Bend boutique moving across town

The Closet, a women’s clothing and accessories boutique, is moving from east to west.

Owner Ronda Fitton said she’s secured a lease at Century Park at SW Simpson Avenue and SW Century Drive, in the same development as Safeway, Pilot Butte Drive-In Westside and Taco Del Mar.

The Closet will occupy the space once held by Great Outdoors, an outdoor clothing and gear retailer.

“I think it’s a good location for us,” Fitton said Thursday. “A lot of our clients are on the west side.”

The move arose out of a need for space for a furniture showroom at the Cascade Design Center, 1805 NE U.S. Highway 20, she said. The center is a place to find flooring, window coverings, furniture and help with interior design.

Fitton said she hopes to open The Closet in its new location in July. The Closet also has a location in Sunriver.
