Sweet feminine things can be had at the Tocca sample sale where merchandise is 60-80% off retail. As I took the elevator up to the Chelsea showroom, I was met with the scent of wild daisies (Montecristo) wafting in the air. When you walk into the room, you’ll find signature candles, shower [...]

The Avalon Group Showroom in the far west end of Chelsea saw a mad rush today as the after work crowd showed up for the Fred Perry biannual sample sale. This sale is always very well-organized (men’s in one section and women’s in another). There’s always lots of merchandise on [...]

SampleSally — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 16:22:47 +0000

It’s the last day of the Jil Sander sample sale so I thought I’d do a spot check. No line outside the Soho showroom this morning. But staffers got a late start, making the small group outside wait in the cold about 15 minutes before opening the doors. Not good considering [...]

Through Saturday, NYC-based Chilean designer, Maria Cornejo, is hosting a sample sale in Nolita. I popped into the large space on Centre Street yesterday. Before you can shop, you have to check-in your handbag and coat. Plus, they asked me to sign a liability form, which I thought was weird. The staffer [...]

There’s not a lot left at the Jil Sander showroom on Crosby Street. I popped in yesterday and found a fairly empty space (compared to the first day). They were about to close and I just made it inside. The staffers were rolling out unneeded racks. As to what’s left… well, there [...]
