Escada has gone through a rough patch in the not-too-distant past(circa-2008) but with a new design team they look positioned to return in full force. Since the general public isn’t currently fawning over Escada(perhaps there aren’t enough logos plastered all over the clothing), you have an opportunity to seek out some of the outgoing season items at a very attractive price. When we were last in Vegas(a few weeks ago) my wife picked up a few things. I was pleasantly surprised at the value for money here. You can see and feel the quality, especially in the Escada Couture collection. Also for people who carry an interest in fragrance — it’s worth knowing that Escada has recently launched a new women’s fragrance called ‘Especially Escada’ that is worth a sniff. Nice bottle design.
