Only The Brave

Cold weather and a bum economy couldn't keep the crowds from turning out early for the Martin Margiela / Dsquared2 sale going on today and tomorrow. No lines, because this crowd is mostly expert sample shoppers and industry types. No steals, either: Coats - $500-$700; Jackets and Suits - $400-$600; Knits - $150-$350; and a smattering of shoes for about $300 - 
Diesel HQ - 220 W 19th St between 7th & 8th - 11 fl - 10am-7pm daily - 646-613-8457 - Map

  2. All items are only 20 percent of their original retail value. Hopefully they will lower their prices tomorrow.

  3. all that sh*t was so LAME.
    Century 21 has better selection and prices at the start of each season. Has anyone EVER found anything at a Diesel or Staff International sale that was decent or a bargain???

  4. And Margiela isn't made that well anymore to merit the outrageous prices.
    Old Margiela was quality - the past 3-5 years most of the pieces are really cheaply constructed. And the shoes suck - He used to have such great shoes.

  5. Anon, If the rumors are true, Margiela plans to stop designing completely.
