Whistles

I am completely obsessed with this place! I have always loved Whistles, with their pretty, fashionable and gourgeous feeling clothes! So when this outlet shop opened in the Lowry (oh so close to work!) I was really excited! I never used to be able to afford Whistles clothes, so I used to go in and dream about buying lovely things. Now I can go and buy loads as it is so cheap! The other day I bought a beautiful, pale blue silk dress for £45, reduced from £250! I also got my best friend a blose last christmas for £14 reduced from £95… and these discounts really do apply across the ranges. The clothes may be last season but Whistles clothes are generally pretty classic anyway. The staff are lovely and the shop is always clean with good music! GREAT place!

If you’re a fan of Whistles prettily feminine clothes, you’re likely to be enraptured when you discover this branch. With true outlet prices and a decent selection of styles and sizes, there’s plenty to tempt old and new fans alike.

The staff here are extraordinarily good, offering honest opinions; amongst the best boutique staff I have ever encountered. Even at the risk of losing a sale, they opined, honestly, that they thought their smallest size too large for me. Then they proceeded to give practical suggestions as to how it could still be a feasible option, given that the design and colour were fabulous.

They happily held the dress, for an hour, while I continued my shopping and even offered to call a cab for me, when I was dubious about braving the deluge outside. If I lived closer, I’m sure I’d visit regularly. A true pleasure to shop here!
