There was a pair of lizard orans in a peachy pink colour going for £1kSuper nice . By any chance did you look at 38/38.5 selection? If any exotics ?
noFor the Arlettie managed - am I allowed to take someone with me?
Same here.How am I going to wait until Thursday? I'm dying
Thank you for this! I'm going on Wednesday morning, and plan on heading straight for the shoes 🤩They weren’t enforcing one-way, I definitely went back and forth between sections a lot!
I'm literally obsessed with the bright blue shearling orans, and am still kicking myself for not buying them before!I am here now @Chenai - they have some velvet oran and some with the stitched beading, as well as the fluffy & shearling versions. However simple leather I saw none. The selections at the larger sizes for RTW (42/44) and shoes (40/41) are small. They do have some nice looking loafers in the smaller men’s sizes, as well as plenty of men’s Izmir, if that interests you.
Today when I went they let me free roam back and forth until my time slot had about 20mins left. Then they looked at my wristband and started telling me I was only able to go one way (towards the exit). I was happy with that, I felt like I had enough time to see everything I wanted.Thank you for this! I'm going on Wednesday morning, and plan on heading straight for the shoes 🤩
I have returned! Minus my budget and all semblance of being a good decision maker and responsible adult.
Let me preface this by saying the whole process was much more calm and civilised than I expected! Staff were very helpful and friendly. I think the layout flowed nicely.
My gameplan was to head to men’s footwear first, do a quick but clean sweep and move onto women’s shoes. Then head on over to silks and accessories. Then maybe loop back to men’s rtw and women’s rtw.
This started out fine, then I lost myself and just started wandering aimlessly back and forth through the sections 😂
Sadly, hubby is EU43 in shoes and they had nothing of interest - there were nice espadrilles but only in size 40. I did ask if they had other sizes and the kind staff member spent about 10 mins looking through all the boxes and nothing. He said they have been very popular and must have sold out yesterday in the more common sizes.
Women’s shoes for size 36.5 / 37 had an okay selection - lots of Oran in velvet or with embellishment. A few boot styles but nothing of note! I noticed some nice loafers but I think they were in smaller sizes (35/35.5) and there were a few ladies who had commandeered them already! For smaller ladies the selection of Oran was pretty good. I didn’t really look but I think 37.5 and bigger was a bit slim pickings.
Silks were.. okay? I’m not a huge silk or scarf lover so I glossed over that section save for a little browse of twillys.
Accessories section - the belts were all but done and the buckles too. Some hats were available. Those little orange bag charms were readily available when I was there.
Jewellery - nice selection for both men and women! The colours were a little too bright and, well, colourful for my liking. Not much in the way of earrings and necklaces.
Homeware was definitely slim pickings for me. A couple of nice blankets still left but only if it goes with your interiors (which it definitely didn’t for me).

Inventory was good but previous years were better for rtw and shoes with more generous limits! Lots of orans available and saw lots being taken out of stock room intermittently. Keep asking SAs for sizes if can't find on the floor. I asked a few SAs at different times to look and one actually found the size I wanted in the stock room!
Had to queue about 30 mins to get items checked before paying at cashier. Water and benches are available whilst queueing.
