It's almost sale season for luxury brands, so I wanted to give you a heads up on the upcoming Gucci store sale. This year, the Italian fashion house's spring markdowns will get underway tomorrow, May 18th. Shoppers will be allowed to pre-shop the discounted offerings starting that day at the company's boutiques as well as their department store outlets. Discounts will vary between 30% and 50%, depending on the item, and the selection will include handbags, shoes, apparel, and accessories. What's surprising and disappointing about this year's Gucci sale is that Alessandro Michele-designed handbags like Dionysus, Sylvie, or GG Marmont will be excluded. Instead, there will be older classics like Soho Discos and Swing totes. As for the brand's online sale, it should kick off sometime later this week. I will make sure to update this article when it begins.
UPDATE (5/22): The online sale is now live! Shop from the comfort of your home/office by using this special link.

Mizhattan I was totally disappointed when a Gucci boutique employee informed me that the private sale was by invite only for high spending customers only. I am also getting conflicting dates as to when the sale starts for the general public. The sale last year was better.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear the employee acted in such a difficult manner with you. Usually, SAs are kind and pragmatic enough to allow anyone to shop the pre-sale. I hope you shrug this off as a one time thing and enjoy a better shopping experience in the future.
Deletesorry about your experience. I was in Neiman Marcus of King of Prussia today. Sales people were actually inviting people to Gucci sale.
DeleteMiz Any idea if online private sale for Gucci will start before the weekend? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSorry, there is no word yet :(
DeleteFYI, I tried my sale link from last year and it is working, so you can shop sale online right now!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd the invite officially went out, so happy shopping!
