Bloomingdale's
Since 1872 Bloomingdale's has been setting trends in fashion retailing
Every New York fashionista knows the "4 B's Designer Shopping": Bloomie's, Bergdorf's, Bendel's and Barneys. Since 1872, when Benjamin Bloomingdale's sons started selling ladies hoop skirts on the Lower East Side, Bloomingdale's has been a shopping mecca and a trendsetter in the retail industry.
In 1886, the department store moved to its current home on Lexington Avenue and the Bloomingdale brothers developed the much loved pastime of window shopping by being the first store to create a theatrical mise-en-scene featuring a few select products in the plate glass display windows. Bloomingdale's has continued to capitalize on its relationship with the affluent, young and trendy through theatrical advertising campaigns billing Bloomie's a store that had to be experienced, a place to see and be seen.
Personal shoppers and interior designers are available by appointment to help you fill your iconic Big Brown Bag to the brim with the latest in fashions for you and your home. On the first floor balcony, Bloomingdale's Visitor Service offers translators, coat and package check services, hotel package delivery (minimum purchase $250) and a full concierge service. International visitors are eligible to receive free signature gift when they spend $200 or more by presenting a same day receipt to the Visitor Services desk.

Checked out the fragrance area at Bloomingdale's. Great experience, amazing customer service, great variety. Prices are a bit high compared to online fragrance sites, but the experience is worth it, you get to try out tons of samples.

Fast shipped, protectively packaged. Bloomingdale's even went the added touch of class by including a beautiful Maxim's gift bag to put the Maxim's Marc of Champagne chocolate truffles in. Always world-class to treat every customer your very best! I highly recommend Bloomingdale's for your shopping and these delicious Maxim's Marc of Champagne chocolate truffles!

Fun to walk around and shop all the floors here and they let dogs in! Do be mindful that men’s bathrooms are only on a couple of floors and the elevators can take a while to get there.

I want to give a big thank you to Marija and her team in the home department at Bloomingdale's flagship store in NYC. When I was planning my wedding two years ago, I wanted something special for my bridesmaids to wear while getting ready. I had a few ideas, but I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted. Marija helped me design and choose beautiful white Matouk robes with lovely embroidery. I thought about black embroidery, but she suggested red. I'm so happy she did because I couldn’t be happier with the result. It made the whole experience even more memorable and fun. She also helped me pick out pajamas and arranged embroidery for some of my close family members. Marija and her team truly went above and beyond to help me and make sure everything was perfect. Bloomingdale’s home department is fantastic, and if you’re a bride in NYC, I highly recommend stopping by. There are so many great options and a wonderful team to help you.

Such an amazing experience every time, and trust me when I say I’m here more than I am in my own home. My favorite stylist is ❤️Kenne k.❤️ from the Jo Malone London department. Baby when I tell you Kenne knows cologne and perfume he knows his stuff. I drive pass 2 malls and pay tolls just to get to this Bloomingdale’s. The aura, the energy. Just amazing 🤩 please give him a raise and employer of the forever. 😊I was just at Bloomingdale’s in Westchester for a YSL purchase and the service was bad I left a review. Good service is hard to find. Thanks Kenne. See you soon.
