BANDIER, the first luxury multi-brand fashion & fitness focused boutique has opened on Main Street Southampton. Owner and longtime Hamptonite Jennifer Bandier curates a meticulous collection of the most fashion forward luxury fitness designers in the world, including: Nike, Adidas by Stella McCartney, Norma Kamali, Under Armour, Lucas Hugh, Michi, Live The Process, and Beyond Yoga.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Signature BANDIER elements include a Bra Bar (featuring Anita and Moving Comfort undergarments) and a mirrored Affirmation Wall with inspirational quotes — some penned by BANDIER shoppers.  Jennifer shares, “The inspiration for BANDIER took shape after I broke my foot and was put in a cast up to my knee. I was forced to wear fitness clothing 24 hours a day, and quickly realized that the fitness I owned was unfashionable and uninspiring.”  And so the seed was planted to curate her own fitness wardrobe out of incredible brands from around the globe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The gorgeous new 1,150 sq. ft. retail space on Southampton’s Main Street—designed by RPG—is slick and modern, yet also luxurious and approachable, mimicking the clothing itself. Industrial style meets inviting, sumptuous materials in elements from the poured
concrete flooring and industrial steel wall fixtures to smoky beveled mirror tabletops,
black and white lacquered mannequins and plush custom furnishings in soft tones and
sumptuous fabrics.

 

 

 

 

Guided by BANDIER’s motto, “Strong is the New Sexy,” the Design & Build team at RPG translated fashion, fitness and music aesthetically, taking into account the specific luxurious environment desired but also the brand identity. “This beautiful, modern design fits with the sophistication of Southampton,” explains Bruce Teitelbaum, CEO of RPG, “while positioning itself easily for expansion into other markets.”
