Fashion Show Mall is a shopping mall located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. The mall hosts weekend fashion shows on a retractable runway within the mall's central atrium, hence the name.[2]

History

Fashion Show Mall opened on February 14, 1981,[3] anchored by Diamond's, Bullock's, Goldwaters, Neiman Marcus, and Saks Fifth Avenue. Diamond's was converted to a Dillard's store in 1986, Goldwaters became a May Company store in 1989 and then a Robinsons-May in 1993, while Bullock's was converted to a Macy's in 1996.[4]

An expansion of the mall's west portion was opened in November 2002, followed by the opening of a new east wing and outdoor plaza in October 2003. Also added in 2003 was a new food court, located on a third floor and overlooking the Las Vegas Strip. Owner The Rouse Company spent $1 billion to renovate the mall.[5] 200,000 square feet of retail space was built, extending out of the backside of the mall between Robinsons-May and Macy's. Dillard's and Saks Fifth Avenue moved to new, larger locations in this new wing, alongside a Bloomingdale's Home store and Nordstrom. Neiman Marcus, Macy's, and Robinsons-May expanded their stores; and the former Saks Fifth Avenue was razed and replaced by several restaurants, the food court, and a Strip-facing plaza called "The Cloud".[6]

The former Dillard's store, previously meant to house Lord & Taylor, sat empty until Forever 21 moved into the building in 2010.[7]

The Rouse Company was purchased by General Growth Properties in 2004.[8]

On September 9, 2006, following Federated's purchase of May Department Stores, Robinsons-May was converted to a second Macy's store. The store was shuttered in 2008 and remained empty until 2013, when it was converted into a wing of shops and a separate Macy's Men store.[9]

In January 2013, Macy's announced it would close the Bloomingdale's Home store.[10][11] That building remained empty until 2015, when Dick's Sporting Goods announced it would take over the building.[12]

In 2014, the mall was used to film the interior shots of the fictitious West Orange Pavilion Mall for the opening sequence of Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.

In April 2018, the mall's Topshop store closed as part of the chain closing all of its US stores due to Chapter 15 bankruptcy.
