Sundance, a premier lifestyle retailer of women’s and men’s apparel, jewelry, footwear, accessories, home furnishings and art, announces the opening of its newest retail location in Westport, CT. The 3,920 square feet Sundance store will open on May 13 and is located at 97 Main Street in downtown Westport. The new Sundance store will be the retailer’s first location in the Northeast and will complement the center’s fashion-focused retail selection and outstanding dining options. A formal grand opening event, inclusive of ribbon-cutting and charity events, are planned for the fall. A soft opening on the weekend of May 13, 2021, will be limited attendance for social distancing purposes.
Matey Erdos, Sundance CEO comments “The Westport opening marks the first Sundance store in the Northeast and in the greater Tri-State area. The team and I are very excited to make our debut in the region with the downtown Westport location, a natural and clear choice for Sundance. Our loyal customers in the surrounding area have participated in the Sundance lifestyle for years through our beautiful catalog. Bringing the authentic Sundance experience from Utah to Connecticut is an absolute thrill for us.”
Erdos continues “We see Westport as a vibrant community deeply rooted in heritage, tradition, and creative arts, a community greatly aligned with our values. Our beautifully designed store offers an experience through a sense of discovery, storytelling and conversation; an experience not commonly found in the marketplace. The store is thoughtfully curated with the exclusive and quality product the brand is known for. By offering a distinctive shopping experience, one that is true to the brand, we are confident our loyal supporters will make it a great success.”
Guests at the downtown Westport store will immediately feel Sundance’s heritage and artistic character, while experiencing the brand’s authentic and creative style with the craftsmanship of the store design and beautiful merchandise mix. One-of-a-kind pieces and items exclusive to Sundance will be the cornerstone of the product offering.
“Our retail space at 97 Main Street offers a prime location in one of Connecticut’s most affluent shopping districts,” said Anthony E. Malkin, ESRT chairman, president, and CEO. “We welcome Sundance and its future visitors to our Westport waterfront property.”
The Sundance Store in downtown Westport is one of three new stores to open across the country for the retailer this year. For over 30 years, Sundance Catalog’s commitment to inspiring creativity and individuality has served as a guiding principle for artists and designers to reach their creative vision, ultimately leading to the retailer’s commercial success across all channels.
