I got the loafer satin from Barneys...around 550? (need to check)
But I am not sure if the patent tall boots are on sale or not. I just got them 2 weeks ago full priced.

I think that they are marked down at BNY, but they are qutie picked over - most of the small sizes are gone already, and size 36 is quite large compared with other brands' size 36. I don't think that the shoes are marked down yet.The bags are marked down. To be honest with you, I think that the bags are lovely but they were overpriced at the first place...

A French 36 = a 4 US

Some conversion charts will tell you it equals a 6, though I've generally found it closer to a 4 from experience.

^in the case of Rochas, I think that it's more like Marc Jacobs' size 4 and Balenciaga's size 38.

DESIGNER DISCOUNT: The irony. Notorious for its vertiginous price tags, Rochas, whose clothing business is in the process of being shuttered by owner Procter & Gamble, is to be the focus of a massive sale in Paris of past couture, ready-to-wear and accessories collections starting Jan. 25. The four-day event, which is to be held at the former Rochas couture atelier on Rue Nollet, will mainly feature pieces from the Olivier Theyskens and Peter O'Brien eras, with prices lopped up to 80 percent off boutique prices. "Certain major U.S. clients have been granted early access," said Véronique Masson, who along with her twin sister, Valerie, organized the sale. The pair is scouting a partner to hold a second sale in New York. Certain sought-after pieces, however, such as the gray bird-on-a-wire column worn by Kirsten Dunst at the Cannes Film Festival last year, are being offered to museums, said Stéphane Lemonnier, finance and administration manager.
