Our Summer 50% Off Sale
Once again it's time for our twice yearly 50% off sale. Why is this sale different from other sales? First, practically everything is half off. No, the sale doesn't apply to the web store, dollar-a-pound or the transfer booth. But it does apply to everything in the main Garment District store -- and that's a huge selection of clothes, shoes & accessories. Second, there is no fuss about this sale. No gimmicks. Everything is 50% off.
Why do we do it? Because unlike most stores we completely rotate our store twice a year. Except for a few stock items such as wigs & feather boas we take everything out of the store after the sale & replace it with fresh stock that nobody but our staff has seen. To make way for these new goodies, we need to rotate out what's in the store today. Thus we have a big sale, with a huge discount.
Some people ask me -- when is the best time to shop at The Garment District? The answer is either at the sale or in the weeks right afterward. And it depends on what you want. If you want the best value then shop during the sale. Some stock items will be 1/2 off this weekend & full price next week. Items like American Apparel t-shirts (which we carry year-round) are already nearly half what you would pay at their Newbury Street store. At our sale they are another 50% off. Come in and get these items now -- why wait? But I also seriously recommend shopping after the sale. Though the prices are higher, nobody has seen these clothes. There is no presale. We just put out thousands of unique pieces overnight. The Monday after the sale can be a little chaotic, but everything is fresh and there are always great quality items.
Other than the sheer excitement of shopping at The Garment District for Halloween, this is the best time to come by. And the weather forecast this weekend is perfect for shopping -- cool & dry. Hope to see you..

We will put you on our mailing list... but the easiest way to get on the list is by this link.

We don't use the e-mail list that much. Every 50% off sale we do send out an e-mail and snail mail reminder.
Thanks
