Vanity, a women's specialty clothing and accessories chain with nearly 140 stores nationwide, including seven in Nebraska, announced this week it is going out of business.
The Fargo, North Dakota-based chain declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this week and said it plans to liquidate all of its stores.
The company said on its website that those liquidation sales have already started, and the Fargo Forum newspaper reported that most of the stores will close by the end of March.
Vanity has a store at Gateway Mall in Lincoln, two stores in the Omaha area and stores in Grand Island, Kearney, Norfolk and North Platte.
