Lee & Associates NYC announced that it represented NakedCashmere, a California-based luxury direct-to-consumer brand, in securing its newest location at 353 Bleecker St. in West Village, Manhattan. NakedCashmere signed a 10-year, 949-square-foot lease including both ground-floor and basement space. The lease was signed in May, and the store is expected to open this summer.

Mark Kapnick and Jordan Cohen of Lee & Associates NYC represented the tenant. The landlord, 215 West 10th Street LLC, was represented by Robert Cohen and Peter Whitenack of Newmark.

“Bleecker Street has long been recognized as one of New York City’s premier retail destinations. Beloved by both tourists and New York locals alike, this stretch of Bleecker Street offers a diverse mix of high-end shopping experiences, as NakedCashmere will join a strong lineup of upscale brands on this block, including Doen, Daniella Shevel and Reiss.” said Mark Kapnick, executive vice president and principal at Lee & Associates NYC. “It was a pleasure working with the NakedCashmere team on this deal, and we look forward to seeing how they bring the space to life this summer.”

NakedCashmere is a luxury direct-to-consumer brand built on producing and designing the finest quality and environmentally conscious cashmere. Since its launch in 2009, the brand has locations in Aspen, Colo., and Santa Monica, Calif.
