New Look Website Down: 30% Off In-Store While You Wait
Fashion fans, get ready! New Look's website and app are currently down, leaving online shoppers temporarily in the lurch. But don't despair – the popular high street retailer is offering a silver lining: a 30% discount in all physical stores until the website returns on Monday evening, February 24th.
Why is New Look's Website Down?
New Look announced the temporary outage in an email to customers on Sunday evening, February 23rd. The email hinted at "exciting updates" and promised fresh arrivals soon. A spokesperson confirmed the downtime is due to a planned system upgrade. While online shopping is temporarily paused, New Look's brick-and-mortar stores remain open for business.
Store Closures and Future Plans
This website update comes amidst a period of store closures for New Look. Several locations have recently shut their doors permanently, including branches in Loughborough, Essex, and Bracknell. Earlier reports suggested that the brand may accelerate store closures in the coming months in response to rising taxes, potentially affecting a significant portion of its UK outlets. The company has not yet confirmed these reports. Notably, the Irish branch of New Look has also gone into liquidation.
How to Snag that 30% Discount
While New Look's online store is undergoing maintenance, shoppers can still enjoy their latest collections with a tempting 30% discount. Simply visit your nearest New Look store and present the barcode provided in the email notification to claim your discount.
What's Next for New Look?
The planned system upgrade suggests New Look is investing in improving its online shopping experience. With new arrivals promised, the retailer seems to be actively pushing forward despite recent challenges. The brand's future will likely depend on navigating the changing retail landscape, balancing online and in-store presence, and adapting to evolving customer expectations. Check back on Monday evening to see the updated website and shop the latest drops.
