VICTORIA'S Secret will shut its Southampton branch this weekend as part of closures across the UK. 

The Westquay store will close for the last time on Sunday after it was announced earlier this year that the retailer had moved out of administration and into liquidation.

The lingerie brand will no longer have a physical store in Southampton for the first time in eight years.

A message to customers placed outside the shop reads: "This store will be closing. You can continue to shop online at www.victoriassecret.co.uk."

The departure of the high-end retailer comes after a series of shop closures across Southampton due to the cost of living crisis.

The shopping centre has not confirmed what will replace it.
