It’s still early in the fall season but we are just starting to see the scheduling of some very interesting sample sales. Here are a few that we will be sure to watch and suggest you consider doing the same:

Pierre Balmain
Wednesday, October 9th through Sunday, October 13th. 10am~6pm
20 W. 36th St. (bet. 5th & 6th Ave.), 6th Floor
Not to be confused with the uber expensive Balmain, Pierre Balmain is more of a diffusion line. The collection consists of more $600 dresses rather than $6000 dresses from the haute line. Prices are promoted as up to 70% off of retail but we’ll have to see just how much hits that high note before officially giving this sale a thumbs up.

At the last sale, sterling silver jewelry and bangles were 30% off. The 18K collection and yellow gold and silver assortment were discounted steeper at 40% and 50% respectively. The watch selection was quite limited, but all timepieces were 50% off retail.
