RUDE RUDE RUDE

Just read some of the reviews on this store, and compared to the reviews on the store on 5th. They said that the one on 5th is much friendlier.

The snotty treatment that I received from the SOHO store was due to bad management to hire these unqualified staff I suppose. The manager couldn't even tell a real Prada. He took a look at my purse and said it's not real and feels funny (yah right, Barneys sold me a fake), until I showed him the Authenticity Card and it checked out fine. After that then he offered help - with "whatevah" kind of attitude. Why do they all think they're better than all of us just because they work there?

• Pros: Cool looking store
• Cons: 3 out of 4 staff are, rude, rude, rude

Prada has Alotta

This store has been defined as "a new approach to consumerism." It is certainly very hard to locate for your first visit, since there is no markings anywhere on the building that note what store it is. The layout is very confusing and easy to get lost in, which isn't always a bad thing. Half of their stock is not on the floor, as one must ask for a specific piece by name. Not good for browsing, and dissapointing unless you ask. It is not usually crowded in the morning/early afternoon. They have a pretty nice selection of goods and seems to be more like an exhibit at a strange museum. I had to remind myself that it was a store and that it was ok to touch. Anyway you should at least check it out once just for fun!

• Pros: corner location, large selection, plenty of space
• Cons: price, unattentive staff, maze like store

Ugh! How rude can you possibly get?

So we all know we make way more than any of the salestaff does, but they still think they're God's Gift to Fashion. Great stock as always, very innovative layout, and a convenient location, and once you get past the attitudes of the employees that NEED the employee discount to actually sport the clothes, it's a great experience!

• Pros: variety of stock, quality
• Cons: rude, overcrowded
