New boutique to open in Philadelphia

A new clothing store is coming to Philadelphia, Miss.

Located on 432 beacon street, the Princess Closet will open its doors on Saturday, bringing the latest fashion and accessories to women sizes zero to 24.

Boutique owner Keshia Willis says the idea to start the business took shape after she found limited options for women in Philadelphia.

“I’m a plus-size lady and Philadelphia doesn’t have much clothing for plus-size women. We have to go to like Starkville and out of Mississippi to find clothes. Let’s just do it in town.” Willis said.

Over the weekend, the store held a fashion show to showcase what will be in the store.

The store’s ribbon cutting ceremony is this Saturday and residents can start shopping inside afterward.
