Sample Sale Report: Matt Bernson

The Matt Bernson sample sale is now in Nolita. After wandering through the perilously confusing streets of Tribeca last time around, I was relieved not to get lost this time around. The space is small but well lit with plenty of windows offering natural light and most thankfully air conditioning which is so necessary on a day like this. The designer himself is by the door and cheerfully being introduced by friends to sample sale goers.

Boxes and boxes of shoes are present from sizes 6-10 although half sizes weren't as common, there were still a few. Shoes start at $50 and top out at $70 and the prices are indicated on each pair by a color coded sticker. Staffers in their bright yellow shirts are cheery and ready to help find sizes. Although there were no size 5s at the sale, Staffers happily pulled a few options that ran small and a couple of them could work for a size 5. The sale wasn't overly crowded but there was a steady flow of traffic.

If you are not looking for shoes studded bracelets are $15 each or 2 for $20.  There are a few striped beach totes on the wall for $40.  If you are looking for shoes you'll find plenty of signature sandals, stacked heel boots and even a few neon loafers.
