Ann Taylor (New York) plans to open its redesigned store in Fashion Valley next month, marking the brand’s first new concept store in San Diego, reports The San Diego Union-Tribune.

The design, created in partnership with design firm S. Russell Groves (New York), includes whitewashed maple hardwood floors, crystal chandeliers, modern tufted furniture, a proprietary lighting system in the fitting rooms with backlit mirrors and a new layout, which divides items into sections, including a career chic shop, a petites shop and an accessories shop.

Ann Taylor began rolling out the new concept in fall 2010 in major cities across the country.
