Now that all the black-Tuesday, cyber-Sunday silliness is over, it’s time to get back to business. Officially, Thursday through Saturday, 12/6-12/8, Thom Browne is hosting a sample sale featuring, well, here‘s what readers found last fall.

The friends & family pre-sale is on Wednesday, 12/5, from 3m-7pm. To get in, you’ll need to RSVP — at rsvp@thombrowne — by 1pm on Wednesday. You’ll also be charged $25 at the door, all of which will go to the Mayor’s Fund for Hurricane Sandy.

Also, as the invite warns, “No eBay resellers permitted.”

This summer’s event, however, was not as well received.
