We weren’t expecting designer fashion to hit the markdown circuit for at least another week. Barneys has surprised us all and is the first retailer to offer discounts on a small assortment of designer collections for men, women and kids. What’s even more surprising is that many items are reduced 40% and 50% off, including shoes.
At first glance we thought that most brands would be excluded from the markdown but, boy, were we mistaken. Among the sale assortment we found items from Erdem, Lanvin, Saint Laurent and Aquazzura.
Some highlights include these Aquazzura denim pumps that are $270 from $675, a pleated midi-skirt from Gauchera that’s $650 from $1300, an Erdem trench that’s $$2760 from $4600 and a pink and white striped shirtdress from Jourden that’s $330 from $550.
This sale is quite small and we will still have to wait a few more weeks to get the full serving of markdowns. For now, this is a good start to the weekend.
