To Hunting We Shall Go

If you like the thrill of bargain hunting for designer duds, then you will have a blast at Villa Moda's outlet store at AlManshar, Fahaheel next to Al Kout Mall. I only found out about it recently (that it was turned into VM's warehouse). Women, Men, and Kids brands were up to 80% off. Marni, Prada, Gucci, Fendi, Rue du Mail, Thakoon, Peter Som, Juicy, Bottega, Dolce & Gabanna.. and much more. You will everything from evening gowns and cocktail dresses, to formal wear, casual chis items/denim, and accessories.

Now THIS is a collector's item. This is a beautiful in stand-out shape outdoor coat for people watching at a ski resort, or marching down fifth avenue in November (you get my drift) by Moncler from it's Gamme Rouge A/W 2008 collection designed by none other than the mind-blowing creative brain of Giambattista Valli. Was KD 1,621, and now it's priced at KD 324.

Here's another Moncler/Giambattista Valli creation. Was KD 726, and now it's priced at KD 145.

Light wool Marni Jacket in shades of grey is an investment pieces that you will wear for years to come. It was priced at KD 607 and now it's only KD 121.

Now this is a beeeeaautiiiful strapless black and hot pink evening gown by Roksanda Ilincic. Was KD 975 and now it's almost KD 190. Just look at the detail of the back of the dress.

Don't get turned off by the crowded racks and long lines of stacked clothes, you really need to pull up your sleeves and dig in deep to find real gems.

Now this is what I call a Boot Camp!

I found this cute LBD by a brand called OHNE TITLE. It has a charming structured ruching from the back (plain from the front) and you won't believe it's price! KD 61 ONLY! I swear! And it's from the S/S 2008 collection. It was priced at KD 404. Not bad at all!
