Dressbarn Plans to Close All 660 Retail Stores
Not another store?!
Dressbarn just announced that they’re planning to close ALL 660 of their retail stores as part of a wind-down process. Ascena Retail Group Inc., the owner of Dressbarn and other clothing retailers such as Ann Taylor and Lane Bryant, says it wants to focus on its more profitable brands. Here’s what they posted on the Dressbarn website:
“It has been our pleasure to serve you, making it all the more difficult to let you know that the decision has been made to begin winding down the Dressbarn business. This means that we will eventually be closing all of our stores. Dressbarn isn’t going away just yet, however. All Dressbarn stores are open, and our sales associates are serving customers as usual.”
According to this Ascena press release, plans for closing individual Dressbarn locations, including information about store closing sales, will be shared during the wind-down process.
While Dressbarn has not mentioned exactly when they will be closing their doors for good, they encouraged customers to “shop with us and stock up before we close our doors.” For now, you can still earn loyalty rewards, use your Dressbarn credit card, redeem gift cards, make returns, get refunds, and shop online as usual.
