So, about today's sales, Comme/H&M is INSANITY; the Swiss watch sale is unremarkable; and the Mike & Chris sale might not even exist. The News showroom, meanwhile, is now hosting what might be, dare we say, the perfect little sample sale: Easy access to an expansive loft filled with surprisingly well-made Cheap Monday jeans for $10 (!), and outerwear -- like this cozy grey parka -- for just $100; and -- the real story here -- a nice little selection of Shipley & Halmos F/W priced at wholesale!
