Houston Loses Top Luxe Retailer
Luxury specialty store Mix: Modern Classics in Houston shut its doors last month because its owner decided to relocate to Manhattan. The closing affects a number of high-end shoppers who used to count on the shop to locate pieces by designers such as Comme des Garçons and Alexander McQueen.
Mix owner Evelyn Gorman told WWD that business had been challenging in recent months and the strength of the euro made the price of European goods prohibitive.
Blacks is curious to see if another retailer steps in to fill Mix’s shoes and serve Houston’s luxury customers.
