A fellow Mizhattanite kindly informed me that there is a private Balenciaga sample sale currently happening at their corporate office in Chelsea. Apparently, there is a nice assortment of RTW, shoes, handbags, and accessories from pre & post Alexander Wang. The sale has been happening since early this week but there is no word on whether anyone was able to sneak in without an invite. Nonetheless, for those feeling brave enough, the address is below.
Where: 542 W. 22nd St. (bet. 10th & 11th Ave.), 2nd Floor.

Really???!!!
ReplyDeleteI never heard they have sample before. Do you know what time close today and when this sale end?
ReplyDeletethank you
It closes at 5. Don't know when it ends. I think tomorrow.
DeleteWow. If anyone is able to get in today, please let us all know. TIA
ReplyDeleteYes, I want an update too if anyone gets in.
ReplyDeleteI've gone without an invite but not to this one. They have a list at the door and I've seen people get turned away. I always go in with a nice jacket over gym clothes and ask nicely (I almost expect a no but usually get a yes). The great pieces were greatly discounted but still very expensive. I walked away from buying a jacket I had been coveting because it was 3k(from 10k). I still think about it but had spent a fortune that month. There were deals to be had but nothing I wanted in that area. I say try and just ask nicely, can't hurt.
ReplyDeletetried and failed lol
ReplyDeleteI guess I will not even try then. Might as well save some money for the summer. haha
Deletealso, the outlet at woodbury gets the same items. if you do go there, some of the staff can be snotty esp. j+sse (just saying). but they do have leathers, cocoons, shearlings during the season for a lot less than the sample sale.
ReplyDeletewas just in line -- the girl in front of me was begggggging to be let in and she was flat out denied. almost embarrassed for her, she was really trying. if youre not on the list, not gonna happen for this one!! shame i wanted to shop today!!
ReplyDeletedon't beg! and make sure no one is around when you ask. that's my secret.
ReplyDeletei miss this private sale
