Fashion-forward retailer, Intermix, is making its winter sale more attractive by offering an extra 50-percent off the sale price. But as fellow shopper, Laura, found out, the appalling service is killing the shopping experience. Here’s what she had to say about her experience at the Madison Avenue boutique:
When I got word Intermix was marking down their sale items another 50% off the sale price, I headed over to the uptown outpost (1003 Madison at 77th Street) to check out what designer goods they had on sale. The prices were excellent but my experience was mauled by some pretty atrocious customer service.

Through this Wednesday (January 25th), Bloomingdale’s is hosting its winter sale & clearance online and in stores. With the first significant snowstorm to hit New York City this season, the store on 3rd Avenue was fairly quiet for a Saturday. It was a good time for fellow shopper, Laura, to check out the offerings. Here’s her findings:
I headed over to Bloomingdale’s to check out their additional 40% and 50% discounts on designer merchandise. Maybe because I just saw the designer consolidation sale at Saks Fifth Avenue and insane markdowns at Neimanmarcus.com you could say expectations were high. At Bloomingdale’s the store was quiet for a Saturday especially the contemporary section. What I did see was almost every section from Marc by Marc to DVF to Joie to Theory to Alice and Olivia having a lot of merchandise marked at 40% off. It didn’t all look exclusively “winter” either some of the sections had work appropriate items that could definitely be pushed into spring.

I made a quick stop into the Theory sale in Soho on Wednesday… the discount is still at 70-percent off and there was a lot of merchandise left. A new shipment of goods just arrived when we got there. Staffers were taking the boxes into the back room so they could replenish the sales floor.

The large space on Mercer Street in Soho was fairly calm this morning as Theory‘s public sale got underway. It was a breeze getting in. No line and no coat or bag check.
Lots of merchandise (clothing, shoes and bags at 70-percent off retail) from the main Theory line, Theyskens’ Theory as well as Helmut Lang. While this is a sale on women’s stuff, I did spot a guy going through the shoes. He appeared to be on the phone with someone, describing the offerings.

A brisk and busy start to the Helmut Lang + Theyskens’ Theory fall sample sale today… the 2nd floor of the brand’s showroom in the Flatiron is filled with plenty of merchandise, hung neatly by style on racks. You’ll find the price lists tacked on the walls as well as sale signs for key garments placed on racks (very organized!).

We’re hearing that sale organizers have slashed prices at the Helmut Lang & Theyskens Theory sample sale in Soho, which was extended through today. A tipster reported getting an extra 25 percent off on her purchases yesterday. We can’t confirm this. But if you’re aware, let us know… since [...]
The Helmut Lang + Theyskens’ Theory women’s sample sale opens to the public tomorrow. But some of you bought a $20 ticket from Gilt City to get in a day early – today. One of our readers was just there and she sends us a report with photos (including the price lists). Our tipster, “P,†got up at 6am to get to the sale and she says it was well worth it:
“…There is a doorman who is checking tickets. However he is a really nice and talkative guy, when I went to pick up some bags that we had checked he was distracted and someone walked in off the street who probably didn’t have a ticket. However, he will turn you away if he catches you.
I was really there for Theyskens. Tons of stuff from current season (I mean it’s only like, 3 seasons old or something) but it was awesome and I was pleasantly surprised by the prices, especially the shoes – only $150! I walked out with three pairs — new short black boots since my winter boots are wrecked, these white linen wedges and these as well. The white linen wedges were a birthday gift from a friend who was there with me J. The Dotta dress is there ($129) and I tried it on but it was enormous on me.
