Hippy-chic lifestyle label Free People is getting bigger in Chicago this fall as it establishes a brick-and-mortar presence on Southport and now on Michigan Avenue in the Water Tower. We just learned that the brand leased out quite a big space on the 3rd floor in Water Tower to showcase women’s apparel and accessories. This location will also sell some housewares that are selected from 1,500 specialty boutiques and department stores across the globe. The store is known nationwide for exclusive products as well as its vintage jeans, tees and shoes.
