Richard Chai Sample Sale

— Thu, 3rd March 2011 —

Friday though Sunday, 3/4-3/6, get to The Harbor Room at the Soho Grand for a rare Richard Chai sample sale featuring up to 90% present and past seasons’ stock. Funny that Richie decided to have a sale this season when his brother, Odin co-owner Eddy Chai, didn’t feel need to clear out his three NYC shops with a similar event.

Update: Not a huge surprise, but we just confirmed that Richie’s hosting a pre-sale tonight, 3/3, from 6pm-9pm. No word on door policies, but, per usual, act cool and you should be fine.
