Saks Unveils Chic, Curated 'Concept Shop' Amid NYFW Buzz

The Sectional got a first peek at Saks’ “creative clubhouse,” which is open through October.


Fashion’s most notable names have descended on New York City. 

And as the city buzzes with chatter around New York Fashion Week, Saks Fifth Avenue debuted its immersive “concept shop.” The fashion set, media and more celebrated the launch inside its flagship location during an exclusive event Tuesday night—and The Sectional was among the crowd.

The bright, airy space is meant to serve as something of a “creative clubhouse” for lovers of fashion, art and culture. The concept comes as part of Saks’ fall 2026 “Let’s Go” campaign.

"Let's Go! celebrates the unique role Saks Fifth Avenue plays in connecting our customers to the energy, creativity, and discovery that makes luxury fashion so compelling," said Cheryl Han, chief marketing and digital officer for Exemplar Luxury Group. 

She continued: "Our New York City Flagship has long been a destination where culture and commerce come together, and this campaign extends that influence across our stores and digital channels nationwide."

In the "concept shop,” visitors can expect to find a selection of seasonal products curated by Bruce Peak, men’s fashion director for Saks, and Chloe King, women’s fashion director for Saks.

The assortment features handbags, homeware, shoes and giftables from brands including Ami Paris, Burberry, Olympia Le-Tan, Miu Miu, Hermès and more. 

The space also includes a gallery exhibit entitled “Beautiful People” by photographer Nadine Ijewere and a newsstand from Library180 featuring collectible magazines published in the 1990s. Both are eye-catching in the best way.

And, through October 6, the space will be open during store hours and will offer special activations each weekend, including DJ sets, a pop-up coffee cart, and more.
