Forever 21

A once-popular mall fashion chain is officially leaving New Jersey and Pennsylvania, closing its final stores and marking the end of an era for local shoppers.

The chain had reportedly been seeing increased competition from fast-fashion outlets.

It's a staple that's been around since the 80s and can be found in malls across New Jersey.

If you've shopped at Forever 21 in the last three months, you could be the victim of a recent data breach involving the retail clothing chain.

Here's some GOOD local retailer news: The Forever 21 store at the Hamilton Mall in Mays Landing is apparently not on the retailer's list of stores that will be closing as part of the company's bankruptcy.
