Curious shoppers are invited to get an early look at the new Nordstrom coming to Vancouver. The public can preview the 230,000 square-foot flagship store during a pre-opening charity fundraising event from Sept. 11 to 12, and a Beauty Bash on Sept. 18 in the morning before the doors officially open.
NORDSTROM BFF (BEAUTY + FIT + FRIENDS) EVENT
Friday, Sept. 11, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Saturday, Sept. 12, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The event will include makeup demos and bra fittings. As well, for every bra purchased from a participating brand, $2 will be donated to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation – BC/Yukon Region. Nordstrom and participating brands will make a minimum donation of $5,000 to the foundation. Appointments are required. Book by calling 1-866-792-6167 for a personalized bra fitting, makeup appointments or beauty classes.
(Speaking of bras – one a personal note, Nordstrom Seattle carries my absolute all-time favourite bra brand – Natori. Fingers crossed that the line will be available at the Vancouver location. I bought a Natori bra from Nordstrom six years ago – it has kept it shape through a pregnancy and many, many wears and washings; plus, it’s ridiculously comfortable.)
NORDSTROM OPENING DAY BEAUTY BASH
Friday, Sept. 18, from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.
The event will include info on the latest tips and tricks from Nordstrom’s beauty experts during complimentary consultations and demonstrations. The first 2,500 customers to get their makeup done will receive an exclusive Nordstrom Beauty Bash tote (one per customer while supplies last). While celebrating all things beauty, the CBCF table will be there for those who want to do something truly beautiful and sign up for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure. The event will also have food truck eats, a photo booth, and live music.
The sneak peek includes a charity component as Nordstrom is partnering with the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation – BC/Yukon Region (CBCF) to raise funds and awareness for the cause during the events. Nordstrom will open its third Canadian location in the heart of downtown Vancouver at Pacific Centre on Sept. 18 at 9:30 a.m.
