Saks OFF 5th Opens in Eastchester

There’s finally some good news for shoppers in Scarsdale, with the opening of a second Saks OFF 5th store in our area. This new location, in the lower level of the former Lord and Taylors, appears to be a hybrid of a Saks designer discount store and a venue for lower priced merchandise purchased expressly for the location. So though you will find racks of discounted designer items, you’ll also see fresh merchandise available in all sizes.

In other words, it’s a mixture of a treasure hunt for luxury items and a traditional venue for moderately priced formal wear, dresses, shorts, bathing suits, leisure wear, lingerie, menswear, cosmetics, watches, jewelry, children’s clothing, shoes and more handpicked for Saks OFF 5th shoppers. Chief Merchant Molly Taylor explained that a dedicated buying group for Sake OFF 5th has sourced 500 new brands and new designers to offer core elements in every size surrounded by the sizzle of designer finds.

The store is filled with summer merchandise, ready to be worn now.

On Wednesday night July 13 the. store held an opening with champagne, hors d-oeuvres and a DJ, and beginning today, July 14 the store is officially open. Remember to drive around to the back parking lot to enter on the lower level.

Will this mean that the Sake OFF 5th on Route 119 will close? Apparently not. It remains open. And what of the rumor that We Work is also opening at that location in the Vernon Hills Shopping Center? No one seemed to be able to confirm or deny that news, but there doesn’t seem to be much activity upstairs for now.
