EXHIBIT 18.1

June 4, 2015

DSW Inc.
810 DSW Drive
Columbus, Ohio

Dear Sirs/Madams:

At your request, we have read the description included in your Quarterly Report on Form 10−Q to the Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended May 2, 2015, of the facts relating to the change in classification of interest and penalties from income taxes from interest income (expense) and operating expenses, respectively, to the income tax provision. We believe, on the basis of the facts so set forth and other information furnished to us by appropriate officials of the Company, that the accounting change described in your Form 10−Q is to an alternative accounting principle that is preferable under the circumstances.

We have not audited any consolidated financial statements of DSW Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries as of any date or for any period subsequent to January 31, 2015. Therefore, we are unable to express, and we do not express, an opinion on the facts set forth in the above mentioned Form 10−Q, on the related information furnished to us by officials of the Company, or on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of DSW Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries as of any date or for any period subsequent to January 31, 2015.

Yours truly,

/s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP
Columbus, Ohio
