The closures are part of a court approved restructuring plan that was sanctioned in August to help save the beleaguered British brand after it reported a £32.3m pre-tax loss.

The restructure, which ratified 33 shop closures and attempts to seek rent reductions at 71 locations, was signed off to prevent the business from going into administration.
