Saks Fifth Avenue (New York) has renovated its Chicago men’s store and moved it back across Michigan Avenue as part of the main flagship store there.

According to The Chicago Tribune, the men’s shop, rebranded as The Fifth Avenue Man, occupies two floors in the store and has its own express elevators.

The luxury retailer, now part of The Hudson Bay Co. Ltd. (Toronto), has also introduced a new restaurant and bar on the seventh floor, overlooking the avenue, called Sophie’s at Saks Fifth Avenue. It is named after Sophie Gimbel, Saks’ fashion designer for its Salon Moderne in the 1930s and 40s.
