Dorothy Perkins are one of my favourite ladieswear shops! They are part of the Arcadia group (Topshop, Miss S, Evans, Burtons) and they cater for most shapes and sizes. As well as their standard ladies range which goes up to a size 24, they have a range for petite, tall and maternity.
The South shields branch is quite small compared to some branches, however, because it is just a small town branch they often have very good sales. They also offer 10% student discount if you have an NUS card so it is great if you are on a tight budget. It is worth noting that DP also have special promotional events whereby they offer 20% off everything in store so if you are looking to buy a lot of items in one go, it is worth waiting for one of these events!
Great shop for all your essentials like jumpers and tops for layering, but also you can pick up some nice unique party wear and jewellry. read more
