Date: February 4th, 2012 6:55 PM Author: Ultramarine Factory Reset Button it;s not for "poors" per se, it's just that in terms of high net worth clientelle and quality of collections, it ranks lower. nordstrom is routinely excluded from distributions from top designers. fuck you cant even get louboutins from fucking nordstrom (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1865211&forum_id=2#19896024) |

Date: February 4th, 2012 7:02 PM Author: Grizzly swashbuckling trust fund Nope.
Norstrom carries things like Lucky and Vigoss that you don't see at Saks. And as someone pointed out below, they don't carry a lot of the really high end lines. |

Saks' selection has actually moved somewhat downmarket in the last few years, although it's probably still better than Nordstrom. |

I'm a Philadelphian of a not terribly rich background; all our lives my family's shopped at bloomingdale's, which I guess is probably a bit above our means/my law school indebtedness. anyway once I mentioned bloomingdale's to a very sweet, but rather rich, girl from dallas, and she said that, where she was from at least (she was trying to be polite), bloomingdale's was really ghetto. only neiman marcus was acceptable there, she said (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1865211&forum_id=2#19904779) |

Date: February 10th, 2012 12:02 PM Author: chocolate concupiscible hall cuckoldry Someone please educate me on these so-called department stores. I have never set foot in one in my time in NYC so I have no fucking clue other than knowing chicks who buy shit at bergdorf's. Which are top tier, etc?
I have my suits and shirts made to measure, my shoes I get from Allen Edmonds, ties from the Hermes or Ferragamo stores. Casual wear from Filson, Orvis, Barbour, RL or BB. If I go to these department stores would any of these brands be sold at a decent price? what is the allure of these places?
