Clothing chain Dressbarn to close all 650 stores

Ladies, your dress-shopping options just got a little smaller.

All 650 Dressbarn stores across the nation will eventually go out of business, according to its parent company, Ascena Retail Group. The timeframe is not clear and Ascena says the stores remain open for now.

Dressbarn has been in business since 1962, but the clothing chain has been in the red for a while.
