Earlier in the week, Nordstrom celebrated its opening with a gala party to benefit the Dallas Museum of Art, Junior League of Dallas, and The Links, Incorporated. Over 2,000 guests enjoyed hors d'oeuvres, live entertainment, a runway fashion show and the opportunity to do some "sneak preview" shopping. The fashionable fete raised $200,000.
