Luxe legend Proenza Schouler may have set up shop on the UES (the brand's very first NYC shop, we might add), but this week, the action is very much in a downtown state of mind. The brand, with a cult-like following of cool girls from all corners of the globe, will be putting on yet another brilliant sample sale — meaning you could own a piece of fashion history for as little as 20 bucks (seriously!).
Lazaro and Jack are marking down their spring '12 collection, past season samples, and even one-of-a-kind pieces (think tops, dresses, and shoes). The festivities kick off tomorrow morning (set your alarms now!), so get there early to beat out all the other discount-hungry, leather-obsessed New Yorkers (aka all of us). We can't promise you'll be able to score that snakeskin PS1 for less than a single paycheck, but hey, it never hurts to try.
When: Tuesday, August 28 and Wednesday, August 29, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Where: 82 Mercer Street (between Spring and Broome streets); no phone.
