The final Ted Baker stores will close this week after a deal to save the brand name fell through.
Earlier this month, the Daily Star reported how all 46 stores would close after it went into administration earlier this year. However, administrators have been unable to find a way to solve the issues within the business since then.
According to Drapers, the store closures started two weeks ago and will continue until Tuesday (August 20). It also includes concessions and the website, although fashion investment company PDS bought the Ted Baker Design group in 2023 and will keep its London office open despite making cuts to staff numbers.

It was thought that the Frasers Group would try to save it, but Sky News now claims that has not been successful.
In an email sent to store staff last month, the administrators said: “We are sorry to have shared such difficult news. However, we want to emphasise again that this outcome is no reflection of the amazing work and support you have provided these last four months.
“As we approach the end of our current stock sale strategy, it has become increasingly clear that an agreement may not be reached in time. If it isn’t, there will be no immediate transition to a new operator once the administration strategy is complete.”
The Ted Baker website is no longer available for purchases and has a simple message on it which states “Goodbye for now”.
