Have any fall nuptials on your social calendar? Head to Reformation sale section, the celeb-beloved brand frequently spotted on the likes of Taylor Swift and Katie Holmes, which is holding a very rare sale right now. Sale items are up to 70% off, and there are still a few gems in the mix—including this puff-sleeve number (now under $100!) and the perfect cut-off jorts to pair with oversized sweaters as we fade into fall.
Like every year, Madewell’s Labor Day sale is a doozy. Select fall pieces (like an on-trend crescent bag) are 25% off, while sale styles are an extra 40% off and certain denim (including the fall-friendly pair of jeans below) is an additional 50% off. Stock up on now, then start daydreaming about apple orchards and pumpkin spice lattes.
Abercrombie’s glow-up has made it one of our favorite places to shop, and its current deal is too good to pass up—15% off nearly everything, plus 20% off all NFL merchandise. With cute sweatshirts and on-trend barrel jeans up for grabs, we’re tempted to do some damage.
J.Crew’s classic clothes hit especially well in the fall, so stock up now: You’ll get up to 40% off sitewide, including preppy cardigans and wide-leg jeans. Plus, select sale styles are an extra 60% off—so no matter what you’re looking for, you’ll probably find it at a major discount.
Nordstrom’s end-of-summer sale isn’t messing around; you’ll find new markdowns and limited-time offers on so many designer goodies, including a delicate Farm Rio dress and a Longchamp tote in the perfect color for fall. (And that’s not even mentioning the great deals on beauty and men’s fashion.) Take a dive into the virtual aisles and see what else you come up with.
Autumnal gems are heavily discounted at Nordstrom Rack, where Free People jackets are literally the cheapest we’ve ever seen them—under $35!—and Ugg slippers will set you back way less than usual. Comfort and warmth are paramount for the season ahead, so we suggest you hop to it before these deals disappear for good.
If you’re an Athleta regular, you know the brand’s sales are few and far between, meaning they hit especially hard when they pop up. And thanks to Labor Day, the brand is in the middle of one right now: 25% off fall pieces like long-sleeve shirts and office-friendly pants. Catch us in these comfy, high-performance styles all season long.
There’s always a sale (or a million) happening at Amazon, but the retailer is pulling out all the stops for the end of summer. Right now you can snag Black Friday–worthy gems like the perfect pullover sweater in pumpkin-spice orange and a designer tote bag from Marc Jacobs (!!!) to start transitioning your summer wardrobe to fall.
Uniqlo, the master of well-made basics, is sending off summer with limited-time deals on a few transitional, office-ready staples, including striped cardigans and wide-leg trousers. Your fall wardrobe could use such versatile pieces at arm’s reach.
Aerie’s loungewear is the stuff of legends, and it’s only getting more covetable as we head into fall. Thankfully, the brand’s sweatshirts and black leggings—along with nearly everything else—are up to 70% off ahead of the new season. Go, go, go!
Another holiday weekend, another Zappos sale. The site’s Labor Day markdowns are as deep as 60% off, with steals to be had on supremely trendy studded flats and classic T-shirts that’ll pull your fall capsule wardrobe together.
In true Anthropologie fashion, sale styles are an additional 40% off through the long weekend. This discount usually leads to some eye-popping prices, and that holds true with this fall-ready blouse (now under $50) and this puff-sleeve dress (now just $60). Look through the rest of the site and you’ll find countless more gems on super-sale.
Jenni Kayne’s well-made basics almost never go on sale, but the brand’s entire site is 20% off for Labor Day—time to act if you’ve ever been curious about its beloved knits and basics. This duo of fall sweaters is a great place to start.
Oh, Old Navy, please never change. The brand is always holding a promotion or two, but it’s pulling out all the stops for the holiday weekend, with up to 60% so many transitional staples. For example, this entire outfit will run you less than $45 total.
Gap’s Labor Day deal is one for the ages: up to 60% off everything, including new arrivals. Hop on this ribbed tee that’ll get endless mileage in the months ahead and this classic trench that’ll complement jeans and dresses—but check out the rest of the site to make sure you’re not missing anything.
We’ve long been obsessed with Mango’s work-ready basics, which put chic spins on the wardrobe essentials you’re already wearing. Now, when you spend at least $220, it’s all 30% off with free shipping when you use code EXTRA30 at checkout. We suggest you snap these gorgeous up before our editors do.
Hello, 25% off sitewide! Everlane’s basics are reasonably priced even when they’re not on sale, so you know what to do when they’re marked down. Fall jackets and on-trend jeans will form the backbones of so many outfits in the season ahead.
Glamour readers are obsessed with Lunya’s washable silk pajamas and robes, which are as much as 70% off in honor of the long weekend. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the brand or have yet to experience its soft, luxurious threads, we suggest investing while they’re cheaper than usual.
Kate Spade knows how to throw a great sale—just peep its Labor Day promotion. Sale styles are now an additional 40% off, meaning the brand’s beloved bags, wallets, and dresses are at some of the cheapest prices we’ve ever seen. Prioritize a shoulder bag in the color of the season and an under-$45 wallet that makes a great gift for women.
Beloved and frequently worn by the likes of Katie Holmes, Gigi Hadid, and Taylor Swift, cool-girl leather brand Mansur Gavriel is honoring the long weekend with a rare sale-on-sale event. Take 15% off already discounted styles with code SUMMER15; this crossbody and these ballet flats are perfect for every season.
Net-a-Porter only holds sales a few times a year—and we’re in the middle of one right now. Snag an extra 20% off select pre-fall styles, including designer sunglasses and berry-colored dresses, then keep hunting for your perfect changing-of-the-seasons staples.
While official Free People sales are few and far between, the brand’s regular markdowns are especially great right now. Just in time for fall, you can stock up on layering pieces like button-downs and flared jeans—and you’ll also get free shipping and returns on FP Movement orders for a limited time.
Ever wanted one of Hill House Home’s viral nap dresses? Now’s the time to snag your favorite; select styles are 25% off at the brand’s end-of-summer sale. We especially love these moody statement-making picks for autumn. (They’d also look great paired with chunky sweaters, just saying.)
One of our favorite things about shopping at Lululemon is its discounted, not-so-secret We Made Too Much section. Since the brand doesn’t technically have holiday sales, we can always count on that section to find steals on bestsellers like stretchy long-sleeve shirts and cozy sweatpants.
The Macy’s Labor Day sale has you covered on all the trends you need to shop ahead of fall. Denim shirts? Slingback kitten heels? Dark floral dresses? Check, check, check. Swimwear is especially discounted right now, with markdowns up to 75% off for any last-minute beach vacations in the works.
