Maybe you can get a leather jacket after all? After we checked out The Kooples' sample sale preview last night, Racked reporter Gemma Kim scoped out the scene this morning just before the doors opened and only found about three dozen shoppers waiting to get inside just before 9am, and all filed in promptly when the doors opened. For your best chance of scooping up silk tops and mod miniskirts, head in before the lunch crowds. See the full sale hours below.

Tuesday, April 7th through Saturday, April 12th. Tue 9am—8pm, Wed—Thu 10am—8pm, Fri—Sat 10am—7pm, Sun 10am—4pm.
