After impatiently waiting on line for about 30 minutes yesterday, we happily (as you see above) scored some great bargainst at the James Perse Sample Sale. The scene was crowded but not crazy, which was good since it was necessary to pick through each rack in search of misplaced items. Basic tees were marked at $20. The men's selection boasted a greater variety than the women's. Men had their pick of short sleeved tees in limited colors, long sleeved tees and heavier long sleeved shirts in a variety of colors, and comfy zip up hoodies.
For women, almost all of the basic tees had already been snatched up - the options that remained were mostly sample dresses, pastel tanks (a cool $15 each). There were also a wide selection of cropped cargo pants by Perse's Yosemite brand.
The bottom line: if you are looking for good deal on basic men's tops, it's worth the wait. Otherwise, you might want to save your $$ for one of the many upcoming spring sample sales! On the other hand, word is that they will be restocking, so maybe your luck will be better than ours!
The deets: 260 Fifth Avenue, through 4/21. W-F, 10am-7pm. Sat, 11am - 7pm. Sun, 11am-5pm.
Note: keep in mind that the brand sizing runs from 1-5, with 2 equating to abuot a medium.
