I was there today around noon and here are my main thoughts:
- valet parking ($22) was a nightmare... took me about 20-30 minutes just waiting, they don't have enough people... try to find street or lot parking if you can
- I arrived about 50-60 minutes prior to my time slot. After the valet situation, I only had about 30 minutes left, and I was already close to the back of the line... they started letting us in at the start of the time slot
- small bags you can bring in (I had an LV mini pochette and that was fine), bigger bags have to be checked into like a coat check situation, so I wouldn't trust leaving really nice things there
- I did see people wearing Hermes bags, shoes, etc... and did not seem to be an issue
- men's RTW and shoe selection was good, and not busy - this was the first area you walked into
- then women's shoes - sizes 34-36 had the best selection, larger sizes were hit or miss depending what you wanted
- next was women's RTW - lots of options, again smaller sizes 34-38 were more plentiful. Lots of cold weather stuff like cashmere, coats, sweaters, leather, etc
- line to try on clothes in the fitting area can get long
- next was silks and shawls, large selection of silks, less cashmere shawls
- next fashion jewelry and home goods, not too much selection
RTW 60% off
All others 50% off
Limit 6 pairs of shoes
Limit 2 earrings
Not sure what other limits were. Did not really focus on silk scarves and just quickly walked past the men's section.
Overall was run very smoothly and I think the 2 hours was good time... they didn't kick you out at 2 hours on the dot but you probably won't need more time than that anyway.
I hope everyone finds something they love! I left with 4 pieces which I'm very happy with! I really tried to focus on items I know I will use and wear, and not just get for the sake of being on sale.
- silver sparkly Orans 36
- hot pink beach top and shorts set size 36/38
- earrings

You're welcome!
Yes, no clic clacs but other enamels, bangles, leather ones like Be Hapi, aluminum CDCs in multiple colors
I do not recall but I was not looking specifically for this
Valet parking is seamless today, much easier than trying to find parking. Waiting to get in. There’s no shade so you might want a hat and sunglasses.
I went yesterday morning and second everything @carlinha reported. I'll add that there were a lot of hats in both the men's and women's sections, and the scarves were plentiful - just not across all styles and colors. If anyone's looking for baby items there is a small selection in the last room next to housewares. Jewelry selection was limited but they did have a few of the ear cuffs, a couple of double Rivale bracelets in black box, and an assortment of bangles, earrings, and pendants.
The blue and red jungle love collection was predominant in RTW, but I did manage to find a teal t-shirt dress (I saw more of them in white) and a caftan. Longer items were on two dedicated racks, one for smaller sizes and one for larger, but check both just in case. I also found a few pairs of shoes, although not the black Egerie flip flops I had on my list (I did see a lot of the blue version, mostly size 38).
Shoes were well organized and the staff made every effort to be helpful. The gentleman assisting my husband was determined to help him find a pair he loved and he succeeded: my husband went home with a pair of sneakers (plus a reversible Edison hat and a lightweight knit scarf). I also appreciated the friendly associate who helped me navigate the scarf room.
As mentioned previously nobody explicitly told us to leave, but security started hovering more noticeably toward the end of the time slot. Keep an eye out at the seating area in the housewares section (in the last room), that's where shoppers tend to review their purchases and discard any items they change their minds about - I saw a woman discover a pair of shoes in her size that had been left by another shopper.
Valet parking started off okay in the morning when there were only arrivals, but by the time we left around noon it was chaos as people were both coming and going by then. Hopefully they've worked out the kinks today but we just parked on the street a few blocks away. When we left my husband went to get the car while I waited out front with the bags.
Happy shopping to everyone going this week, I hope you have some good treasure hunting!

I wonder what criteria they used for the invite as I have been a client of the Miami store for over 25 years and shop regularly and did not receive the invite. My SA told me it was from corporate.
