I cannot recall exactly, though there were a fair amount of jackets. I was thumbing through the pieces but was in a hurry. They have a new(ish) section in men's sportswear that contains some surprising racks -- it'd been a while since I'd been in.

The best SA at the location's name is Ellen, 703.761.1121

Last time I was at the Tysons Nordstrom was in November. I'm pretty sure they had Lanvin then, too.

Tell me about it man. I turned onto that street and bursted out laughing the second I could see the line extending up the block. I yelled out of my window in Spanish while bouncing my palm up and down "You're all nuts"

Forgot to mention - when I was in town last week, I found out that Asylum is selling the first floor and will only operate in the basement after that. Sad face for dirty vegan weekend brunch.

I have lived in Adams Morgan for nearly seven years. I have never set foot in Asylum. Give me Bourbon, Bedrock Billiards, The Reef, or The Black Squirrel.

asylum was good last summer when they had the monthly Shorts party. I went to neimans once to buy a pair of Villebrequin just for that party. it was awesome. the girls were great (read easy) too.
