As usual European OVBD outlet is not in the city center. RETAIL other centers in Italy, for example, and all submitted 100 km from the city limits. However, to reach them, say, an hour (or even less), there is no difficulty. In the context of territorial gigantism Moscow Russia's first outlet settled near its borders, only some 3 km from Moscow, in the picturesque Kotelniki among industrial zones and cherished local marginals wastelands. However, to reach a place of X have still not too less than an hour, and even on the chaise. For a trip to the White Outlet garden is best to have your own transportation. At least, when you come to go out late at night and find that the promised on the website of the Outlet Village shuttle to the subway is no longer runs a few weeks, you do not have to like me, to pass a life-threatening quest "reach the nearest highway with minibuses on the head not met on the way no semkozhuya in Abibas ".
Generally, the contrast of all that happens inside and outside the thick walls and high fences that prudently enclosed outlet, amazing. Village with all its arches, colored fountains, wrought iron signs and lights, curly colored facades and tiled purely visually looks like some oasis of beauty and European style in the midst of post-apocalyptic Kotelnikov. By the way, there is nothing authentically Russian, and the architecture of this village sales very strongly reminiscent of the same Milan Serravalle Outlet.

Make of artificially created market town local landmark owners OVBD happened. Still, people go to a distance autletnuyu not care that stare at Europe in Russia, and to buy good things so cheap (in this, in fact, the whole point of outlets). And it is here that I caught up with disappointment. First, more than half of the shops are a tightly closed doors and banners "Coming soon! ". Now buyers are several already democratic prices stores underwear, shoes and clothing. Therefore, it is not clear why go after them in the area.
Remarkably, the entire line of sports Major (Adidas, Puma, Reebok, etc.) are working here in full force. It seems that this is such a focus on the local contingent. Thin marketing move, by the way. Like, give Gopnik in our walls, and there, staring, and they shall behold the beautiful people around and will also join the beautiful! At least until I chose Adidas running shoes for jogging, it is gratifying to hear a question from a young man: "Girl, and tell me what shoes look better on me." And nothing that both shoes look on it as a rural galoshes. The man asks, wants to meet the fashion and style, and it's damn commendable.
What nepohvalno in Outlet Village, so it is absolutely incomprehensible pricing. Traditionally, the European Outlet minimum (!) Discount on all items - 30%. So the landlord obligation links all stores in its territory in the form of the contract. In Russia, this practice is apparently no. Discount on things last season, and often last year (why outlet looks more runoff than the outlet) in the best case reaches 10%. Though usually at the price tag the old price crossed out and write new already discounted. In Outlet Village with prices tags hang with no visible edits. It makes you wonder what discounts and not at all. As an example, in the case of Lacoste or perfume in L'Etoile, where prices seem especially crazy for Outlet. In such a situation, indeed, much cheaper to buy a ticket to Milan and back, and there have certainly purchased at sales. But there are good (in fact legitimate by all the rules outlets) finds. Nice to tickle the eye prices in Levi's, Bosco, Joymiss. In any case, even in the truncated part of the shops to find something worthwhile there is a chance. My wardrobe, for example, was left without me so hot favorite dresses, and my friend found a decent snowboard boots for funny money.
Despite the ubiquitous phobia big crowds on weekends, here is worth it to go for the weekend. As they say themselves sellers, new consignments are imported into an outlet on a regular basis towards the end of the week. Therefore, profit anything is possible these days. Yet until December I go there more than a foot. At the very least, have to wait for the opening of all conceived arsenal of brands, including many Laksheri-brands, for which it is worth to go into hostile Kotelniki.
And there, as argued in November already open Vnukovo Outlet Village, and in March - Outlet Fashion House Moscow. Oh, start living! Well, the curtain of motivational videos on the subject of why to buy things in the outlet is not only shameful, but right.
