The Stray Ferret understands independent fashion retailer Jules B is set to close its Harrogate store.

The womenswear boutique, which took on the former Jaeger unit on Cambridge Crescent, opened in September 2022.

It is one of five Jules B stores, with two each in Jesmond in Newcastle-upon- Tyne and Kendal in Cumbria.

However, the Stray Ferret today received multiple reports to say that the Harrogate branch will close next week.

Owners Julian and Rhonda Blades opened the doors of their first womenswear store in 1984, in Jesmond.

The company, which also has an online store, now employs more than 80 people.

It sells a range of high-end brands, including Ganni, Le Specs, Paul Smith and Vivienne Westwood.

The Stray Ferret has approached Jules B for comment but has not had an immediate response.
