The Gilt Groupe is a daily luxury sample sale featuring top brands sourced directly from the designer, and sold at a huge discount. Beyond just men's and women's clothes, Gilt also features items for kids, home decor, and accessories.
I joined a couple weeks ago and have been following the lines, and a simple way to sum it up is 'Bloomingdales'. Most of the stuff on the site is targeting late 20-somethings and up, with a taste for a higher price point, more muted, 'grown up' styles, but who still appreciate more youthful trends from time to time.
For example, while mainly sticking to more established designers like Marc Jacobs, Roberto Cavalli, etc, they also pepper in items from Converse by John Varvatos, Alife, and Rich & Skinny. It's a pretty good mix for those of us (un)lucky enough to have matured beyond our college years.
All sales take place only on www.gilt.com and our full collection of merchandise is always available at the start of the sale, so be sure to log on early.
To introduce each brand, our designer bios and reels give you a preview of upcoming sales, must-have pieces and featured designers.
But doesn't the quote above say "invite only"? No worries, we got you covered :-)
