While this week is bustling with post-Thanksgiving sample sales (here, here, here, here, and here) and Cyber Monday promos, there is an exclusive Balenciaga sample sale taking place very discreetly in the far westside of Manhattan. This bargain affair, as you might have guessed, is a closed door event meaning you'll have to show your invite to be admitted. But in case you've been good this year and have hopes for a holiday miracle, the sale is happening throughout this week so bonne chance!
Where: 542 W. 22nd St. (bet. 10th & 11th Ave.)
When: Tuesday, December 2nd through Friday, December 5th.
MizAdvice: Don't believe in miracles? No worries! You can still get a bargain from Balenciaga. The brand is currently having a private sale at their boutique and online until Thursday. RTW, shoes, and select bags are 30% off. Simply use promo code: FW14EXCLUSIVE at checkout.

which bags are included in the sale?
ReplyDeleteI was in the same building as this sale this morning and didn't even try it. I was very tempted, but it was very buttoned up, with a gentleman sitting at the curtain. Would love to hear if anyone tries it and is successful!
ReplyDeleteThe guard takes the list fairly seriously. Was fortunate to have an invite, but you're not missing much. The large cities are $499, medium $449, and smalls $399. The colors are not great at this point. RTW is priced as marked with an average 75%, but nothing phenomenal imo. No coats. Wallets are non-exisent anc whatever shoes are leftover are worn.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing!
DeleteThe code is not working online :-(
ReplyDeleteIt works. It's on RTW, shoes, and select bags. What were you looking for?
Deletehi, I went to http://www.balenciaga.com/us/women/handbags
Deleteis this the website you are talking about? thank you and muah
If you go to the official Balenciaga e-store and shop, before you checkout, use the code to see if the bags you've picked out are included. It's only for seasonal bags.
DeleteI tried last night after hitting the Tocca sale. Total fail, they were taking the list very seriously. I tried charm and friendliness and cutesy, nothing worked. I didn't care enough to try $.
ReplyDeleteI was able to go in one year, so it's do-able. The guy is tough but I think if you ask nicely and don't expect much, miracles can happen. That said, I didn't love anything enough to purchase and regret it to this day.
ReplyDeleteI tried today. But couldn't get it.
ReplyDeleteThe guy in the front door is very nice with gentle smile. But he is very strict about the list.

ReplyDeleteIt's only the seasonal bags that are included.
