Before I tell you what, exactly, you should buy from MyTheresa’s once-a-season sale, I’m going to tell you why, exactly, you might not have heard of MyTheresa—or encountered its legitimately elite assortment of luxury designers.
I’m what some folks have charitably called a ‘brand snob’. I’m not entirely proud of the moniker, but I don’t shy away from it, either—I like nice clothes, sue me. I’ve worked as a stylist for a long time, and for the most part, my taste skews capital-D Designer and capital-F Fashion, with a capital-P Price tag to match. I swear by a $10 Uniqlo tee as much as the next guy (unless the next guy is that one dude buying them in bulk from GQ), but that’s the exception, not the rule. And therein lies the rub.
My taste is constrained by my budget, and while the former has evolved in leaps and bounds, the latter has struggled (read: failed miserably) to keep pace. Here’s the silver lining: that incongruity has forced me to become a self-taught sales savant—a maestro of markdowns, a diva of discounts, a Beethoven of bargains. Deal-hunting isn’t simply an elite sport in which I’m the reigning world champ—it’s the only way my Busch Light budget can keep up with my bubbly taste.
Which brings us to the reason we’re here: MyTheresa’s Designer Sale, the Super Bowl of shopping for the fashion fans who know about it. The German retail powerhouse built its reputation on an unparalleled assortment of exactly the type of capital-D Designer brands I gravitate towards, but what sets it apart are the exclusive products it stocks, from labels like uptown-guy mainstay Loro Piana to downtown-guy stalwart Miu Miu.
So when MyTheresa officially launched its end-of-season sale this week, I sprung into action. Over 4,000 SKUs, up to 40% off—to lesser shoppers, the sheer volume would’ve been daunting. Reader, I was not daunted in the slightest. But because you might be, I decided to share the gift of my genius this time around via a tight curation of 11 pieces I’m eyeing. From here on out, my Busch Light brothers, we’re drinking only bubbly.
