When thieves broke into high-end fur designer Dennis Basso’s Madison Avenue store on Christmas Eve, they may have pulled off the “largest fur heist” in NYC history, stealing millions of dollars worth.
Basso, a favorite of many Upper East Side ladies, including Paris and Nicky Hilton, told Page Six of the thieves, “They knew what they were looking for. They broke down the door to my Madison Avenue store at 5 a.m. on Christmas Eve and took only the most expensive sable coats. It could be the largest fur heist in the city of New York.”
