    Well, the website is fashiondistrict.it/inglese/s... First, you take a train from Termini in Rome to Valmontone. See www.trenitalia.com . There is a train about once an hour (during the week at least), and the trip takes about 35-45 minutes. There is a pop-up box (only in Italian) that explains a bus service that runs on Saturday and Sunday starting July 1st. On Saturday and Sunday, a bus leaves the train station for the district at 14:20 and 15:25. On Saturday, a bus leaves the district at 18:35 and 19:35, while on Sunday, a bus leaves for the station at 18:20 and 20:00. The fashion district website does make a reference to a coming station inside the district (if I'm reading that right), but maybe someone closer will have better info. Oh, I was assuming that you didn't have a car; if you do, there are directions on the website... Bill

    Hi, May I ask what about this Fashion District outlet? They sell out-of-season clothes and stuff? Is different from Department Store? Thanks.

    Well, having never been there, I can only go by the website (fashiondistrict.it/inglese/s.... If you look at the text that scrolls by in the middle of the page, you'll notice that you can click on the headlines. Juding by what they've written there, it looks like more a collection of high-end stuff rather than department store stuff. Bill
