>> This is a London-specific post… I've been wading through a batch of sample sale invitations and thought it best to collate it all into one place on Google Calendar so that it will be useful for everyone. Here is the link to the Sample Sale calendar so that you can see all the details. I've added all the ones that I know about but if you have any more to add, let me know here so I can add it in. If you use iCal, you can add all the dates by clicking here. It gets more useful when you click over to December to see the chug of sample sale traffic that include Christopher Kane, Erdem and Peter Jensen. Where there are multiple labels being sold at the sales, I've added Facebook events and website links so you can check out the full details. In particular, I'll be posting about the Onedayshop and Circus 11 closer to the time but they're definitely larger scale shopping events rather than bogstandard sample sales.
Just a heads up here, on 17th December, I'll be selling my old clothes and stuff at Circus 11 in a similar fashion to the Yard Sale I had last summer. Except, it's not gonna be outdoors and there'll be a ton of other designers there as well as mulled wine and all that jazz. It's going to be a mini landfill of clothing…

2011-11-29 at 2:38 PMSo thoughtful of you 🙂 I often find myself wondering whether I am missing out on some sample sale or the other when sitting at home. Although its probably for the best that I’m in Hong Kong at the moment as I might have done my wallet some damage at that Emma Cook sale…
Such good memories of your yard sale 🙂 I just re-watched the video my sister made of the day and am craving that delicious satay already… It’s up on my blog here http://www.geisharock.com/2010/09/susie-bubble-blogger-yard-sale-video.html

2011-11-29 at 4:09 PMDo you know what the sample prices for things generally are? Do any of the McQueen things go lower than £500? I haven’t been to anything like this before but they look great!

2011-11-29 at 6:51 PMYeah of course you can!! You’ll find dresses for around the £400-500 mark….
It really depends but with £500, you definitely have enough to play with….

2011-11-30 at 12:34 PMThank you so much for posting this! How cheap can you normally get things for though (the Emma Cook sale for example)? I’m on a shoestring budget!

2011-11-30 at 3:30 PMEmma Cook has a £15 bargain bin but most things are under £100 I think…
