Our high street is constantly evolving, with beloved brands disappearing along the way. More businesses have gone bust in recent months than since the 2009 financial crisis. But just because a retailer no longer has a physical presence doesn't mean you can't still buy from them. Here's a list of 10 iconic shops that you can still purchase from.
Topshop
Topshop left the high street when Philip Green's Arcadia Group went bust in 2021. Asos stepped in to buy the brand, and you can now find Topshop items on the Asos website.
Paperchase
Paperchase went bust earlier this year, but Tesco bought the rights to the brand. You can now find "Paperchase at Tesco" in select Tesco stores and on its website.
Toys R Us
Toys R Us collapsed in 2018, but this year it returned with new shops opening within WHSmith stores. You can find a range of toys from popular brands at these locations.
BHS
BHS relaunched online in 2016, selling lights, towels, bedding, rugs, and more. You can find thousands of homeware items on their website.
Debenhams
Debenhams left the high street in 2021, but you can still shop for fashion, homeware, make-up, and fragrances on the Debenhams website.
Gap
Gap closed all of its UK and Ireland stores in 2021, but you can now find Gap clothing in Next stores and on its website.
Wilko
Wilko went into administration in August and closed all of its shops. The brand name was sold to The Range, and you can now find Wilko products in The Range stores.
M&Co
M&Co's 170 stores disappeared from the high street, but the brand was sold to Yours Clothing. You can now shop for M&Co clothing on their website.
Evans
Evans, a plus-sized clothing brand, was acquired by Yours Clothing and relaunched its website. The physical stores will not reopen.
Cath Kidston
Cath Kidston closed its final store in June, but you can still buy Cath Kidston branded items on the Next website.
