Go check out the new Renew Fashions 2020 on Main Street in Kipling. 聽
A 28-year resident of Kipling and area, Loretta Demyen took over Renew Fashions on Aug. 1, with a major makeover. Renaming the business Renew Fashions 2020, Demyen is forever changing the clothing store to meet needs for everyone; young, young at heart, women and men. 聽
The store will stock new, 鈥榥ew to you鈥� and liquidation items. As the current in-stock items sell, she will be incorporating more men鈥檚 clothing in her store.聽
With people shopping more locally for many reasons related to COVID-19, Demyen explained how she will be stocking the essential things people need, like socks, underwear, mittens, etc., so they do not have to make a trip to the city to just get a few things. 聽
鈥淚鈥檝e sold so many mitts and toques recently because people are not wanting to go to the city if they don鈥檛 have to,鈥� Demyen said. 鈥淚t is nice to be able to have that stuff available in your own town.鈥澛�
Kipling had two clothing stores at one time, and with Timeless Trends closing, Demyen felt this was a necessity for her community. She feels especially bad for the immune compromised in Kipling and area, as leaving their homes to go shopping for needs is not a healthy option. 聽
鈥淚 am very willing to do video calls (like Facetime) so people can see what I have in the store. I can have their items ready for pick up, will deliver locally or mail it out, because I can only imagine the frustration for those people,鈥� Demyen empathized. 聽
Demyen explained another aspect of her store. 鈥淲ith any donation of clothing, I give people a 20 per cent off coupon to be used on any item in my store (new, used or liquidation) and if they do not want the coupon I give it to our local food bank. They will distribute them to those in need and can put them into the Christmas hampers they make up.鈥� 聽
As with all retail clothing stores, there are always some items that do not sell during the season Demyen gives any extra that she has to Sophia House in Regina or to one of the many outlets for people with disabilities.聽
The Renew Fashions 2020 website has their newer items available to purchase at: www.renewfashions.com聽聽聽
鈥淚f we get into a lockdown situation, I will be adding to the availability as needed,鈥� Demyen explained. 聽
She will be offering specials often that you can contact her about at (306) 736-7568 or you can check out on FB at Renew Fashions 2020聽
