Russell and Bromley Stores Are Closing—Here’s What You Need to Know
Final Fire Sale at Fraser Plus
The Russell and Bromley shop at Fraser Plus is slashing prices even more to clear out all stock before it shuts for good. If you’ve been waiting for a deal on their shoes or handbags, this is your last chance to score big.
Why Are All These Stores Closing?
Next, another popular fashion chain, bought Russell and Bromley for £2.5 million to save it from going under. But after the deal, Next decided to keep only three stores open. That means every other location—including the one at Fraser Plus—has just 14 weeks left before closing forever.
Only These Three Stores Will Survive
Good news if you’re near Chelsea, Mayfair, or the Bluewater Shopping Centre—those Russell and Bromley shops will stay open. Everyone else? You’ll have to say goodbye to your local store.
Jobs Are in Jeopardy
This isn’t just about shopping—real people are losing their livelihoods. Russell and Bromley has 36 stores across the UK and Ireland, employing around 440 people. Layoffs have already started, and 320 store workers are still at risk. That’s hundreds of families facing uncertainty.
A Fashion Staple Since 1880
Russell and Bromley isn’t just any brand—it’s a legend. Founded in 1880, it’s been a favorite of style stars like the Princess of Wales, Theresa May, Katie Holmes, and Billie Piper. For over a century, their shoes and bags have been a symbol of classic British fashion.
What Should You Do Now?
Head to the sales ASAP if you want anything from Russell and Bromley. But beyond that, it’s a wake-up call: even iconic brands
