My wife and her friends use to love this place but when the economy went south they all stopped shopping for anything, anywhere.

Years ago, I had a friend who worked at a Loehman’s store. She’d call me and tell me to “get right over here” when something came in she thought I’d like. One day it was a floor-length Paco Rabani vest woven from plastic discs, $2200 original price tag, Stunning, honest it was. Looked great on me, but where would anyone wear it? Passed it up at $25. She thought I was nuts.

I still have a couple of 25-yr-old silk blouses I bought there, excellent quality that I can’t buy at any price today. Maybe you can but I can’t.

I loved Loehman’s. Designer clothes at deep deep discounts, what was not to love?

R.I.P.
