The Sophomore sample sale kicked off this afternoon in Nolita. Artsy Anna who checked out the NYC based brand’s offerings wasn’t completely sold on the goods. Here’s her report:
A few months ago New York mini-chain Purdy Girl hosted a “sample sale” for spring merch by Francis.  Similarly, cutesy Mulberry Street boutique Court has devoted the majority of their tiny space to spring and summer stock from contemporary sportswear line, Sophomore.  All prices are as marked.  Scoopneck solid and graphic tees are $20-36 down from $50 and up.  Unstructured knot blazers are $60-87.  Sundresses, tunics, and cover-ups are $20-150.  There’s not much to go around but at these medium sized discounts  there weren’t tons of other shoppers.  If you’re a Sophomore fanatic,  you’ll enjoy this sale.  My suggestion?  Skip this sale and head up a few blocks to check out the amazing vintage finds on the sale racks at Zachary’s Smile. Tons of cute end of summer frocks are $20-50!
Where/When: 178 Mulberry St, btwn Broome & Kenmare (212.925.1022). August 26 to 28. Thu-Sat (noon-8p).
