A huge retro thrift shop is opening in Hull - with a £1 event to celebrate the opening.
The unit previously occupied by River Island in Princes Quay will reopen on Saturday, April 6 as The Thrift Shop Hull. The new shop will specialise in retro and unique clothing and is said to be both nostalgic and original while focusing on sustainable fashion and keeping style.
To celebrate the new store opening, the shop is kicking off with a collection of thrift and second-hand clothes all for just £1. The Thrift Shop says that they are trying to redefine the concept of shopping with a purpose. By offering a curated selection of thrift and second-hand items, the store encourages conscious consumerism and celebrates the charm of past treasures that stand the test of time.
