Popular North East shopping centre, Metrocentre, has announced a global fashion brand is set to open a store this month.
Fashion retailer Reiss will open a store at the Gateshead shopping centre's red mall in mid-November.
The store will stock menswear, womenswear, and accessories, and will be located near other popular brands such as Zara, Flannels, and Levi's.
Gavin Prior, Metrocentre centre director, said: "We’re pleased to announce that Reiss will soon be joining the centre in the Lower Red Mall.
"Reiss will join Mango and Sosandar who have also opened over the last couple of months, further strengthening our fashion offering.
"Their arrival comes at an exciting time for the centre and is another step in our commitment to providing the best brands and a top-quality shopping experience for all our visitors."

Reiss, known for its dedication to timeless fashion and wardrobe staples, will offer a more premium collection to shoppers at the Metrocentre in Gateshead.
The retailer's signing is seen as a testament to the strength of the Metrocentre in the North East according to a statement from the centre.
