This has been an issue for at least 6 years for Macy's and other well known department stores. Great job, as always!!❤❤👏🏾👏🏾💃🏾💃🏾
We’ll see who comes out on top! I hope Macy’s is able to make a turnaround
I hated when they changed Marshall Fields to Macy on State street! My grandmother worked there, and they threw huge Christmas parties for their employees every year. The store let them bring their whole family, it would be all the cousins there! The large Christmas trees, pictures with Santa! Those were the days! Your shirt and lip color look nice!
It was such an iconic store! I hate that they changed it as well. Not the same feel…
The window displays were beautiful.
The death of Marshall Fields was terrible, the culture of that store was everything! 💜TFS
I know it was! I remember getting my green box of chocolates every holiday season!
Great video! I'm a white Mom from Southern IL. I love clothes & makeup, all girly stuff. We have a small Mall here, I have shopped Maurices in this Mall for 30yrs, love their Silver jeans, so approximately 1 hr away there's a big Mall that had a Dillard's that Had Lancome & Mac counters, loved it, but it closed, they still have Macy's there, love it but hear it's closing.. Malls is where me & my now grown kids would spend a Saturday shopping & looking eating, it was so much Fun, me & my daughter loved Express dress clothes! I rarely go to a Mall now, I mainly shop on line at Maurices, for Silver jeans & tops, Express for blazers dressy tops, & Sephora for makeup. I order Miz Mooz boots & sandles on line or from Qvc. My 8yr old Son I shop Walmart , or on line or JCPennys, or old Navy. Its so sad that lot of stores are closing, people losing jobs, & now shopping on line has become so easy, that people don't go out shopping like they used to do. Tfs❤❤
Store closings are definitely felt more in smaller markets. Hopefully, they’ll repurpose those spaces so that you and your family have somewhere to enjoy🤗
I love these retailer chats! I was definitely a Rich's girl and was saddened once they closed the doors.
I livvvvvvvved for Rich’s Lenox Square! Especially when I was getting that employee discount 💃🏾💃🏾
Artificial Intelligence is slowly but surely changing how consumers shop and also employment prospects in brick and mortar stores. It saddens me to see so many malls and department stores close down. I don’t understand the non competitive aspects either. There’s no real exclusivity like there used to be. I agree with you about Macy’s Backstage and last act. This was very interesting and informative. Love it!❤😊
Saddens me as well. I hope that these stores are able to recalibrate and get back on track
In Michigan Macy's took over Hudson's department store you are so right it was never the same 😢
Oh wow!
Dionne, I appreciate the content. I have never been a fan of Macy's when they took over Foley's, and that maybe due to the fact that they don't cater to a specific audience. Lately Macy's clothing have been cheaply made but still wanting quality clothing prices. When they took over Marshall Fields in Chicago, I was done. You are so correct. Their online store socks.
Thanks for your insight❤️
Here in CT we had GFOX which turned from a very very high end store changed to Macys. My father worked for GFOX for 40 years he was laid off when Macys took over. The stores are garbage the people working there are just have no world class customer service anymore.
Yeah, I’m longing for the good ole days
This was such an amazing and informative video. I thoroughly enjoyed it! I absolutely love this type of discussions. I hope you do more. 💜👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you so much! More to come❤️
Yes, I enjoyed this. I received a lot of information and appreciate it.
Glad it was helpful!
I truly enjoy this chat with you i learned something today .Thank Yyou sweetheart 💕
You’re very welcome!
In Georgia, we have Market by Macy's. The concept is a bit strange, but people seem to like it. It might be like a backstage.
Gotta check it out when I’m back in Atlanta🍑
I agree 💯. I love me some Dillard's.
Love those videos, we need fashion 😊education THANKS 😊
More to come!❤️
Omg! You bought back soooo many memories in this chat. I agree with you on the whole Burdines vibe it was everything. Macys just didn’t compare. Don’t laugh but my Mom still have her Burdines credit card 😂 and she love the reactions of the cashiers when she gives it to them. 163rd Street shopping center was a big deal do you remember Richard’s? Yes please bring more of this content. Thanks
I’m so mad I got rid of my Burdines card😭😭😭My friends and I LIVED at 163rd street mall! It was the SPOT!🌴🌴
I forgot to mention you were right Burdines was known as The Florida Store. I’m a lot older than you so back in my day 163rd street wasn’t enclosed as it is now as a mall and it was called the 163rd street shopping center and there was a Carousel out front and I think the rides were free. Thanks again for the Memories
Dionne, I'm not surprised. Macy's always was out of the Fashion Fair make up,💄or poorly stocked, not replenished like at the other make up lines for the WW. Even now, they cannot sell a good quality product like they had in the past. It's just not the same. They need to bring back the "Tawny souffle foundation". It used to sell like hotcakes!!
Oh wow! I remember Fashion Fair!
I live in Broward County. If they close Macy's at Broward Mall or Coral Sq I don't think I will drive to Aventura to go to Macy's. Thanks for your commentary. Very interesting 👌. One Love ❤️
Plantation is revamping that whole area, so I think you’ll be okay. I believe they’re turning the old Sears into something🤔
Macy used to be a beautiful experience in New York at my Macy's in Michigan they cut the plus size section more than half and the selection is terrible.❤
Wow! I don’t go to the smaller locations because they don’t carry a lot of plus either😔
Do you think they understand their customer(s) and how are they ascertaining their need(s)? They can’t be just guessing. 😂
I really don’t know…because the whole ‘Last Act’ clearance and ‘Backstage’ situation has me confused😭😭😭
P.S yoh have lived in some major cities! I didn't realized you worked in both atl and Chicago.
I grew up in New York, live in Atlanta with my own family which is home for years now but adore Chicago. lol. I visit Chicago at least 3 times a year and oddly I do shop in Chicago
Don’t forget London and Dallas😉Chicago has my heart❤️
@@DionneDean I literally get happy every time I land at midway. Going on September. I go solo at least once a year to do absolutely nothing but eat and rest for weekend (and shop). My 3 boys are so used to it it now (and hubby).
I grew up in Chicago and now reside in Atlanta.
I really love going to the mall touching clothing and trying on clothes you cannot do that online 😒
I agree. It's just not the same.
I agree…
You look so pretty in pink
Thank you!
I don’t know how Macy’s has gotten away with their website as long as they have. I can understand how Amazon is considered a competitor from the perspective of online orders and accessibility of a variety of products, which was part of what Macy’s claim.
Enjoying the conversation….
We used to have a Bergners when I was growing up in Illinois. I bought my prom dress from there. Sadly it closed. Macy's will be missed.
I don’t understand either. I hope they make major investments into their online infrastructure.
Is the Macy’s closing in your area😔
@@DionneDean Yes I remembered Bergners was replaced with Macys in Illinois. I believe these large departments stores are either bought out or change of name. Idk.
@@DionneDean lol I’m up the way from you, Orlando. I don’t believe the Macys @ the Florida mall is closing but I am unsure. I doubt it because it is so large, but Macys is expensive like the mall. Everything is expensive nowadays. I don’t department store shop regularly, like you, but when I do I go Out with a bang!
Hey girl
🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️
I'm not really shocked. Especially after the pandemic.
Besides a Ross, tjmaxx those standalone stores in a plaza, I literally never go to the mall to shop. It's just not appealing.
I only shop the flagship Macys where I know I’ll get the good-goods LOL
Macys has become so bad I'm a shopaholic and I can't even use my 25k limit credit card...It's crazy only place I might find something I like is in the basement dept. I got two pair of gucci loafers and a belt 200.00 each. Recently I got a Valentino Garavani for 900 when bag was across street at saks for 3900. 😮. I will use my macys Amex at Dillard's
Dillards is giving Macy’s a run for their money
