May 24—Columbia Center mall is celebrating the opening of multiple new stores just as more shoppers are venturing out from their COVID pandemic cocoons.
A first for Eastern Washington, an Aerie clothing store has opened inside the mall.
The sister store to American Eagle is a few doors down from AE in the JC Penney's wing. It features intimates, apparel, active wear and swimwear.
The Aerie brand tries to appeal to a wide demographic and promotes body authenticity and positive body image with social media movement #AerieREAL that shows real women without photo touchups.
