MURRAY HILL—It's a brand new day inside Dover Street Market. On January 12th, the department store closed to swap out its winter merchandise and reopened on January 16th with the new spring offering on all seven floors — it took 65 staff members, plus some brand representatives from Gucci, Loewe, and Rick Owens, to get the job done. "We like to do it all in one go," Adrian Joffe, Comme des Garcons CEO and president told the New York Times. "If we didn't, we'd be closing off areas all the time. It's worth it for the excitement." Click on the link above to check out the changes
