Sandbach Mayor, Councillor Ann Nevitt, followed in the footsteps of fashionista and popstar, Louise Redknapp when she modelled one of the Eternal star's coats from her special collection.  

Clothing store, Peacocks, opened a branch at Penda Way in Sandbach today (Thursday) and shoppers queued up to make the opening  

Professionally known as Louise, an English singer, dancer and media personality and member of the band Eternal, the Louise Redknapp Edit range is on sale with the store.  

And Cllr Nevitt was delighted to try on a red coat which retails at just £50 from the Louise Redknapp Edit range. 

"I already have two other coats in red which are great for winter and Christmas time but it is a lovely coat. We welcome Peacocks to the town and wish every success to the store and its staff."   

Also stocked is the menswear range as seen on football star, Michael Owen as well as the new lingerie range as loved by the model Caprice.
