A designer clothing shop has been named within the top 50 UK independent boutique stores in a national ranking.

Morgan Clare, based on Montpellier Gardens in Harrogate, has been hailed as a great place to shop after it was included in the Telegraph's top 50 UK stores - setting itself apart as a "premier designer retailer".

In its description on The Telegraph, Morgan Clare was described as: "As well as stocking over 50 designer brands, this boutique offers a whole host of services, including personal shopping, virtual styling, alterations and pre-loved shopping events."

On its website, the company described itself as: "Morgan Clare first opened its doors as a small designer boutique in the beautiful spa town of Harrogate.

"Now Yorkshire's premier designer retailer with a spacious, airy and relaxing two-storey store at the centre of Harrogate designer Montpelier Quarter and an online store that ships worldwide.

"We love inspiring and engaging with our customers, whether in-store or online and are proud to have developed a following nationally and internationally for our very special designer store experience."

Despite the Harrogate-based shop getting a nod in The Telegraph list, there were no shops in County Durham, Tyne and Wear, Teesside or Northumberland included. 

Elsewhere in the list, Tråd Collective in Leeds and Noble & Wylie in Sheffield were the two other shops in Yorkshire that got an inclusion in the top 50. 

In its introduction of its rankings, The Telegraph said: "Nothing beats real-life browsing in independent shops, where clothes are treated as treasures to be loved for years, not discarded after a season. Take a very stylish tour around the country’s finest, as nominated by fashion insiders."
