One of the high street's most popular brands has opened a huge new store in Sunderland city centre after a £1M investment.
New Look has taken over the former Disney Store and HMV units in The Bridges shopping centre and opened the doors to shoppers for the first time today (April 13).
The former New Look branch on Crowntree Road has closed to make way for the new store and HMV has also moved to a new location in the shopping centre.

The fashion retailer will be offering completely new stock as well as different ranges from those previously available in the new store.
Karen Eve, centre director at the Bridges, said: “There’s been a huge amount of interest while the refurbishment has been taking place and we know that shoppers can’t wait to get inside and see all the fantastic items on offer.
"The store is in a prime position in the centre and we know it will be really well received.
“The relocation protects the future of a well-shopped high street brand in Sunderland. It is part of a phased plan to keep our favourite shops by placing them in the units that best suit their needs."
