Here are three of the variations of Nordstrom gift cards.
HauteLook
HauteLook is a retail website that specializes in discount sales of high-end products for a given time.
HauteLook became a subsidiary of Nordstrom in May 2011 and converted it to members-only retail website offering time-limited sales events on top fashion and lifestyle brands.
Early this year, Nordstrom phased out HauteLook in order to restructure its business. The HauteLook services are now integrated into the Nordstrom Rack website.
Nordstrom Rack
It is the discount arm of the luxury Nordstrom brand. Nordstrom Rack retails high-end products at unbelievable discount rates. It also offer in-store alterations on clothings for a fee.
Nordstrom Rack operates in more than 350 stores and generates 1/5 of Nordstrom’s total sales.
Nordstrom Rack recently launched its website and mobile app (For iPhone and other Apple devices) that combines its services with HauteLook’s services allowing online shoppers to maximize discount deals.
Trunk Club
Trunk Club is an online platform that specializes in providing apparel styling services for a fee.
It does this by assigning a stylist to a customer who curates clothing ideas (called ‘trunk”) based on the customer’s data {height, weight, color preference, size, budget, etc.}. The styling fee is added to your purchase.
Trunk Club offers this service at its physical locations and “clubhouses”. However, in clubhouses, customers get free in-person consultations with a stylist.
Trunk Club started by providing this service to only men but soon extended its service to women in 2014, a year after being acquired by Nordstrom.
Trunk Club services are now available at Nordstrom stores.
