| - Love Scoop NYC! It was my first time, but I was drawn in by the sharply-dressed window mannequins. They carry several luxury pieces, like Herve Leger, to middle brands like Alice + Olivia and Theory, to very reasonably-priced items made in Europe of names I've never heard of. The availability of designer denim is great: Rag and Bone, Mother, Habitat, etc. Scoop NYC also has a terrific sales selection: on Monday, they had 50% off the SALE price, which I hoarded several clothes in my size to try on. Strangely enough, I didn't find any good sale clothes and actually left the store with a pair of full-priced Mother jeans. Oh well!
The guy who assisted me, Jason, was awesome. He had the right amount of attentiveness I look for: not overboard that you'd find at neighboring Carolina Herrera, but way more than The Gap or similar. Not that he couldn't help with personal shopping, but I just didn't request it. Jason installed me in a spacious dressing room with a heavy curtain and decent lighting. He checked up on me periodically and was just overall laid back and not pushy, but appeared to be an efficient worker as he made the rounds greeting shoppers and re-organizing the displays and working the registers. He found me stuff in other sizes and showed me everything that was on sale, along with some stuff hidden away in hard-to-see displays.
The store is a good size with a large selection, of which I was pleased with the overall style of the stuff they sell. And the shopping bag he gave me is super sturdy and can definitely be re-used! If you're on the first floor of The Forum Shops and don't have a Scoop NYC back home, be sure to drop in!
