The scene inside at 10:10am
Weren't there when the Mayle sample sale started this morning at 9:55am? Well, you really needn't head over now. It's too late. Within 7 minutes of opening, the racks had been picked over by the swarms of women who'd been waiting patiently outside the tiny showroom in a hot, cramped hallway. The reason for the madness: aside from the generous markdowns, we got the impression that the staff wasn't replenishing. What they had to start was it. There were plenty of frocks—gold brocade, eyelet, animal-print silk numbers—a reasonable selection of blousy tops, a box full of handbags, a small selection of pants (which no one was touching), some vintage items and a good amount of Dessous underpinnings (also relatively untouched). The prices weren't rock bottom, but paying $25 to $125 for a Mayle blouse and $175 for a dress is nothing to sniff at.
