Full list of 33 River Island shop closures
The fate of another 70 shops depends on reaching agreements with landlords to slash rents.
Confirmation of the locations comes after Sky News revealed the company, which was founded in 1948 by Bernard Lewis, was working with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) on a restructuring plan.
A restructuring plan is a court-supervised process enabling companies in financial difficulty to compromise with creditors, like landlords, to avoid insolvency.
It's unclear how many jobs are under threat from a formal rescue deal, though the business previously said: " We regret any job losses as a result of store closures, and we will try to keep these to a minimum. "
