SAMPLE CIRCUIT: GANT, Mara Hoffman & Brunello Cucinelli Lead This Week's Sales

The steady stream of spring sample sales flows on as shoppers lined up today on Houston Street to gain entry to MARA HOFFMAN's sale this morning in SoHo. They will likely be swarming through the weekend as the increasingly popular contemporary designer draws them in. Here are some highlights for the rest of the week's offerings:

There was less of a line outside the GANT sale a block away, this morning. While the sale will be running through the weekend, the brand's more conservative direction over the past few seasons may have cooled the demand among sample sale shoppers. The prices are very good, but, as has been the case these days with Gant, the majority of the offerings are actual samples, so the size ranges for most items is very limited.

In last minute additions, popular luxury designer BRUNELLO CUCINELLI will be holding a seasonal sale through Friday in Midtown. Expect major reductions on designer apparel for men and women including cashmere knitwear, with the caveat that deep discounts on wildly expensive clothes still leave some wildly expensive prices.

Over at Clothingline in the Garment District, the recent R13 sale is getting a three day continuation alongside CP COMPANY and EFM menswear among other labels.

For the whole family, AUTUMN CASHMERE will be opening its showroom through Friday featuring Men's Women's and Kids' collections for Spring 2018 at deep discounts.
