It's officially the end of an era for the women's fashion chain Francesca's, which has been selling cozy closet staples and trendy jewelry since 1999. Many reports say that the retailer has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and intends to liquidate all their assets that have not been paid for yet. When asked for comment, a customer service representative told Women's Wear Daily in an email that, “we are liquidating our inventory and closing soon.”
If you're asking what this means for you and your shopping cart, you can expect their website to have major sales starting now. While the status of their brick-and-mortar stores' closing is still up in the air, their website already reflects a steep clearance sale where many items are highly discounted.
As someone who shopped for many homecoming dresses at my local Francesca's and always stopped in to admire their unique jewelry and gifts, the news of its closure is sad to hear. Take this as your opportunity to shop their site at a major discount while you still can. Look below to see what caught our eyes at their warehouse sale.
