Our Shopping Expert Says:
There is only one word to describe Westfield Old Orchard—WOW! The collection of stores at this mall is so impressive that it is easily one of Illinois' greatest malls—plus, the spectacular open air mall experience can't be beat! There are over 150 upscale, designer stores with top-of-the-line department store anchors Bloomingdales, Macy's, and Lord & Taylor. What a collection! You can also catch a movie at AMC Garden Cinemas at two locations in the mall—one near Macy's and one near Maggiano's.
Fashion is obviously top notch here and you'll find yourself trying on lots of fine clothes at Armani Exchange, Abercrombie & Fitch, Banana Republic BCBG, Victoria's Secret, Guess, Lacoste, Kenneth Cole and more! There are also some fantastic shoe stores here like Via Spiga, Steve Madden, Aldo, Nine West and Nike. Just for the kids, there are great stores too, like Janie & Jack, Gymboree, Limited Too and The Children's Place. (Visit Gymboree with your child for a fun, interactive class filled with msuci, activity, and so much more!) Great gifts can be found at exclusive stores like Burberry, Brookstone, Coach, Swarovski Crystal, Fossil, Bath & Body Works and more. Take some time off from shopping and give yourself the royal treatment at Mario Tricoci Hair Salon & Day Spa and Bliss Spa—you'll leave feeling relaxed and ready for more shopping! Update your makeup and skin care collection, too, at L'Occitane, MAC, Aveda, Origins and Sephora. Don't think this mall is lacking on home furnishings—you'll go home with something for your home too from Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, Sharper Image and Williams-Sonoma.
There's no doubt that by now you are hungry so head over to one of the 20 eateries here. You can choose to sit down at one of Westfield Old Orchard's fantastic restaurants, including California Pizza Kitchen, Cajun Big Easy, The Cheesecake Factory, Johnny Rockets, Great Steak and Potato, The Bagel Restaurant & Deli. For dessert try a delicious trifle at Godiva Chocolatier.
