TMRW TGTHR is a Nordstrom pop-up shop that allows small brands committed to sustainable and socially-conscious goods to reach a bigger audience.
The luxury retailer is including over 10 brands in this initiative, all of which are either passionate about being community-focused, eco-friendly, upcycled or artisanal. The store exists in both an online and in-person location. Featured brands include Public Supply, FEED, Krochet Kids, VisuaLingual, Bambu, Salvage Maria, Ecoalf, Brother Vellies, Conway Electric, Made Solid, Morihata and Black + Blum.
Curated by Nordstrom's Director for Creative Projects Olivia Kim, TMRW TGTHR will be open from September 12 to October 12, 2014. In a video promoting the project, she describes her excitement for the Nordstrom pop-up to become a gallery for brands to meet buyers interested in their work.
