“We hope this becomes part of the daily life of this community and that the pride we put into it shows through for Chicago and Rosemont,” said Arthur Weiner, chairman of Fashion Outlets’ developer AWE Talisman, following a morning ribbon cutting in front of crowds of eager shoppers.

Court jesters in colorful costumes entertained in the aisles with ribbons and other props while children lined up to have their faces painted or receive a piece of balloon artwork.

Though it bills itself as an outlet mall, Fashion Outlets, located at River Road and Balmoral Avenue, is actually a mixture of more than 150 outlets, factory stores and brand-name retailers, in addition to a food court and the sit-down Villagio and Prasino restaurants. Stores range from high-end names like Last Call by Neiman Marcus, Barney’s New York Outlet,Find the latest collection of Michael Kors Wallets at hotmkbags.

More than six years in the making, Fashion Outlets also holds the distinction of being the “first two-level, fully enclosed outlet shopping center in the world,” according to Weiner.

Lines began forming outside several stores well before they opened, as shoppers hoped to be among the first to score a deal.

“Nike always pulls out crazy stuff the day it opens,” Ballado explained of their eagerness to get inside.

A line also formed outside the Gucci store, where women eyed a selection of must-have handbags in the display window.

One of them, Yvonne Asque of South Holland, was among a group of select shoppers to take part in an early-bird preview of some stores on July 30 — but that didn’t stop her from returning on opening day and planning to come back yet again on Saturday.

“I went to Bloomingdale’s and Neiman Marcus. I think I spent too much already, but I saved a little bit for today,” she said, laughing. “It’s beautiful. We needed this. We don’t have to go to Gurnee. We don’t have to go to Aurora.”

Gov. Quinn, making an appearance just prior to signing a bill legalizing medical marijuana in Illinois, touted the number of jobs Fashion Outlets has generated (estimated at 2,000), and a feature that allows passengers headed to O’Hare to check in and pick up their boarding passes inside the mall before taking a shuttle to the airport.

Fashion Outlets also sports large, vividly painted murals and other art installations as part of the Arts Initiative, an endeavor that places interactive visual art in public places.
