SAMPLE CIRCUIT: It's Super Sale Tuesday With Rag & Bone vs. Paul Smith, Elie Saab vs. Marchesa & More

It's a cavalcade of designers going head to head with sample sales today and for the rest of the week. Let's dive in while the merchandise is fresh.

TUESDAY MAY 15
This is one busy Tuesday with several big draws opening all at the same time. Our friends at 260SampleSale have set heavy hitters RAG & BONE at 260 Fifth Avenue and PAUL SMITH on Wooster Street against each other through the rest of the week. The Paul Smith preview had the anticipated bounty of product, especially in shoes, but the Rag & Bone selection was noticeably slimmer that what we have come to expect from that label —unless there is more merchandise coming in. They both have 6 days of business to fill.
On a more extravagant level, couturiers, ELIE SAAB at Soiffer Haskin and MARCHESA at Shelly & Renée will be competing for luxe eveningwear shoppers with high budgets even at sample sale prices.
Also opening on Tuesday, contemporary designers VERONICA BEARD, HILTON HOLLIS, and NANETTE LEPORE along with luxe cildrenswear from BONPOINT.

WEDNESDAY MAY 16
Designer sneaker fanatics will be lining up on Greene Street near Houston Street for the BUSCEMI sale for men and women. Get there early.
Denim-heads can expect savings of up to 75% off at the DL 1961 sale in the Garment District for two days.

THURSDAY MAY 17
Look for an enthusiastic crowd as THE NEWS showroom begins its three day sale in SoHo featuring COMMON PROJECTS, TIM COPPENS, OFFICINE GÉNÉRALE among several other directional international labels.
Up in Chelsea, fashion veteran KIMORA LEE SIMMONS opens her showroom for 2 days to offer savings on her elegant signature collection.
Cult denim and sportswear label R13 will also be attracting a motivated following for its 4-day sale in SoHo.

SUNDAY MAY 20
Finally, you can cap off the weekend by dressing your bed in sumptuous sheets from Italian label FRETTE. Bath linens, Gifts and other Accessories will also be included through Wednesday.
