Coming Soon to the Former Village Theatre: Ralph Lauren

Ralph Lauren has closed its longtime space in Highland Park Village next to Peter Millar and is expected to reopen in the former Village Theatre space. The brand is also opening a home showroom in the Knox District area at 4525 Cole Ave. The new Ralph Lauren location and the home showroom are both expected to open March 3. 

Ralph Lauren closed at its previous location, where it’d been since 1978, on Feb. 15. The Village Theatre has been closed since March 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic arrived in Dallas.

Ralph Lauren’s new, 9,605-square-foot location in Highland Park Village will carry the brand’s complete collection for men and women, Highland Park Village chief marketing officer Victoria Snee said. The home showroom’s Cole Avenue space, in the same building as Trader Joe’s, Sur La Table, and Paper Source, is about 2,202 square feet.

In another move in Highland Park Village, Snee said luxury fashion house Moncler, known for outerwear, will open its first location in Dallas next to Dior in Highland Park Village March 10.

One of her stories won first place in its category in the Oklahoma Press Association’s Better Newspaper Contest in 2018. She’s a fan of puns and community journalism, not necessarily in that order.

    Who/which retailer moves into the Ralph Lauren spot? That’s primo space in its own right. Thanks, John

      I’ve asked and they haven’t shared who’s moving into that spot yet. We’ll keep checking on it. Thanks!

    I loved the look of the previous location on the corner with the navy blue awnings and beautiful architecture. It was “so Ralph Lauren”. The new location looks as appealing as a CVS.

    The closing of the Highland Park Village Theatre saddens me deeply. I will always have fond memories of working there through the summers of ‘79 and ‘80.

    Has the very high-end purple line of RL and the complimenting staff. It fits right in for the Village, but the space move is a miss. Bring back the theatre!!! Bottom floor and escalators simply don’t work for this retailer. I MISS GOING TO A MOVIE THERE!!
