The Chloe sample sale gets underway and opens to the public today in Soho, going through this Sunday, March 10th. We attended last night’s preview but no pictures were allowed so we’ll do our best to describe what we found.
Here’s our report from Deme:
“The sale has both Chloe and it’s diffusion line See by Chloe. There is clothing, shoes, accessories and bags for both labels. I usually just come for the clothing however this year was the first year I walked away empty handed. There wasn’t nearly as much clothing as in previous years. Although they were still bring pieces up I noticed.
Plus every Chloe item I picked up, be it a blouse, dress or pair of pants was $2,000 to $3000 which means at 80% off it still will set you back $400 to $600.
Shoes seemed more reasonable as most were originally $695 plus 70% off. Beautiful summer sandals as well as boots. Be cautious of the sample boots. A woman tried on a pair in which the left heel was ~1.5” taller than the right.
There many bags but the only popular bag I noticed was Marcie (No Faye bags).” Deme

on March 6, 2019 12:25 pmIf you're going for bags the sale definitely wasn't worth it! There were two Faye bags (light bubblegum pink and desert beige python), medium Marcie crossbodies (light pink, dusty blue, and cognac), a couple quilted Drews (denim and ivory), then a few random bags here and there. Bags were only 50% off and as mentioned above you can find them at steeper discounts at normal retailers. I waited outside for 45 minutes this morning at 9am, then another 15 minutes inside to view handbags. Maybe if they lower the prices it's worth going to, but I was also told they won't be restocking bags.

on March 7, 2019 8:39 pmThe See by Chloe clothing was actually more expensive than you stated (it may have actually been the same percentage off as the Chloe line). I wanted to buy a sweater but realized at checkout that it was $117. The signage was a bit confusing but only the actual samples were $40-$60 and there weren’t that many samples to be had.
