We’re especially smitten with that puff-sleeve number, which is only one of the many fall wedding guest dresses up for grabs. Don’t skip the sweaters, either; Selena Gomez wore that exact cashmere turtleneck last year, and now it’s nearly $100 off. Nordstrom Nordstrom isn’t holding an official Labor Day sale (yet), but the retailer just quietly marked down a ton of current-season pieces, including a fall-friendly Farm Rio dress and the never-discounted Comme des Garçons Converses.
Take a dive into the virtual aisles and see what else you come up with. J.Crew J.

Right now you can snag Black Friday-worthy gems like the perfect sweater dress and a designer bag from Marc Jacobs (!!!) to start transitioning your summer wardrobe to fall. Madewell While we gear up for Madewell’s official Labor Day sale—which is sure to be a doozy, considering everything was up to 40% off last year—a ton of bestsellers just hit the retailer’s sale section. Stock up on sultry tops and fall-ready tote bags now, then start daydreaming about apple orchards and pumpkin spice lattes.
Uniqlo Uniqlo, the master of well-made basics, is kicking things off early with limited-time deals on a few transitional staples, including trendy wide-leg jeans and an all-weather shoulder bag, a close cousin of the brand’s viral crescent bag . Your fall wardrobe could always use such versatile pieces. Abercrombie & Fitch 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 when you spend $150 or more.
Reaching that threshold shouldn’t be hard when on-trend vests and barrel jeans are up for grabs. Net-a-Porter Net-a-Porter only holds sales about twice a year—and we’re in the middle of one right now. Snag an extra 20% off select styles, including this chic top and these iconic sunglasses , then keep hunting for your perfect changing-of-the-seasons staples.
Aerie Aerie’s loungewear is the stuff of legends, and it’s only getting more covetable as we head into fall. Thankfully, all of the brand’s sweatshirts and leggings are 40% off ahead of the new season; just-added picks are also 25% off, while clearance styles are an additional 60% off. Go, go, go! Free People 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 express shipping on all orders for a limited time. Mango We’ve long been obsessed with Mango’s work-ready basics, which put chic spins on the wardrobe essentials you’re already wearing. Now, tons of those pieces (including a piped cardigan and a low-key trench) are up to 70% off as the retailer makes room for new-season pieces.
We suggest you snap them up before our editors do. Gap Gap’s Labor Day deal is for the ages: 40% off everything, including new arrivals, at its annual Friends & Family event. (Select sweats and T-shirts, meanwhile, are 50% off.
) Hop on this ribbed tee that’ll get endless mileage in the months ahead and this classic blazer that’ll complement jeans and dresses—but check out the rest of the site to make sure you’re not missing anything. Kate Spade Kate Spade knows how to throw a great sale, and we’re still holding our breath for the official Labor Day event to drop. But for now, a ton of items, including this moody floral dress and this cute bag in the brand’s iconic green, are on regular discount, and they are not to be slept on.
Lululemon 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 cozy sweatpants and hoodies . Nordstrom Rack Autumnal gems are already discounted at Nordstrom Rack, where Free People jackets are over half-off 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. Macy’s Macy’s end-of-summer sale has you covered on all the trends you need to shop ahead of fall. Denim shirts? Mary Jane flats? Dark floral dresses? Check, check, check.
