About half of the sale is made up of standard undergarments, like bras and panties. As we mentioned above, many of the bras we found are soft-cup styles: we spotted lace demi bras, satin triangle bras, and sheer balconette bras, all for $50. The padded bras are limited, but include lace-lined full-coverage styles for $70 and satin demi bras with lace-up corset-style backs for $40.
A small rack in the front of the sale space holds specially-priced items; bras on this rack (again, mostly soft cup) are marked $30-$40.
We found underwear in every cut, including satin boyshorts, lace briefs, and silk high-waisted styles for $40. There’s also a table of ruffled chiffon briefs and satin thongs, that are $25 each. We also found some decidedly sexier special-occasion pieces, including leather string bikini-cut underwear and caged styles (which you can see in the gallery) for $40 each.
Aside from that, the sale offers an impressive selection of vintage-inspired lingerie, such as silk garterbelts ($40), satin corsets ($85), and bra-top slips for $140. The sizing for these range between extra small and large, with a good distribution in each size range.
There’s a small selection of ready-to-wear clothing among the lingerie, including bodycon skirts for $125 and chiffon evening gowns for $300. These are grouped with high-end loungewear, like floor-length satin robes ($200) and lace-trimmed rompers for $125.
Oddly enough, our favorite part of this sale was the selection of casual brushed-cotton loungewear, which are toward the back. Expect to find soft, oversized tees for $50, tie-waist shorts for $60, and cropped muscle tanks for $30, There is also a rack of leggings, which range in price from $50-$125 (the pricier ones are super-soft cashmere).
The bottom line: the discounts are unbelievably good, relatively speaking, but because the original prices are so high, you’ll still be paying a premium—and mostly for things that aren’t fit for everyday. There’s a communal fitting room, and the staff notified us that they’ll be restocking what they can, but there will likely be no further discounts.
