00:00A leading luxury retailer has officially opened its doors in Leeds.
00:04Flannels has welcomed its first customers in the former Debenhams site on Brigitte,
00:09which has been under renovation since late last year.
00:12It has been one of the most highly anticipated openings in Leeds, and the transformed venue
00:17covers six floors and spans 65,000 square feet.
00:21As well as clothing and homeware, the venue is set to launch Pilates and yoga classes
00:26and a run club.
00:28Debenhams closed its last 28 stores forever on the 15th of May 2021, including their Brigitte
00:35venue.
00:36Plans were underway for the site to become student flats, but these were abandoned in
00:40favour of opening the Flannels flagship store.
00:43A statement submitted as part of the planning application said the proposed scheme will
00:48deliver a sustainable beneficial use for a vacant retail building, and highlighted the
00:53positive contribution the refurbishment of the Grade II listed building will make to
00:57the economic vitality of the area.
