Dressbarn going out of business

What is that? Don’t fraus go to Ross lol

Nooooo.

They sell caftans, you know.

Sure let’s make fun of the fact that 1,000s of people will be out of work.

Blouse Barn suffered the same fate but I think that's because David screwed up all the displays.

We're not making fun of people losing their jobs. We're making fun of Dress Barn.

What self-respecting woman would want to shop at a place called Dress Barn?

We're still around and ready to welcome more members into the fold.

Mother is INCONSOLABLE.

It gets added to the list of the fallen along with Sears / K-mart and Charlotte Ruuse.

What other stores have closed?

I'm not talking about massive closings cuz that would be : Macy's , J. Crew , Gap, and Lowes. I'm sure there are others , but those are the ones no one needs to google. People would have to google Fred's Pharmacy if you don't live in the South.

Well, all the plus-sized trans will be snapping up bargains to offset the cost of their Meds.

R7 I know a professor who used to love DressBarn and Big Lots. Lol.

Stand aside!

There'll be a frau frenzy come Black Friday.

50% off this flattering (but modest) blue number! She could've had it for $15.95!

Terrible news.

Thousands unemployed and more empty storefronts.

Devastating.

Yet Ross, Marshals and Kyle Richards fav TJ Maxxxx is still going gang busters.

Is Hefty Hideaway still in business?

R10 While a shadow of their former selves, Sears/Kmart are still around.

I never understood that crazy name. Dress Barn??

R19 My mother and grandmother, who are not wealthy, refuse to shop at a store with "barn" in its name. A barn is where you keep cows, horses, or hay, not lady's clothing.

Rumor has it that Chrissy Metz has bought up all of their old locations and will be using them for storage under the name "Snack Barn."

R20, same here!

WHERE will the San Diego Tappy Awards be held??

Someone get R21 her own sitcom. She is a pisser!

"WTF???!!!" {retires to her bed, using a Chico's scarf to dry her tears}

My mom loves Chico's and Coldstone Creek!

Now where do ya go for a moo-moo?

To Victotia's Secrets.

I was always a Fashion Bug kinda gal myself.

Take a good look at the pic of the Pences in R9's post.

He looks like someone's prissy, old maiden aunt, she looks like Buddy Hackett in drag.

Well that's what happens when cheaply made China apparel floods the markets, nes' pas?

OMG, I AM CRYING AS I TYPE THIS!

LOL you queens is bad

When I couldn’t tell the world I wanted to transition, I went to Dressbarn

Fortunately they're also starting up a "sequel" store: Dresssty.

First Dress Barn, now Forever 21 has filed for bankruptcy!

I just don't know what to say. I'm speechless. why didn't someone tell me about this earlier?

Well Walmart isn't dying yet! Rejoice fat whores.

Why is this happening????

Dressbarn, which has been around for more than five decades, has struggled to grow in apparel retailing as more women steer toward fast-fashion retailers such as H&M and Zara, off-price chains such as T.J. Maxx and Ross Stores, and even Target. Amazon also continues to take a larger share of the apparel market online.

Well, the dresses are big enough to fit cows, so it makes perfect sense to me.

I've bought all my clothes from Dress Barns for years. I like Dress Barns so much better than that fucking Strawberries. As a professional woman I need clothes that are sensible, look good and provide me with a sense of style at an affordable price. Dress Barns has always been there for me. Seeing it go out of business is like losing a good friend. I don't know what I'll do or where I'll go next to shop for a professional look at a value price. There is a Penney's in the mall down the street. I may have to give them a second look!

I drove by a Dress Barn yesterday and there was no indication it was closing.

Well, I've been inconsolable since Casual Corner went under, so I don't think I'll be able to survive this.

Getting larger is not on of the list of Dress Barn's problems.
