Good Sport
Bandier is bringing its A-game to Dallas. Last fall, the multi-brand luxury activewear retailer opened its first brick-and-mortar store outside of New York in Highland Park Village. According to founder Jennifer Bandier, the new neighborhood was a natural fit. “I visited Dallas for the first time last December and instantly fell in love with the city. It’s a beautiful place with great energy,” she says. Shoppers will be in good company: The store, known as the “Barneys of activewear,” counts Lena Dunham and Liv Tyler among its star clients. In addition to its well-edited selection of workout wear and accessories from emerging and established brands around the world, the 1,800-square-foot space will house a Beats by Dre listening station and lounge, as well as host wellness events, trunk shows, fitness classes and more.

It’s in the Bag
