And it is one of the first in Scotland to feature the stylish new Mediterranean-inspired concept, New Med. The new store has been built to generate a low environmental impact. The design boasts a Mediterranean theme with warm and neutral colours, combined with traditional, handcrafted, sustainable and natural materials. A large window at the front of the shop allows Overgate's customers to see the bright interior and affordable collections from outside. The branch also includes a click and collect area, as well as a new Committed Box. This is a container where customers can deposit clothing and footwear to give their garments a second life. Commenting, Malcolm Angus, Centre Manager, Overgate said: 'We are delighted to welcome Mango to Overgate. 'There has been huge interest and excitement about the brand's arrival to Dundee and this weekend's opening is a fantastic addition to the centre as it continues its remarkable retail transformation. 'Mango within Overgate will offer highly desirable wardrobe essentials and on-trend fashion for women at affordable price points, set within the store's striking New Med aesthetic.

In addition to the arrival of Mango, iconic British brand Clarks opened a new store in Overgate last month. Sports Direct tycoon Mike Ashley bought the Overgate Shopping Centre in Dundee in 2023. Since then huge plans have emerged for the retail hub, including a £5million transformation. One plan for the centre is a huge new department store. Frasers, which is owned by Ashley, will take over the vacant Debenhams. The store is scheduled to open in June.

First look inside new Mango fashion store in Dundee
Fashion retailer Mango has officially opened its doors in Dundee, bringing a fresh Mediterranean flair to the city's retail scene. The new store occupies the former Frankie and Benny's unit on the ground floor in the Overgate Shopping Centre. Spanning more than 350 square metres, the store is dedicated exclusively to Mango Woman, the brand's womenswear line. The Dundee outlet is among the first in Scotland to feature a Mediterranean-inspired store design. The opening marks a return to Dundee for Mango, which previously operated in the city as a concession. The decision to return as a standalone store is part of a larger expansion strategy by the fashion chain, which has seen rapid growth over the past year. Store manager Jackie McColl said: 'There's certainly a need for it in the market, so I'm super, super excited we have come back. 'The store is the new concept. The stock has the full range that we sell online. We want to see what people in Dundee want. 'I want customers to come in, meet the team, see how we do customer service and the quality of the garments. 'It's much needed in Dundee, so hopefully it means that people come and keep coming back.' The store will also offer a click and collect services for orders purchased online. The new shop had a steady stream of shoppers on its opening day. Student Brittany Noble, 26, said she discovered the store by accident and left with a haul. She said: 'It's fuelling my shopping addiction. I hadn't realised it was opening and just walking by I thought I might as well pop in and I've walked out with too many things.' Michelle Weir, 45, from Dundee, said: 'I love it, it looks so nice. I always find something at Mango. I'll definitely come back.' Anna Tindal, 19, from Carnoustie, praised the store's layout and said it filled a gap in the city. 'Their set-up is just like what we need in Dundee, I feel like it's going to be popular. 'I bought two tops, but I think I'll be back. I'm telling my friends about the shop.' Kerry Essery, 51, from Dundee, welcomed the addition of a new retailer to the city centre. 'I love it, it's nice to see a different shop in the centre. I managed to find a pair of trousers and a top. I'll be coming back.'
