In college, I loved looking through the racks here with friends on a rainy day. It was like our own movie montage dress-up moment. It's fun to browse, but beware that the clerks a bit snotty.
Buying is another story. The quality of the clothing has gone done over the years and it's more difficult to find high-end brands. For the lower-end stuff, you can do better with the Macy's sale racks or at Goodwill. The prices here are high all around in fact--you can do way better on the 70s/80s items at any nearly vintage shop in New York or on eBay or Etsy.
