A Look at the Rag & Bone Sample Sale

There were plenty of shoppers inside Chelsea Market yesterday at the Rag & Bone preview sale.  This is yet another brand that draws a large crowd at its sales. This one hadn’t officially opened to the public and already they were running out of merchandise such as the label’s sought-after jeans.  When I got there at the end of the day, sizing was already limited. I couldn’t find any sizes 26 & 27 in many of the styles and colors such as turquoise, red and navy.  Staffers told me that all the denim was out.  No restocking on this item?
