Hanna Andersson, Sephora coming to Leawood

Hanna Andersson is entering the area market with a new Town Center Plaza store.

The company, which was founded in 1983, is known for “comfortable, high-quality clothing for children and babies.” It plans a December opening in a 1,766-square-foot space at 4832 W. 119th St., on the south side near Barnes & Noble. The Children’s Place formerly occupied the space.

In an update on a previous story, Town Center Plaza has confirmed that Sephora, a leading chain of perfume and cosmetics stores, is taking a 5,538-square-foot spot at 5056 W. 119th St., on the center’s south side next to Victoria’s Secret, for an early 2015 opening. Coldwater Creek formerly occupied the space.

Officials with Hanna Andersson and Sephora could not be reached for comment.

Town Center Plaza, at the northwest corner of 119th Street and Roe Avenue in Leawood, has more than 60 stores and restaurants.
