Forever 21 opens Fifth Avenue flagship

New York -- Forever 21 opened a 36,000-sq.-ft. store on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue, joining such other fast-fashion retailers already in the neighborhood as Uniqlo, H&M and TopShop.



The four-level space houses all of retailer’s collections under one roof, including Forever 21 Men. The store is located in a building that formerly housed an H&M store, which closed in December when the retailer moved to a different location on Fifth and 48th Streets.



"We are very proud to continue our expansion and open our fifth store in New York City,” said Forever 21 VP of merchandising Linda Chang, the daughter of the chain's founders. “This new store will offer our customers a wide selection of on-trend merchandise at a great value in the heart of New York City."



Forever 21 operates more than 480 U.S. stores, including five in New York City.
