Top Banana At South Coast Plaza
The new Banana Republic at South Coast Plaza could very well be the best Banana Republic store in the world! It’s a new concept that opens Thursday for men and women and spans two floors: top level for casual wear and sales and the lower level for formal wear, with an ingenious design so that as you enter the store, you’ll find the best finds for each season.
Collections are situated in intimate boutiques—-almost idealized walk-in closets—that address all wardrobe needs for work and weekend, and Banana Republics signature lines: Heritage, a luxe line with some eco-friendly organic cotton, soy silk, and bamboo; and Monogram, its limited edition sophisticated fashions, European fabrics and attention to detail. There’s also an accessories destination with convertible handbags, jewelry, eyewear and shoes.
You can see for yourself what all of the excitement is about at the celebration of its new space Thursday from 5 to 8 p.m. The opening party will benefit Orange County Performing Arts Center. Save 25% off your purchase of $100 or more (30% off when you use your Banana Republic card). Enjoy complimentary cocktails, and a live DJ. Plus, be entered to win a $500 Banana Republic gift card. RSVP at rsvpsc@crossmarketingpr.com.
Concierge services are available to help shoppers with restaurant reservations, show tickets and entertainment recommendations. Open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday; 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sunday. 714.327.8400.
