DALLAS — American Girl will open in its new location in the Shops at Park Lane next month after more than 16 years in the Dallas market.
The brand’s Galleria Dallas store will close Feb. 20, according to the brand’s website. The new 14,720-square-foot, two-level store in the Shops at Park Lane next to Nordstrom Rack will open March 2.
It will include the full assortment of American Girl’s dolls and accessories, along with the brand’s doll-and-girl fashions and books.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Dallas fans to our newly imagined experiential store,” says Jamie Cygielman, global SVP and general manager of American Girl. “Centrally located at The Shops at Park Lane, American Girl Dallas features an all-new look and feel that honors our heritage and offers exciting experiences and new ways to celebrate that will make any visit a special Day to Remember. Whether girls and their families are dining in the charming cafe or getting made-to-match looks in the Dolled Up Salon, American Girl Dallas promises to be the place to create unforgettable memories together.”
It will also feature a new salon in which, for the first time in Dallas, girls can join their favorite American Girl dolls in getting a matching hairstyle or a mini manicure, plus ear-piercing. Salon reservations can be made in advance.
Visitors can also enjoy the American Girl Cafe, with seatings for brunch, lunch, and teatime. The new cafe features three private party rooms to celebrate birthdays and other occasions, plus a new Berry Bar that offers sweet treats to go.
To celebrate the store’s opening, American Girl is supporting Save the Children's Education and Literacy Programs with a donation of nearly $40,000 in retail value of American Girl books1 to the nonprofit’s partner schools in Texas.
