Most stores on Madison Avenue are officially on sale. Last week we did a rundown of some of our favorite luxury retailers and today we are adding to the designer list and adding lots of contemporary stores too. Shop away, there’s nothing like springtime in the city.
Alexander McQueen
Most clothing, shoes, bags, jewelry and accessories are discounted 40% off,. There are several colors of Heroine style bags included in the sale along with a few knuckle box clutches.
Alexis Bittar
Select lucite baubles of plenty are 30% off but some items are discounted more. If you’re looking for the items with a higher discount ask the sales person to point you in the right direction before you get hypenotized by full price items.
Alice & Olivia
The discount on most merchandise is 40% off. Take note that the designer is hosting a sample sale starting June 13–details to follow.
Cynthia Rowley
If you haven’t been to Cynthia Rowley lately, than you should. The designer is is the queen of surf and there is no place to shop that’s more Montauk friendly. Summer fashions are now discounted 30% to 50% off.
Intermix
A comprehensive selection of merchandise is discounted 40%. The designer selection is better in the store than online. Head to the back left or right to browse through the reduced merchandise. To the left, we spotted a table of shoes that included Valentino espadrilles and Fendi sandals. There appears to be an abundance of Missoni and Mugler.
John Varvatos
Guys can save 40% off most spring and summer items. Even some Ernst Benz watch styles are included in the sale. Be sure to ask a sales person to point out exactly which ones.
Joie
You can now shop for “effortlessly causual” looks for 30% off. For some reason we always find uptight-
formal to be a lot easier to style than realaxed-cool.
Maje
Most of spring fashion is discounted 20% to 30% off but online you can find some holdovers from last season at 50% off.
Milly
Lots of spring and summer styles are discounted 50% off. Unfortunately none of the kids items are reduced but we’ll keep our eyes open.
Theory
Markdowns hover around 30% online and in stores. We suggest you go for the culottes, which aren’t cut very differently than the ones you would find at Celine. The fabric, however, isn’t the same but these also cost about 90% less.
