Kat Farmer's new George at Asda Collection
The buzz comes just weeks after Asda launched its first-ever stand-alone George store in Leeds, which could be rolled out nationwide if it proves a hit.
The new store, which opened on Saturday, May 10, in the old Asda Living unit at Crown Point Retail Park, is a dream come true for George fans.
It's packed with affordable fashion, stylish homeware, must-have toys, and adorable baby gear, plus a brand new café to keep you fuelled mid-shop.
There are currently 30 Asda Living stores in the UK, but the supermarket giant is testing the waters with this new George-only concept.
Bosses are expected to make a decision later this year on whether more will launch across the country.
The George brand, first launched in 1989 by fashion guru George Davies, changed the game as the UK's first supermarket clothing label.
By 2004, it had become the nation's biggest clothing retailer, and today it's still going strong, racking up 260 million visits a year to its site and stocking shelves in 560 stores.

'We have tried time and time again to employ more kitchen staff but ultimately the depth of talent is not available and we are unable to strike any work life balance for ourselves especially being parents to two teenage boys.

'We wish our existing staff every success for the future and thank them for their hard work in making our establishment what it is.' The owners have clarified that The George will be running as normal until Sunday, July 20, and will close on July 21. The pub owners says they have advertised positions for kitchen staff often but have not found any suitable applicants. They wrote in their Facebook post: 'We have advertised often for kitchen staff but do not seem to get any suitable applicants. It is sadly a sign of the times since Covid that hardly anyone wants to work evenings and weekends when we are busy. 'We will reassess our options after the 20th July and might consider opening just daytimes for breakfast/brunches etc but no firm decision has been made.' The pub will be calling those who have a booking after July 20 regarding cancellations. Those who have a voucher can use it at the pub by July 20, or contact the pub for a refund.

"It's been incredibly rewarding to see them being grown successfully here in Perthshire's rich farmland and building on our family's 125-year legacy of farming and commitment to quality." Premium golden raspberries are said to have a "delicate texture", as well as the distinctive yellow hue that sets them apart from their red-coloured cousins. Stevie McLaughlin, Head Chef at the two Michelin-starred Restaurant Andrew Fairlie at Gleneagles, has been incorporating the golden raspberries into his fine dining desserts.
