After 2011’s melee at the Salvatore Ferragamo warehouse sample sale in Secaucus; many thought the Italian fashion label would never have another public sample sale. Well, they say good things come to those who wait, and earlier this week Ferragmao quietly held an exclusive sample sale at Ceuntry 21’s downtown location.
The sale mostly consisted of Spring / Summer 2013 and some 2012 merchandise, but who cares! This is SF we’re talking about here! Prices were unbelievably good and rivaled those at Woodbury Commons. All clothing was 80% off retail plus an additional 25% off. Bags and shoes were as marked with an additional 25% off. The Dorato Kamelia Python bag (Org. $3,950) was $199 plus an additional 25%, and the Beck camera bag (Org. $1,790 at Neiman Marcus), was $99 with an extra 25% off.
The first floor boasted a bevy for women’s clothing and accessories from dresses, to gowns, and even furs. Shoes for both men and women were on the second floor; as well as a decent men’s section that had ties, belts, and ready to wear.
Update: Bags and shoes were as marked with an additional 50% off on the last day!
