ReplyDeleteYou don't need an invite. You can just walk in to shop.
DeleteYou don't need an invite but make sure to look confident. Act like you're a VIP and they'll treat you like one.
DeleteWhat about bottega veneta
ReplyDeleteDetails on the Bottega Veneta sale will be published today.
Deletedo you just go to any store and get discounted?
ReplyDeleteYes

ReplyDeleteBergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdale's, Barneys, and Saks start pre-selling this week.
DeleteWhat about Gucci?
ReplyDeleteNo word yet. I will definitely let you know.
DeleteThx!!! Is it in-store only ? I check online every few days and I don't see anything.
DeleteIn the past, they allowed customers to shop the pre-sale online. I don't know when it'll happen again this year. I will make sure to write an article.
DeleteAny word on 3.1 Philip Lim?
ReplyDeleteIt will be in early June. When I know the exact start date, I'll update this article or write a comment below.
DeleteThanks for the roundup Miz!
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure. Happy shopping!
Deleteprada?
ReplyDeleteThe private sale (by appointment) starts on May 22nd. Public sale starts on 28th. 30% off leather goods. 40% off on RTW and shoes.
DeleteIs it 30% off all leather goods or just certain ones? I've been saving for my first prada bag and am trying to figure out if now is the time to strike or to wait for an upcoming trip to Italy. Do any ladies have any advice on this? TIA!
DeleteAre the dates the same for all of the mens stores as well?
ReplyDeleteYes they are.
Deletemil gracias!
Deletewhat about Givenchy?
ReplyDeleteGivenchy doesn't have a boutique in NYC. You can shop the label at Barneys, Bergdorf, or Saks.
DeleteSo, can i go to shops, and then i can ask them to get the discount? Can I know how many percent discount can i get?
DeleteYes. As Givenchy doesn't have NYC boutique, your best bet is to go to one of the department stores during their end-of-season sale.
Deletecan i have some info on fendi? Will they have bags on sale? Thanx
ReplyDeleteOnly seasonal bags will be on sale.
DeleteHi, so bags from the s/s 14 will be on sale? Do you know if the 2jours petit bag with the bug face will be on sale? Thanks so much
DeleteDolce is actually 50% off for SS items including some black lace dress. Just got myselfvne today. Mcqueen sales only applicable to all apparel and non black handbags. I got the metal plate Heroine in black in full price :( Jimmy choo SS shoes are 30% off but you have to be on their list - I did :). after today i will be couple $$$$ poorer...Happy shopping everyone!
ReplyDeleteHi do you know if any private or are sales are happening in short hills; NJ?
ReplyDeletethanks
This list of boutique sales isn't specific to the NYC area. It's for all stores in the US. So, Short Hills is included.
DeleteHi, do you know what items will be included in the sales? Will there be any Sac de jours in the Saint Laurent sale?
ReplyDeleteSorry but I don't have specifics. You will need to call your local Saint Laurent boutique to find out.
DeleteI WOULD LO VE TO KNOE TOO,
DeleteSorry to disappoint, Sac de Jours are excluded.
DeleteHi, do you think buying bags in mid june will be too late? Will there still be stock? TIA
ReplyDeleteIt depends on which label and what specific bag you're interested in. The usual rule of thumb is to buy during the first week of a sale.
DeleteDO YOU KNOW IF Saint Laurent WOULD HAVE BAGS FOR SALE?
ReplyDeleteYes, bags are on sale now.
DeleteDoes Louboutin have a sale? Thanks for the roundup and all the wonderful work you do Miz! You are a (shopping)life saver!! <3
ReplyDeleteYou can shop discounted Louboutins at department store pre-sales right now. As for their boutique sale, it will be later this month.
DeleteThanks for the heads up! Just one more question: do you recommend heading to the department stores now or wait for the boutique sale? (which has the better prices?)
DeleteThanks again!
Personally, I prefer shopping at boutiques than department stores. Shoes are usually discounted 40% off at boutiques while department stores are 30%. Also, Louboutin's department store pre-sale begins this Tuesday. Sorry for the confusion.
DeleteThank you soooo much!! Please don't be sorry, I'm the one who's sorry for all the questions...
DeletePlease keep us posted on the Louboutin store sale!
Will any ferragamo store start the sale on June 12th? or only participating locations? Thx!
ReplyDeleteAll of Ferragamo's US boutiques will start the sale on the 12th.
DeleteIs it better to go to these sales or wait till department stores (Saks, BG, or Bloomingdales) have their sales?
ReplyDeleteIt really depends. Since department stores and boutiques have different selections of merchandise and offerings, it's hard to say where to shop first.
