RETAIL giants New Look have revealed plans to close 60 stores across the country, including its Torquay branch.

News of the closure comes as bosses unveil a restructure plan to make the fashion chain more profitable.

Around 1,000 jobs are set to be axed in the mass shut-down, which will take place over the next 12 months.

Exeter’s Men’s outlet is also set to bite the dust as well as stores in Cardiff, London and Sidmouth.

Shoppers will still be able to browse through clothes at New Look in Newton Abbot and Paignton.
