Ottawa, Canada – Nordstrom is set to unveil its first home fashions department in Canada when it opens its second store in the country here this week.

As reported by The Ottawa Citizen, the new Rideau Centre store – which measures 157,000-square-foot – opens March 6 and will include a high-end assortment of designer bedding, bath, rugs and other home furnishings and accents, many of them exclusive to Nordstrom.

Some of the lux linens in the offering will include the Lydia & Levtex Sicily bedding collection priced at $99 to $188 for queen size, and Stria towels in crisp gray-and-white stripes and made of 100% cotton for $16 to $34.

The home mix will be updated each season.

Nordstrom entered the Canadian market in September with a new location in Calgary at the Chinook Centre. Four other new sites are in the queue – Vancouver this fall, two in Toronto in fall 2016, and another in Toronto in 2017.

In the U.S., Nordstrom’s At Home departments are included in 58 of its 117 stores.
