Its signature style ranges from heritage rugby shirts, polos and Oxford shirts to printed dresses and supersoft knitwear - and Crew also introduced Crew Sport last year, a sportswear collection designed for everybody and every ability.
Crew Clothing describes its clothes as being British-inspired and influenced by British casual wear, sporting and yachting traditions.
It has more than 100 stores around the country, plus concessions in several department stores and the brand is a proud partner of England’s Red Roses, the Lawn Tennis Association, Henley Royal Regatta, iPadel and Exeter Chiefs.
Carol Kane, Head of Retail at Crew Clothing, said: “We’re really pleased to be opening in Lytham this spring.
“It’s a fantastic location with a strong local community and a great affinity for the brand. As we continue to build on a successful period of retail growth, this opening is a natural next step in bringing Crew to even more customers across the UK.”
The company recently opened a new store in Buxton an says further new locations are planned throughout 2026 as the brand strengthens its presence across key towns and shopping destinations.
The Clifton Street store into which Crew is moving has been vacant since last year when Bodycare collapsed into administration.
Suzanne Taylor, who chairs the Lytham Business Partnership traders’ organisation said: “We will warmly welcome Crew Clothing to Lytham. It is great to have such premium brand stores alongside our independent businesses and I’m sure will help add to the attraction of Lytham for shoppers.”
