Richard Alan, one of the few remaining Irish-owned fashion emporiums in Oliver Plunkett Street Cork, is having a make-over. The store is rebranding to become the 17th Pamela Scott shop in this hugely successful Irish owned fashion chain.

This new Pamela Scott store will continue to hold many of the labels much loved by their loyal Cork clientele such as Olsen, Betty Barclay and NYDJ (the hugely popular and much loved Tummy Tuck Jeans range). But by becoming a Pamela Scott store it will now expand on the the range of modern womens fashionable on trend labels available with the addition of, among many others, Ruby Rox, Sophie B, Twist and OC by OC.

All of these labels and more are now available alongside a range of – new to store every two weeks - belts, hats, jewellery and other accessories that will update any look instantly.

The 3,000 square feet over two floors popular shopping space has been trading successfully since the 1990’s and the Barron family who own and operate both Pamela Scott and Richard Alan stores are delighted with this new development.

Commenting on the Richard Alan to Pamela Scott name change Robert Barron said “We are an Irish company and we listen and respond to our Irish customers. Over the years the customer requirements of shoppers in Richard Alan in Cork became more and more similar to that of Pamela Scott shoppers nationwide; so much so the re-brand was not only inevitable, it was unavoidable. Now by formalling re-branding to Pamela Scott the Cork city centre store can be given an injection of fresh stylish labels while maintaining the top selling brands that loyal customers love”.
