Nordstrom today launched its new concept, SPACE, an in-boutique featuring emerging and advanced designers curated by its Director of Creative Projects, Olivia Kim.

 
The boutique, which will be found inside the Nordstrom Collectors department alongside other designer collections, will carry seasonal offerings of apparel, shoes, handbags and accessories from designers Simone Rocha, Marques'Almeida, Jacquemus, Isa Arfen, Anthony Vaccarello, Shrimps, Tricot Comme des Garçons, Noir Kei Ninomiya, Creatures of the Wind, Vetements, Faustine Steinmetz, Mociun, Sophie Bille Brahe, among others.
 
"Conceptually SPACE is very boutique-like, offering not just clothing or shoes but a full wardrobe in one small environment," said Kim. "I want this to be a place of inspiration and education. A lot of these pieces are new and directional, but I want it to always feel inclusive. SPACE is a part of the Nordstrom ethos of offering the best of what's out there."

 
SPACE will also have an online boutique that will offer editorials and content in a unique way for both desktop and mobile. The first SPACE in-boutiques will be in Downtown Seattle, San Francisco Centre, Chicago and at the Nordstrom Pacific Centre in Vancouver, Canada that will open on September 18, 2015.
