A tag sale at my offices - Prada, Escada, Ralph Lauren and more
Last Friday, we held our annual tag sale at my offices in the Starrett Lehigh building in Manhattan. What we were selling was my television wardrobe from last season. Many of these items were only worn once and are of very good quality. The idea for this sale is to offer employees a really great deal for this merchandise. The clothing was placed in bins and moved from the TV studio. At Starrett, it was arranged on long tables, organized by sweaters, blouses, pants, shoes, etc. My executive assistant, Jessica, helped me price and tag everything. The sale began at noon and as tag sales go, it was quite a scene. I was happy to see that people were very happy with their finds.
The tag sale drew quite a crowd.
These gentlemen each have an armload of clothing! I wonder who the lucky women are?
The shoes were displayed in zipper bags and priced very reasonably.
All good tag sales have a give away area. This one featured assorted yarns, fabrics, and trimmings.
The clothing was displayed neatly folded upon long tables.
Doreen Hunt and Lee Evans tallied up the sales.
Ralph Lauren jeans
A great buy on Ralph Rucci silk pants!
White Escada trousers
I can’t believe these prices!
This group of shoppers wanted free arms and stacked their finds on the floor.
Simply stated
These are the bins that the clothing was transported in.
A quick try on
This is the clerestory. As you can see, it is a wonderful space for large events. The tag sale only took up one corner of this room. On either side of the clerestory, there are busy work areas behind the scrims.
Lisa just loves this Brooks Brother’s shirt.
Tori is crazy about this bright pink Façonnable blouse.
Lynn plans on giving this silk yarn to her cousin to knit into an afghan.
