‘Finally!’ Tesco shoppers rejoice as a big change is announced for F&F clothing
TESCO’s F&F clothing range is a big hit with customers – and now stocking up on your wardrobe essentials can be a lot easier.
It is clear that the supermarket will make a major change to its affordable collection for the first time in six years.
According to Draperscustomers will soon be able to order clothing from the F&F range directly from the Tesco website, instead of having to shop in stores.
Shoppers have responded to the news and seemed excited to get their hands on the latest cozy winter coat and cute dresses.
One said: “Finally,” and another added: “I’m baffled that @Tesco is only now bringing their clothing brand F&F back online after it collapsed in 2018, but it’s a good move nonetheless.”
This was already the case six years ago, but was stopped in 2018.
The publication claimed that the clothing range will go live on the Tesco Marktplaats, which was introduced in June.
This functions 9,000 products distributed household itemstoys and DIY.
Fabulous contacted Tesco for comment, and a spokesperson replied: “We are always looking at ways to improve our online offering for customers and we will keep them informed if and when we have something to share.”
F&F fans could buy first the range on a separate website from 2009, but this was later moved to Tesco Direct in 2016.
It was subsequently demolished in 2018.
However, shoppers could still access the collection through January Next.
It’s not just clothing items that are in the F&F range.
Tesco mega-shopper reacts to the F&F news
FABULOUS’ Associate Editor and Tesco superfan Rebecca Miller gives her opinion on the online availability of F&F…
According to reports, Tesco will relaunch its F&F clothing range online in the coming months.
And I, like millions of other women, am ecstatic.
Over the past year F&F has upped its game, they are on top of the trends and selling some beautiful pieces at brilliant prices. But there was always one problem: no one could get their hands on the clothes.
That’s because Tesco has only sold F&F clothing in store for the past six years.
That’s problem number one. Problem number two: limited inventory.
So if you are lucky enough to be able to go to your local store, you are very unlikely to find the item you want in your size.
And if you did manage to put the item in the bag – you can’t fit it anywhere – problem number three.
That’s because many Tesco stores are closing their changing rooms to reduce staff costs.
Something I was once told during my hundredth – no lie – time of swapping and re-tailoring the same garment, was that I had bought it in different sizes because I had to try it on at home.
So if the rumors are true, and fingers crossed that the online launch happens before Christmas, my life and the lives of all other F&F lovers will be so much easier.
I can leisurely browse through F&f’s latest collection, select all the sizes I want to try on and have them delivered straight to my home.
Fingers crossed that the return policy is simple!
And maybe the next problem that F&F could solve is the fit of the clothes…. Don’t get me started on the ankle-length pants and jeans that are too big around the waist, or the pretty summer dress that cuts off your armpits because the size is wrong…
NEW AVENUE
Earlier this month they also expanded with their first-ever homewares brand, with items starting at 50 cents.
The range of more than 1,000 items includes plates and glassware, rugs and footstools, bedding, upholstery and decorative accessories.
Items from the new range start at just 50 cents for a glass cup, with plates, mugs and bowls available from just £2.50 and cocktail and wine Glasses from just €3.50.
Jan Marchant, CEO of F&F Home, said: “Fashion now consists of homewares. Our clothing customers always want to stay informed of the latest trends and get value for their money moneywithout compromising on quality.
“With this exciting first foray into homewares, we’re thrilled to help deliver this same commitment in the home space, with both statement and basic pieces to suit a range of styles and tastes.”
How has Tesco’s F&F upped its game?
By Fabulous’ fashion editor Clemmie Fieldsend
ZARA has become a staple on the shopping streets in recent years thanks to its trendy designs and affordable prices.
But recently, those prices have increased with the brand’s popularity.
However, if you are looking for high fashion-inspired outfits with a low price tag, don’t drag yourself to the local stores, just head to the supermarket.
F&F has come a long way from selling a few T-shirts and fluffy dressing gowns and is now a must-have shopping destination for thousands.
They produce durable, trendy, good quality clothing that puts others to shame.
F&F is filled with Zara dupes and other looks inspired by our favorite stores that will cost you under £50 – and you can get them while you pick up your dinner.
I love F&F denim, it’s durable, fits really well and has the best silhouettes.
So even if you’re not looking for reasonable prices but just want good clothes, go to Tesco.
