Still Coming Soon: DTLA's Zara Delayed, Could Open This Week

After much waiting, thumb-twiddling and even more waiting, Zara at FIGat7th is...still not open. We made a beeline for Downtown shopping center to welcome the Spanish fast fashion retailer during their expected grand opening today, only to be greeted with the still-shut doors above.

Staff tells us that the DTLA opening has been delayed due to unforeseen issues with permits; though a final date has yet to be confirmed, we're told the brand is aiming to open by the end of this week. Let's hope this isn't just another bluff—keep your eyes posted here for more deets as they come.
