New York Sample Sales: Week of October 20th
Many of you have asked for details on the upcoming New York City Sample Sales. With any sample sale, be prepared to wait in line (it could be several hours). Many sample sales also have purchasing limits as well as strict no photography rules. Enjoy!
MANOLO BLAHNIK SAMPLE SALE
HOURS: Thursday, October 24th 2019, 11:00am to 4:00pm
Open to Public
LOCATION: The Warwick Hotel, 54th Street and 6th Avenue, 2nd Floor, New York, 10019
*From what I’ve heard, this sale is best for people looking for small and large sizes. Occasionally, you can find the popular styles but don’t bet on all styles being available.
HERMES SAMPLE SALE
HOURS: Thursday, October 24th- Sunday, October 27th 9:00AM to 7:00PM
Open to Public
LOCATION: Soiffer Haskin, 317 West 33rd Street, New York, 10001
*People start lining up in the wee small hours of the morning. The Hermes sample sales vary in terms of the types of items that they offer. I’ve never attended one, but often times the popular colors are not available. Their VIP event (invite only on Wednesday) tends to take the best selection!

The most important thing to remember is that just because something is a good price, doesn’t mean you should buy it if you don’t love it! I’ve seen fantastic finds at sample sales but I’ve also seen strange colors and styles, so be sure you love what you’re buying!
