It’s official! Hermès of Paris is heading to one of the hottest neighborhoods in Brooklyn, NY- Williamsburg. According to WWD, the luxury purveyor signed leases for two spaces in the NYC borough, one for a two-year pop-up and the other for a flagship location. The pop-up is expected to open in 2023 (six months from now) with the boutique destined for 2026.

Lest you wonder ‘why Brooklyn’ and ‘Williamsburg’, just recently the Wall Street Journal reported that Williamsburg has become a ‘shopping Mecca’ due part to remote work. Whether accurate or not, there’s no doubt Brooklyn has become a favored place for New Yorkers old and new to live, gather, and shop.

Establishment of a home base in Brooklyn is yet another example of Hermès heading to where its customers are. No longer restricted to major international cities, the brand has opened or is opening stores in small cities like Austin, Texas and Nashville, Tennessee as well as suburbs like those surrounding Detroit, Michigan.
