BNKR set to open flagship in U.S.

BNKR, an Australian retailer, is planning to open its first flagship in the U.S. with no set opening date.

The set location will be at 901 S. Broadway St. in downtown Los Angeles. This will be the brand’s first brick and mortar store located inside the United States. The historic Blackstone building was home to a former department store where BNKR will now be taking place. Owners Mel and Dean Flintoft emerged the business in order to display the culture of Australian fashion. According to City Mag, the label plans to expand further to New York as well.

So far, BNKR has one flagship store on 160 Rundle Mall in Adelaide. The store was established last year in June. Bringing the retail dream to life in its hometown, the Australian fashion house strived to bring a physical showcase for its customers.

BNKR started in 2007 in Australia. Its label is known for affordable prices and contemporary, edgy styles. Labels that the company sells include Finders Keepers, C/MEO Collective, the Fifth, Keepsake, and more.
