    Posted in Own This City, Shopping by Rachel LeWinter on November 19th, 2009 at 2:41 pm

    steven-alan-shirtsSteven Alan
    Line up for scads of stylish garb and accessories at this hip chainlet’s legendary bargainfest. Get there early if you want to score Steven Alan’s cotton button-downs, now $55 to $65 (instead of $148 to $168). Also up for grabs are discounted threads from Sophomore, Demylee, Spring and Clifton and Relwen. 87 Franklin St between Broadway and Church St (212-219-3305). Subway: 1 to Franklin St. Thu 19, Fri 20 8:30am–8pm; Sat 21 noon–7pm; Sun 22 noon–5pm.

    inhabitInhabit
    Winter is more bearable when you’re wrapped in cozy cashmere. Women can keep warm in cashmere hoodies, slashed from $644 to $80, and men can stock up on classic cashmere crews for $80 (usually $368). 1441 Broadway between 40th and 41st Sts, 24th floor (inhabitny.com).

    Ali Ro
    Summer may be over, but you can still wear Ali Ro’s femme frocks underneath your winter layers. Pick up printed silk sheaths, whittled from $275 to $80; metallic dresses for $80 (down from $450); and fitted styles with lace-and-zipper detailing, chopped from $388 to $80. 530 Seventh Ave at 39th St, 14th floor (212-575-2550).

    Araks
    Designer Araks Yeramyan is unloading her organic cotton lingerie and sexy swimsuits for up to 80 percent off. Cotton chemises are $90 (were $275), camis with tulle trim are cut from $160 to $40, and swim sets are $40 (originally $228). Arrive early to hit up a $10 bin, packed with hugely marked-down bras, lingerie and more. 137 Grand St between Crosby and Lafayette Sts, fifth floor (212-982-5652).

    Christian Lacroix
    In May, iconic designer Christian Lacroix filed for bankruptcy protection, and while the future of the brand is uncertain, one thing is for sure: You should snap up this high-end garb while you still can. Jersey cap-sleeve tops are marked down from $1,155 to $289, wool-and-silk striped jackets are $439 (instead of $1,755), and knit cardigans are cut from $360 to $90. 260 Fifth Ave between 28th and 29th Sts (212-725-5400).

    Gryphon + Haute Hippie
    Two sales are better than one, so hit up this blowout for hip threads—all offered at wholesale (and below!) prices. Gryphon sequin skirts are tagged $170 (were $345), and tie-dye jersey tees are pared from $290 to $145. Haute Hippie tiered silk ruffle dresses are reduced from $395 to $200, and skinny zip-up pants are $160 (formerly $325). 261 W 36th St between Seventh and Eighth Aves, second floor (212-947-8748). Subway: A, C, E, 1, 2, 3 to 34th St–Penn Station. Thu 19 11am-7pm.

    Rubin Chapelle
    Designers Sonja Rubin and Kip Chapelle count Sarah Jessica Parker, Gwyneth Paltrow and Sienna Miller as devotees, but you don’t have to be famous to own some of their covetable garb, now up to 70 percent off. Wool tunics are $350 (formerly $850), A-line skirts are reduced from $420 to $120, and feminine blouses are clipped from $495 to $95. 410 W 14th St between Ninth Ave and Washington St (212-647-8636).
