The new parent company of Fashion Bug is closing six Minnesota stores, including the one in Shakopee, the Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal is reporting.
Ascena Retail Group Inc. completed its aquisition of Charming Shoppes Inc. on Friday and said in a news release they plan to close the 600 remaining Fashion Bug stores by early 2013.
Fashion Bug, located near Cub Foods in Shakopee, sells clothing for women and misses – from jackets and coats, blouses, dresses and skirts to intimates, shoes, shorts, pants and jeans and swimwear. Fashion Bug also sells purses, clutches, wallets, cosmetics and other accessories.
It's the second Shakopee women's retailer with news of closing or selling in the past month. Karizma, a locally-owned boutique downtown is up for sale.

Where do you shop for clothes in Shakopee? And once Fashion Bug is gone, what would you like to see in in its place? We've had one vote for Trader Joe's on the Shakopee Patch Facebook Page, which sounds good to me. Other thoughts?

I don't normally shop for clothes in Shakopee, sometimes Kohl's for dress pants. I vote for Trader Joes because I do travel to Saint Lou Park to shop at that location. Or a decent restaurant, not another pizza place.
