a store instead of Bloomingdales?

A question for my British friends. Giles' PoV describing a woman. She's a secretary but she buys upscale clothes. I'm thinking Bloomingdale's discount rack. But I don't know if a British guy would know Bloomies.

This is Bicester Village. I use that line to London a lot and the trains are always packed with tourists going there to shop. Lots of Chinese people in particular, for some reason.

I do not get modern fashion, especially what the younger set likes to wear. It honestly looks ugly to me. Sounds like I'm getting old, doesn't it? ;-)

We all do. Though, to be fair, my daughters dress nicely and are only 23 and 26.

Somebody has to be wearing the ugly clothes I see being sold at the mall. Happily they don't tend to hang out where I do.
