At IF Boutique Sale

In this bust economy, we've become pretty spoiled will all the extended liquidation-like sales around town. In that context, the IF sample sale might seem overpriced, but it's actually stocked with some very nice pieces at reasonable prices. Through Saturday, you'll find the above Comme des Garcons jacket for $400, along with:
A strong showing from Dries Van Noten, including this peacoat for just $350
Dries jackets for just $200
Dries knits for $100
And a select few Martin Margiela pieces, like this wool suit for $650
Like these Margiela boots for about $600, the footwear is still very pricey.

IF Boutique - 94 Grand St between Mercer & Greene - 212-334-4964 - 11am-7pm daily - Map

  6. Still about 5 racks of stuff available (about 4 of them wearable)...Mostly Margiela, Dries, Veronique Branquinho, Demeulemeester with some truly unsettling Comme pieces thrown in the mix...sizes are in the 50-52 range primarily (perfect for me!)...some good deals (blazers) and some not so good deals (pretty much everything else)...

    Sale goes on til Sunday afternoon...TCB: what's the likelihood of IF dropping prices further on the last dying hours of their sale...I asked one of the taciturn employees there and she seemed to suggest the 70% was it...

  7. Size 48s are less likely than further markdowns, we'd say, but we encourage both of you to simply call the number provided to get clear answers to your questions..
