As the peak season approaches each year, we try to enlighten our readers with the What, Why and How of Sample Sales.
Once upon a time, designers sold their handful of sample size items at the end of the year. These are the individual pieces shown to store buyers. Some make it to full production, some do not. Typically, these are size 2, 4 or 6. That was then, this is now
Now, sample sales are BIG business and one can expect big inventory. All seasonal overstock in ALL sizes as well as those coveted one-off samples, are offered at Massive discount. This is an opportunity to buy often unaffordable clothing and accessories at very affordable prices. Or to chase down the designer names you love. or to simply shop for cool stuff. Essential to know: Must get to Sample Sale on its First day open!
In New York City, the apex of the 2017 sample sale season is November 13 to December 15.

Teens love to shop. Indeed they do. On a recent Shop Gotham program in SoHo/Nolita, 12 teens from Cleveland returned home with bags ablaze with goodies and certainly no one broke the bank or worse, angered their parents!
They commenced their day at an indoor market for young indie designers. 30 designers under one roof offer everything from leather jackets to candles.
Then on to 8 more NYC cool stores which offered selections the girls could not find at home.
Along the way, their fashionable guide regaled them with stories about the area of Soho and Nolita – once a thriving art community, shared fashion tips, helped select pieces which were just right for the season and pointed out where celebrities live.
The 3 hours concluded with special cupcakes for the honoree from a famous tv bakery
Shop Gotham Sweet 16’s are available all year round for the lucky shopper. For details, see www.shopgotham.com
