At the new Manhattan outpost of Galeries Lafayette, the French department-store chain, the shelves are stocked with French designers' second collections as well as more moderately priced labels such as Chantal Thomass and Lolita Lempicka. Bloomingdale's senior vice president Kal Ruttenstein reports that sales of the store's bridge lines are running 28% ahead of last year.
