founded by Santa Barbara-born sisters, Margaret and Katherine Kleveland, and a Collective of partners, DÔEN is a digitally-led, multi-channel fashion and lifestyle brand. Their mission is to create lasting, beautiful collections while supporting individuals in all aspects of their organization, supply chain, and community. The collections celebrate womanhood, thoughtfully designed for women and the bustling, busy, and beautiful lives they live in their clothes. The pieces are meticulously crafted to be passed on for generations, evoking a timeless whimsy and an unapologetic femininity. The brand works with domestic and international partners who share their values and commitment to gender and social equality as well as giving back by partnering with foundations that directly benefit their employees and surrounding communities. DÔEN’s current shops include Brentwood Country Mart, Montecito Country Mart, Lido Marina Village and Marin Country Mart in California, in addition to locations in New York City, Sag Harbor and Nantucket."

    STAUD
    "In 2015, Sarah “Staud” Staudinger and George Augusto co-founded the LA-based lifestyle brand STAUD upon the idea that fashion shouldn’t just empower women – it should be accessible, too. At the heart of STAUD is design. Crafted at the intersection of timeless classics and perfect novelty, STAUD offers a collection of clothing, handbags, shoes and accessories to the modern woman who appreciates both. Current locations include Los Angeles, New York, Palm Beach, Boston, East Hampton, Nantucket, Georgetown, and a pop-up at MARKET in Highland Park Village."

    TOTEME
    "TOTEME is a fashion house rooted in Swedish sensibilities, modern aspirations and the notion of style. With an appreciation for women’s many roles and how pieces are worn in practice, TOTEME crafts emblematic designs with an emphasis on materiality and shape. Archetype pieces are examined through a female lens and realized with sumptuous fabrics, rich textures and graphic silhouettes. Representing a direct and decisive way of dressing, the collections are contextualized in curated edits, visuals and spaces. TOTEME was founded in 2014 by Elin Kling and Karl Lindman. From its atelier in Stockholm, the house creates ready-to-wear, shoes, bags, accessories and jewelry. TOTEME currently has store locations in New York City, Los Angeles, and Aspen."

    TWP
    "Trish Wescoat Pound has spent a lifetime dedicated to designing clothes for Women. Trish founded TWP to offer her own take on American sportswear; effortless, unbound, understated pieces that complement the reality of women’s lives. Raised in Oklahoma, although undoubtedly a New Yorker at heart, she blends the utilitarian spirit of the American Midwest with a metropolitan sensibility. Each season draws upon Trish’s core influences: American heritage workwear, men’s inspired shirting and tailoring, and the brand’s home, New York City. Working with her daughter, Jillian, a stylist, the duo leads the creative across the brand. This intergenerational dialogue – of relevance and wisdom – is a strong source of inspiration to all of Trish’s collections. TWP currently hosts a space in Highland Park Village, in addition to three stores in New York, a boutique in Palm Beach, West Hollywood, and Aspen."
