I called FF earlier today. The sale is no longer effective, but there will be another one in late August. I better start saving up.

I didn't ask. They did say that they'll give a longer notice next time.

I was just in NY for a week and I went to about 5 boutiques including the famous friends sale and here are my thoughts.

First off, the famous friends sale was nothing special, for starters it was in this tiny space next store and all they had were some rogan t-shirts and some bad washed version nudies. As far, as the normal store, I wasn't that impressed either, in terms of denim they had acne, atelier durance, levi's, and rogan which is nothing you cant find anywhere else. And in terms of t-shirts they had some 65 dollar tee's that were printed on American Apparel.

I am not going to go over a play by play of each store because I went to a lot, I will just say my favorite was definitly the rogues gallery section of the Earnest Sewn Cut and Sew store and the Jean Shop was pretty cool. Other then that I was pretty disapointed by Odin, Atrium and Steven Alan. But, I guess if I was in the market for jeans I would have been more impressed.

I also checked out the Nudie booth at the Project show and it seems like they are doing some new colored raw for the fall.

i too, was disappointed with steven alan lately. which sucks because that used to be one of my favorites. it seems to have swayed more towards being a women's wear store.
