Hi hun, sorry im new just signed up here after doing some research about the Hermes sales.
May I ask where did you register please? I registered to Arlettie on Thursday, but didn't see anything about hermes sale or received nothing. Hope you were able to find a few things.

finally got photos of all items! I tried to put them on to better show how they look and tried to save them as collage so it wouldn’t overflow the page!

The first scarf (cashmere in orange / red / grey) is actually very nice in person but I feel bad I can’t capture its beauty … the same as the leather jacket… it feels so much nicer in person!

For those who wonder about the “s stamp” on the scarf - see the photo I took at the right top corner of the last collage, hope it helps. I think they are instructed to put it around the tag, and depend on the design of the scarf it can be more obvious or nearly invisible.

Details as follow (not expert in scarves' name btw!)
Scarf #1 - Etole 70x175 (in red, orange and grey) - GBP 470 (50% off)
Scarf #2 - Cashmere 140 x 140 Chale GBP 450 (50% off)
Scarf #3 - Maxi twilly slim (discontinued size) Mors a Jouets Chemise GBP 118 (50% off)
[note: I am a big fan of maxi twilly so really happy with this one! not many options though]
Scarf #4 - 90cm Mountain Zebra in Noir / Marron / Blanc GBP 185 (50% off)
Scarf #5 - 70cm Marble Silk (only one in the entire stock I was told) GBP 390 (50% off)
[note: I think it is a bit pricy as this marble silk doesn't have the details like those bees on the recent one? but half price and limited edition so I was worried I would regret if I don't get it!]
Scarf #6 - 90cm Baobab Cat in Blanc / Bleu / Jaune - GBP 185 (50% off) this is so gorgeous I love the colour!!
Scarf #7 - 90cm Flowers of South Africa (Vert & Rose) GBP 185 (50% off)
Scarf #8 - 90cm Carre in bordeau / vert / bleu roy GBP 185 (50% off) - originally I wasn't liking the polka dot but the details of the silk really got me...not sure if if there are other colour!
Scarf ring - there were this one in silver and gold colour, GBP 95 (50% off)

Shoes #1 - Mules femme blink GBP 340 (50% off)
Shoes #2 - Addict sneaker (love the silver details!) GBP 335 (50% off)

RTW #1 - the leather jacket was 70% off at GBP 2403 from GBP 8010 (I was really hoping to find a coat but couldn't find any cashmere and the staff very kindly help me find this leather jacket in my size...hope I won't regret!!)
RTW #2 - Manteau Cashmere poste et cavalerie GBP724 from 1810 (60% off)
(I like this one a lot, think can be quite season friendly and I can wear a lot!)

hope these info are helpful!!

Hi hun I'm new, quick question I registered 3 days ago to Arlettie hoping I would be lucky to receive an invite. Was I too late? Also whe I go on their website and look under brands, I don't see Hermes. Are you getting the same thing? Would appreciate your help. Thks

The sale finished today actually so you’ll need to wait til the next sale hun. Hermes sale doenst show up on their website. It was a save the date email then the registration link directly to your inbox. To receive the emails you just need to be Arlettie member at the time the first email is sent out I believe.

I don’t know how true it is but my SA told me that less Arlettie members were being invited because of the number of resellers that attended last sale plus I was told they wanted the sale to be more H client friendly

Thanks everyone for sharing your beautiful finds! I wasn’t able to get anything this time. I was looking for some resort pieces but the silk shirt I really liked when saw it in the boutique, had some massive foundation mark all over the collar. I decided not to take the risk as I wasn’t sure that my dry cleaners will be able to remove it without damaging the fabric. The shoes selection was very scarce. I’m trying to shop more sustainably and only buy something I absolutely love and if it fits my wardrobe esthetic. Last year was a mess and even though I managed to get two pairs of shoes, I spent hours cruising the shoe section, competing with the resellers. Some girl had loads of Orans and asked me to buy some for her with my card so she wouldn’t go above the quota. Unfortunately, they were not my sizes otherwise I would have bought them for her and keep them This year the experience was very very positive but nothing sparked joy. I’m happy I went nevertheless.

Oh, interesting, I am an Arlettie invite so I guess I got lucky this year! If you dont mind asking, how much do those here with invites directly from H, whats your expenditure like to get that invite? I am not really a focused buyer, i.e. I buy abroad on holiday, etc and dont really have a SA since the store reshuffle at Selfridges.

Just found the Crystal Galuchat Oasis I was eyeing at the sale on VC for £790!!! It was £290 at the sale

Its so annoying to find shoes you are after on resellers profiles!

We should share our knowledge of sale prices and publish then here! and only offer the resellers 10% markup for their efforts

The sneaker femme avantage i bought was £310 and mules femme beauty £325.

I would say it’s not a question of expenditure but a genuine love for the brand, buying what you love and not just a tactical purchase to try and score something else. Everyone’s expenditure will be different so probably a little personal thing to ask.

What irks me is the denial that they’re from a sale (see her comment), when clearly there are the sale stamps on the boxes on two of her listings:

- http://www.vestiairecollective.com/...r-leather-oasis-hermes-sandals-26289803.shtml

Wow the audacity. I know that reputable consignment stores don’t take stamped sale items but Vestiare don’t care I guess.

This is going off-topic, but VC is definitely not very reputable. A replica handbag managed to get to me after they’ve done their “checks” (the hardware were screwed on, which was the most obvious sign of a fake. I sent it back, of course)

I really wish there was a way to report resellers. Wasn’t there a case that Hermes filed against a reseller ring at some point?

Going back to the topic of sample sale, so we reckon that it’s going to always be around September? I am already plotting out my maternity leave I am guessing though that once baby is here, I will probably have different priorities.

You got an invite via Arlettie
You were able to attend.
Many even long term H clients didn't get to go.

Appreciate the reply. Reading your answer, I do now regret asking TPF members. Was just looking to get a gauge if its to all H clients on the mailing list or big spenders, that was the crux of my qn.
In an outside-looking-in sort of way, always wondered what sort of expenditure gets one Camelia status for instance or invites to private H events, etc. I do love the merchandise generally, but at my income level, not all items that I do admire are easily available to me. Somehow feeling slightly shamed this Sunday evening, but here we are....First world problems anyhow.
Anyway, back to topic, loving all who shared their sales haul and thanks for letting me share too!
