Most presales have already ended and discounts are now widely available up and down the avenue. Last week we looked for presale bargains at some of our favorite Madison Avenue boutiques and this week we are bringing you more, more, more. Tis’ the season!!!
Bally
Bally usually takes a more conservative approach to markdown season with a 20% to 25% cut. This year, Bally fans will be happy to learn that the sale ranges from 30% to 40%. Sale merchandise includes, select shoes, handbags, accessories and clothing.

Brunello Cucinelli
Most people aren’t thinking of sweaters during the first week of June but then most cashmere isn’t Cucinelli. The boutique started their sale on June 1st with a 40% discount. Since their sample sale is offering a 60% cut and runs through Friday, June 8th we would suggest scoping that merchandise first.
Sample Sale: 150 E. 58th St. (bet. Lexington & 3rd Ave.), 3rd Floor. 9am – 5pm
Maria (in store): 212-813-0900
Calvin Klein Collection
Minimalist fans can now save 40% on pre-spring handbags, shoes and clothing. There are sine exclusions including, some scarves, bags and the new lingerie and sleepwear line. We expect the discount to increases to 60% within the next few weeks.

Celine
Starting Thursday, June 7th the haute Celine will discount ready-to-wear a cool 40% off retail. Covetable accessories will be marked down 30%. While the popular luggage totes will not be part of the discounted merchandise, there will be a few seasonal style handbags included.

Emilio Pucci
Spring and summer sale merchandise is discounted 40% and is selling out quickly. Many styles and sizes are running low in the clothing section. For now, swimwear is excluded. No large scarves are discounted, although some 90×90 scarves from past collections are sale along with small leather goods. We are told that there won’t be a second markdown.
Yoku: 212-230-1135
Loro Piana
Light wear cashmere silk blends will be on sale starting June 22. The markdown has not been decided but we be surprised if the discount was 40%. Summer scarves are usually available, although no heavy cashmere will be included.
Charmane: 212-980-7961
Max Mara
The Max Mara sale officially starts June 7. The markdown is 30% off everything from the spring and collection. Private sale customers already took a big bite from the sale merchandise and stock is dwindling. Women who wear size 6s and 8s will have the most from which to choose.
Fernando: 212-879-6100
Nicole Miller
Early spring dresses, sportswear, gowns and accessories are now 70% off retail–including some of their seasonal metallic ruched dresses. Full season summer clothing is only 30% but there will be further markdowns soon.

Reed Krakoff
Spring and summer clothing and shoes are 40% off retail while seasonal colored handbags are at a 30% discount. This sale is expected to go through July and there should be second cut towards July 4th. Although Reed is best known for his bags and accessories we are always big fans of his ready-to-wear collections. Don’t be afraid to check it out.
Jarvis: 212-988-0560
Roberto Cavalli
This season’s sale just stared on June 1, so expect to find plenty of their sexy flowing dresses and swimsuits for a 40% discount. This may go up depending on what Italy decides to do – although with their economic woes, we wouldn’t be surprised to hear about a second markdown soon.
