Update about
this:
I haven't been able to make it out to the city since
these days. Today, I had to go to lower Manhattan, and by chance I was near
Century 21, I found a Calvin Klein
100% cashmere coat $995 value, priced at $469. Unlike all the other coats in the showroom, this one had a red round color coded sticker, so I took it to the register and, lo and behold, it was down to $165!
The guy from the floor kept on telling me how lucky I was because all the sale items were not supposed to be on the floor anymore and this one slipped away..
Final price after tax, $179.09.
Now comes the caveat: It's a size higher than mine so its big on me and needs to be taken in, but for that price, I'm ready to spend even $100 to tailor it if needed.
I guess now the question is, who knows a good tailor that will do a job on a coat? Preferably in CH..
