Lululemon Athletica plans to open its first Indiana store at The Fashion Mall at Keystone. The chain, founded in 1998 in Vancouver, is moving into the mall’s eastern wing, taking over the former home of Brookstone, which is moving to a spot near the Apple Store. The Lululemon store is scheduled to open in about three months. The chain already operates a “showroom” shop with limited hours at 64th Street and Cornell Avenue in Broad Ripple; Lululemon uses the “showroom” concept shops to market the brand in communities that don’t yet have a full-line store. The chain has more than 120 locations worldwide.
