Francesca's, the popular women's clothing and accessories chain that's been a mall favorite for 25 years, has filed for Chapter 11, bankruptcy in New Jersey back in February. The filing means they're closing more than 450 stores across 45 states, including nine locations in Alabama in places like Birmingham, Huntsville, and Mobile. As of early March, 254 stores were still open, but now the going out of business sales are in their final weeks with discounts up to 70% on everything in the stores, plus fixtures.
