No one seemed to be enforcing that rule. My kid just turned 9. I told him he was 12 for the day. There was a woman with a baby behind us. Not sure if they turned her away. I don’t think so. There is no room for strollers inside though, so if you come with a baby, be sure to wear them!
What was the shoe selection like? Have been thinking of getting a pair of Oran and was wondering if they had any out today? Thanks!!

They do have Oran. No gold, black, or white.

Some printed, some lizard and croc, some two toned (silver and dark silver). I think if you’re looking for shoes you will be happy.

Lots of sizes and lots of styles. You can ask a SA to find you a size and they will go look in back.

I tried these two but passed IMG_3653.jpg
 
Hello ladies & gents. I was fortunate to meet a fellow TPF member at the sale this early morning. He got there a little more an hour before I did, around 6:10 am. There was maybe 40 people ahead of him at that time. But when I got there, around 7:37 am, the line was really long.

We were the 3rd or 4th group of 10 to get in (if you were the 10th person and had just 1 friend with you, the security guard would just let you and your friend get in). We got in around 10:10 am or so. Left around 11:44 am. Just wanted to make sure we looked at everything before leaving.

It was well organized inside and appreciated the air conditioning! Plenty of scarves, limit of 7. Very little twills. This guy ahead of me snatched up the last 2 as I was trying to get them for my new TPF friend. Plenty of bracelets (limit 2 Clic H), longest wait, but wasn't too bad. Lots of RTW (I think 60% off) with 3 dressing rooms. No ties or belts. And no time limit. A good amount of hats and gloves across from the registers. Also some swimsuits

I saw 1 young child, must have been under 12. Poor kid looked bored:( but if you have to bring your child, I guess consider lying about the age if under 12.

Please note that there are no restrooms here.

An employee told us they will be replenish all weekend long.

It may be best to get there really early so you have the best picks of things. It seems like they will only restock at the end of the day, getting ready for the next day's sale.

Good luck every one and look forward to seeing all of your goodies

Someone said the capacity inside was 85 people. And they were only letting people in as others were leaving, which is why the wait was taking so incredibly long. When I left which was about two hours ago I would say they were about 350 people, maybe 400 in line.


Wow, 85 seems awfully small! This past Jan in Paris the line jammed to a halt for about 1.5 hours to wait for some shoppers to leave. I get it, but man is that frustrating!!

I agree, 85 is sooooo small! But Ugh, 1.5 hour wait with no progress is intensely frustrating, too. At least they’d dribble in two or three people at a time with us, which seems like some progress is being made.

Finally tried on Tyger. I’m so in love! Please excuse no lipstick. I had to shower away the grimy day before I could try it on.

Here’s the tyger side:

There’s a restroom, it’s at the opposite end of the parking lot under a green entryway. Also a coffee shop and juicery there.

I had friends who got there much earlier than me. I got there at 7:45. Did not think it was fair to join them since I arrived later. That would essentially be line cutting, imo.
 
A note for shoppers tomorrow. Orans and boots have their own sections apart from other footwear. Ladies, when looking at shoes from RTW, Orans are to the far right, boots in back and all other shoes to the left - all segregated by size. Good luck!

My focus was RTW and I found some great silk blouses and a kaftan. Very happy!

This is beautiful on you!
 
How much was the line stander? I didn’t see any line cutting in my area.

I got there around 7:45 and didn’t get in until 12:30 maybe... It was brutal this time because I brought DS. He finally had a meltdown as we got inside. I spent 15 min in there, 10 trying to calm him down and left with a Tyger tyger csgm and a siesta at paradise in fuchsia. Happy with these but, sigh, I learned my lesson. Will not bring him again next time.

Wow, almost five hours before getting in, Glad you found some goodies.
