DEFCON *1*

If you catch one sale this week… If you leave the apartment for one chore… If you need one reason to keep on living… make it the Paul Stuart sale on 38th & 7th where you'll find the best deals on the highest quality suits and jackets we’ve perhaps ever seen this side of the Pacific Rim.

Until Friday, suits that cost well over $2,000 are all going for $300, ties that retail for $150 are going for $25, and, best of all, jackets, many of which normally cost $2,000 themselves, are now selling for a paltry $200.

Better deals than Barneys Warehouse sale? By leaps and bounds -- not to mention a far more tranquil and organized shopping experience. And, if for some reason you’re not familiar with the quality and cut of Paul Stuart’s wares, they make Brooks Brothers’ stuff look like the Men’s Warehouse house label.

***Update*** A kind tipster brings word that the traditional pieces, like the two pictured directly below, are dwindling, leaving only wilder patterns and pastels. You've been warned.

  1. IF looking like Tucker Carlson is your style... I've only gone into the store on Madison once to get my grandpa a silk scarf, but it left a lasting impression on me-- that of a Republican's dressing room.

  2. I'm no republican, but I know what a smart classic suit looks.. and so does Paul Stuart. I don't think women understand the idea of real quality.

  3. There's really no need for off-the-cuff misogynist comments like that. As someone who paid $500 for a scarf as a gift to her grandfather, I whole-heartedly agree that Paul Stuart uses sumptuous fabrics with excellent worksmanship. Their huge selection of kooky bowties gave me the heebie-jeebies is all.
