About Bloomingdale's & Its Saving Tips
Bloomingdale's started back in 1872 when brothers Lyman and Joseph Bloomingdale opened a store in New York City. Unlike other stores at the time, they sold a variety of clothes for both men and women, quickly making their store a one-stop shop for fashionable attire. Over the years, Bloomingdale's has become famous for its large, beautiful flagship store on 59th Street in New York, which opened in 1886 and has grown to occupy an entire city block. This store is known for its striking Art Deco design.
Bloomingdale's has always been more than just a department store. It’s been a part of American pop culture, appearing in numerous movies and TV shows, including the popular '90s sitcom "Friends." The store is also known for its innovative practices like the “Big Brown Bag” launched in 1973, a symbol of sustainability and style that helped popularize reusable shopping bags.
In 2010, Bloomingdale's went international by opening its first store outside the U.S. in Dubai, located in the prestigious Dubai Mall. This marked the beginning of its global expansion, which continued with a store in Kuwait in 2017. Both locations offer a wide range of fashion, beauty products, and exceptional services like personal shopping and beauty treatments.
Most recently, in 2020, Bloomingdale's expanded its digital presence by launching bilingual e-commerce platforms in the UAE, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia, along with mobile apps for iOS and Android. These platforms offer convenient features like same-day delivery in the UAE and express shipping to other regions, making it easier for customers around the world to access Bloomingdale's vast selection of products and services.
