Giorgio Armani Et Al. Sample Sale

Officially, Thursday through Saturday, 11/19-11/21, Metropolitan Pavilion is hosting an Armani sample sale extravaganza featuring up to 80% off clothing and accessories (yes, that means shoes) from Giorgio Armani, Armani Collezioni, Emporio Armani, and Armani Jeans. Credit cards only; no cash. And no, Armani Exchange will not be missed.

Update: A tipster with an invite says the VIP pre-sale preview runs from 12pm until 3pm on Thursday. No word yet on security.

Update 2: Most likely, says one reader, "Staff will be checking the list at the door with a significant amount of vigilance" for the VIP preview.

  3. Not sure if I'm using the Twitter right, so...

    I was at Barneys last night, and the sale is mostly on, especially on Co-op. 40% off a lot of stuff. They said APC would just be a one day sale for Thursday, otherwise the markdowns will stick. Band of Outsiders won't be marked down until after Thanksgiving.

  4. Thanks, Anon, we retweeted your tweet but don't think the've worked all of the kinks out of the feature.

  5. CB: I posted that first comment and sadly have no idea if there's a password or anyway to defeat the list. Was put on the list by a friend at Armani myself. The way she worded it intimates the staff will be checking the list at the door with a significant amount of vigilance.
