Located opposite Argos, Yours Clothing opened at 10am and treated the first 50 customers to a ‘goody bag’.

She said: “I have been following the Yours Clothing brand for about three years now.

“I love how their clothes fit and they are a great price.

“The closest store has been Southampton so it’s great to have one on our door step. It has been a long time coming.

“I actually took the day off work today to see the store open.”

Yvonne Banks, 63, had been queuing for the grand opening since 8.45am.

She said: “It is very exciting to have a store designed for larger ladies in Worthing.

“I used to buy all my stuff online but then I had to wait for it to arrive and find out it doesn’t fit. Having a store in Worthing is great.

“Coming along today and getting a ‘goody bag’ was a bonus.”
