The La Perla sample sale kicked off today at Noon. Check out what the line looked like an hour after opening. Not too bad. But once you get inside, be prepared to perspire! It was crowded and hot. Stay tuned for a full report later today. But pricing is pretty much the same as previous sales (mostly 60% off retail). Main collection bras are $80. Diffusion line bras are now $30-$50.
Where/When: 225 Fifth Avenue (b/w 26th &27th Sts). June 10-14; Sunday (Noon-5p), Mon-Wed (9:30-6p), Thurs (9:30-6p). Cash & Credit Cards Accepted.
I bought a pass on Gilt to attend this sale between 10a-12p. I was about 20th in the door and things were going quickly. All of the bras were in bins. There was a wide selection of sizes, but not as many in 34/32 A and B. As noted, they black label was $80/ bra or $140 for two. I don’t know if they’ll replenish. There was also no trying on, so you have to know what fits you going in. Depending on what you’re looking for, it’s worth going.
Ugh. This was a hot sweaty mess, and I hardly feel like it was worth the two disgustingly dropping with sweat hours I had to spend in this hellhole. It’s not that cheap and there are tons of RUDE foreigners. Yuck. I would never do it again- ever!
How’s the selection for larger sizes? Say…34C?
Cat – they did have C-cups. And I did see a bin with 34Cs. But the bra bins were quickly being picked through.
SAKS has an amazing La Perla sale section right now. If you go there it’s 60% off and if you become friends with one of the sales people they will contact you when they have sale in your size AND pull SALE items for you before you come in. amazingness.
