Budget-Conscious Fashion Retailers

Forever 21 Red Stores Offer Even More Affordable Fashion

— May 8, 2014 — Fashion
Forever 21 Red is a new concept store from the fashion retailer that will make its affordable clothing choices even more accessible to its young target audience. The F21 Red store recently opened its doors on May 3rd inside the Azalea Shopping Center in South Gate, California, most likely to the sounds of students cheering.

Since Forever 21 has been around it has differentiated itself from popular name brands like American Eagle, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Aeropostale mostly by price, which has made it a struggle for other retailers to keep up.

At F21 Red, prices start at $1.80 for camisoles, $3.80 for t-shirts and denim is $7.80. In addition to these hard-to-pass-up deals, the California location will also offer some of the brand's other lines, including apparel, accessories, shoes, 21MEN menswear and plus sizes from the Forever 21+ line.
