do you remember your first online purchase? 

AWW: In the summer of 1999, I bought 10 James Perse v-neck t-shirts on Bluefly.com in every color available.  I don't remember the cost, but they were 40% off!

why make sample sales exclusive? 

We like the idea of a private community where people who are interested in luxury and high fashion can find great deals just like many New York fashion insiders do.  Now that we also have our blog, it gives an opportunity for our members to have the behind-the-scenes action in the fashion world.

We were very excited about sponsoring the Costello Tagliapietra show during New York Fashion Week and we are even more excited about our first sale with them starting today!  They are a talented young duo who are committed to their art. They are exactly the kind of young talent we love to support and bring to all our members.  We also have some great jewelry brands coming up who have designed collections exclusively for The Gilt Groupe: Made Her Think, Citrine By the Stones and Miriam Salat.  They are all gorgeous, unique and reasonably priced collections.
