&lt;p&gt;The giant retailer has partnered with the department store Lord &amp; Taylor to “create a premium fashion destination on Walmart.com,” Denise Incandela, head of fashion for Walmart’s US e-commerce business, said in an announcement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Planned to launch in spring 2018, a dedicated Lord &amp; Taylor store on Walmart’s website and app will give Walmart’s online shoppers access to labels sold at Lord &amp; Taylor. It’s not clear at this point whether that will include all items Lord &amp; Taylor currently carries, which include Vera Wang gowns, Kate Spade coats, Polo Ralph Lauren sweaters, Badgley Mishka dresses, and other pricey pieces. We have reached out to Lord &amp; Taylor for comment and will update this story with any reply.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But Walmart suggested those are the sorts of items its shoppers want. “We see customers on our site searching for higher-end items, and we are expanding our business online to focus on adding specialized and premium shopping experiences, starting with fashion,” Incandela explained in the announcement. It would certainly be a departure from the cheap clothes that currently fill Walmart stores.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Walmart has been gunning to turn itself into an online fashion powerhouse as part of a so-far-successful effort to boost its e-commerce business. It’s trying to stay competitive against Amazon, which has been gobbling up US e-commerce, including clothing retail.&lt;br /&gt;In the last year, Walmart has acquired online footwear seller ShoeBuy; outdoor brand Moosejaw; the fun, inclusive clothing retailer ModCloth, which has a loyal following of millennial women; and menswear brand Bonobos, which has a loyal following of millennial guys.&lt;br /&gt;The Lord &amp; Taylor deal will expand Walmart’s fashion business still further, though selling high-end clothes isn’t easy for a retailer known for cheap and less rarefied products, as Amazon has demonstrated. Like Amazon, Walmart already sells a number of designer labels on its site through its marketplace, which lets third-party sellers reach Walmart’s online audience.&lt;/p&gt;</html><type>rich</type></oembed>
