More than 20 of the region's top clothing designers and shoe boutiques will be selling their end-of-season items for up to 90 percent off at the eighth installment of the twice-annual The District Sample Sale. Founded in fall 2006 by Mary Schmidt Amons, Shannon Haley, Liberty Jones, Barbara Martin and Jayne Sandman, the event attracts about 700 women from all over the East Coast. This season's sale will include Baltimore boutiques such as Babe of Federal Hill, Poppy and Stella in Fells Point, Urban Chic, and Sassonova in Harbor East. The charity event will benefit The GW Mammovan, a mobile digital mammogram screening service.
