PREVIEW OF THE GALLERIA'S BLOOMINGDALE'S NOV. 8 DEBUT

Glendale Galleria's 2013 Fall Fashion Extravaganza

A highly anticipated Bloomingdale’s store opens Nov. 8 at the Glendale Galleria, which also happens to be wrapping up a major renovation.

With all of this change, it also might be a good idea to shake up the retail center’s annual Fall Fashion Extravaganza, Shoshanna Puccia, the Galleria’s senior marketing manager, said.

The free show will start 4PM Sunday, Aug. 25, at Macy’s Court at the Galleria. It will feature fashions from mall retailers, in the case of the 2013 extravaganza, its looks from Shasa, Silver Jeans and Bloomingdale’s will be on display. The show’s new angle will be to put some of the Galleria’s community partners in the show. The chiefs of Glendale Arts and The Huntington Library, Art Collection and Botanical Gardens will walk the runway.

“It’s a about exposure and community involvement,” Puccia said of the event. “It’s our way to showcase our partners and showcase retail as well.”
