 Footwear retailer Stuart Weitzman will open a 1,500 square foot store at West Edmonton Mall before the 2013/2014 holiday season. Weitzman is the latest upscale tenant to open in the mall. It will be the 10th Stuart Weitzman store in Canada.

 The Stuart Weitzman store replaces footwear retailer SoftMoc on the second level of the mall's 'Phase III'. It will be located next to a new Tiffany & Co. (which we recently announced will open in the mall). West Edmonton Mall is also undergoing interior renovations that will see it become more upscale.

 For those unfamiliar, Stuart Weitzman is an upscale American shoe designer/retailer which sells at Canadian retailers including Holt Renfrew and Browns Shoes. It also has nine Canadian stores: Four in Toronto, two in Montreal, two in Vancouver, and one in Calgary. Store locations can be found here.
