    This is interesting that Thomas Pink and Emporio Armani Are finally entering the Atlanta Market. I wonder if they are waiting on success from the airport locations to open full line stores at Lenox/Phipps?

    @Drew, isn’t Armani already at Phipps? Or am I thinking of another store that sells $100 t-shirts?

  6. Mike February 21, 2012 at 5:01 pm #

    Giorgio Armani is at Phipps… Emporio Armani is slightly cheaper and Armani Exchange (which is now at Lenox and Mall of Georgia) is the cheapest.

    @ Chris – you may or may not be thinking of another label, that sells $100 t-shirts. I know it’s stories above most of the Atlantan Male’s heads, but there are other retailers out there besides the Polo Outlet and Brooks Brothers.

    @Chris, Right now all phipps has is Giorgio Aramani Boutique. So true on the $100 T-shirts. I thought at one point there was talk about all Emporio Armani Stores integrating with the Giorgio Armani stores, but i haven’t visited the Phipps store it find out.

    Kielhs or Kiehl’s?

    hi rb, you are correct. the spelling in the article was incorrect – we copied and pasted “kielhs” from the permit. the spelling has been updated in the post.

    thanks!

    @Chris… Giorgio Armani is at Phipps. Armani Exchange is at Lenox. Empirio Armani is of course an Armani brand, but not the same.

    I used to work for Salvatore Ferragamo at the Atl Airport, (Delta concourse A), and business was/is amazing. No wonder these other labels and boutiques are slowly but surely coming to the World’s busiest airport.

    @Twinkmess… Most likely, they are referencing MAC cosmetics. MAC is already sold at the duty free shop, (they have a full counter), but business has always been so great, I can definitely see the use of a stand alone location.

    Kiehl’s has had a boutique in the airport for about 2 years on concourse B and things are great. A secondary locale would only add to the business.

    @Drew… Thomas Pink wouln’t just be entering the Atlanta market. The shirts and accessories are sold at Neiman’s, Saks, and also Nordstrom. And I do have a good reason to believe a PINK store will be opening soon!
