After yesterday's Mayle debacle, it was hard to muster up the energy to visit another sample sale. And yet, the Archetype Showroomevent called. Located on an unpleasant stretch of Broadway near NYU, Archetype's offering up a decent selection of women's clothing and your typical, smallish area of men's items. While the place was humming yesterday afternoon, that picked-over feeling had yet to descend.
Label:Archetype Showroom Deal:Below wholesale prices on clothing and accessories from brands like Lorick, Black Sheep & Prodigal Sons, Digby & Iona and Samantha Pleet When/Where:Thursday, April 24th through Saturday, April 26th. Daily 10am—7pm. 676 Broadway between Bond and Great Jones Sts, second floor (212-529-1407).
