While summer is drawing to a close, it’s nothing to be sad about—it means the best Labor Day clothing sales of 2025 are coming up, which will make the transition into sweater weather as chic as possible. And much to the delight of discount shoppers, brands are kicking things off a bit early this year, already offering smart deals well before Labor Day Weekend. The slate of steals includes cool-weather essentials like fall jackets and autumnal dresses, plus trendier pieces like rugby tops, slouchy jeans, and designer bags (hello, Tory Burch).
Tracking down all the best clothing sales eats into valuable poolside time, so our editors are here to bring you our absolute favorites in one place. For starters, Reformation is currently offering 30% off sitewide, with hard-to-resist denim, sweaters, dresses, and more. We’ve got our eyes on classics like Madewell and J.Crew, but there are also some super-rare deals to be had at Nordstrom and Free People right this minute. And lest we forget about Loft’s semi-annual sale, which includes up to 70% off select styles. Though we’re still weeks away from Labor Day, you needn’t wait to score some marked-down (and on-trend) fashion finds. Now go and get shopping for the best deals out there before they—and summer itself—set like the fading sun.
The best Labor Day clothing sales, at a glance
Nordstrom strikes again. Hot on the heels of its buzzed-about Anniversary Sale, the retailer is back with more discounts you won’t be able to ignore. Outdoorsy folks will appreciate slashed prices on Halfdays’s functional outerwear, while Staud’s office-ready footwear is bound to be a fixture in your fall shoe collection. Now go grab your credit card and have some fun—because why pay full price when you don’t have to?
Run, don’t walk: J.Crew’s sale section is currently an extra 30% off. Per usual, the label is chock-full of wardrobe essentials you’ll wear on repeat, a few of our favorites being its high-shine trench coat—perfect for gloomy fall days—and textured black blouse. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg; There are so many more savings worth gushing over.
Old Navy’s sale is almost too good to be true: The brand’s discounts are as steep as 75% off (!!). We’re talking $35 barrel-leg jeans, a denim trend that just can’t quit, and $24 special occasion satin dresses. So what are you waiting for? Get shopping while the savings are hot.
ICYMI, Reformation is currently running a 30% off sitewide sale — but it won’t last long. With that in mind, don’t wait to save big on the label’s fan-favorite denim, autumn-approved knitwear, and breezy dresses (just to name a few categories the retailer champions). Apologies in advance to your wallet.
Amazon isn’t just a go-to for appliances and home essentials; anyone who has scrolled through its clothing and accessories selection knows the retailer carries many of the industry’s beloved brands, from A.L.C. to Schutz. Currently, a slew of wardrobe staples are up for grabs at amazing prices. This look, for instance, would be so luxe for a fall wedding, no?
Spoiler: Abercrombie typically gives shoppers at least 15% off sitewide during Labor Day, and we have a feeling the annual sale will return this time around, too. For now, though, you can score 25% off purchases of $125 or more. Not sure where to start your shopping? We can confirm the hype around its denim on TikTok is real. These studded, ’90s-inspired jeans, for example, are too cool to pass up. Don’t forget to check out its selection of sale dresses, too. Easy breezy, baby.
Boho-chic fashion has taken hold of the style set, and there’s no better place to get your free-spirited fix than Free People. Right now, you can nab floral skirts and fringe sandals at way-low prices. Note: There are also deals on understated items, such as this denim jumpsuit, for the minimalist dressers reading this.
Last year’s Madewell Labor Day Sale included an additional 40% off sale and 25% off select styles for fall. No promises, but we’re assuming the brand will offer a similar discount this year. But here’s the good thing: You can start your shopping early, as Madewell already has a slew of the season’s most sought-after trends on sale, running the gamut from suede jackets to studded ballet flats.
It’s not often that Lululemon marks down its celebrity-approved activewear. But it’s our lucky day, as the label slashed prices on a handful of gym-bound looks, including its Wunder Train leggings (as seen on Taylor Swift) and cinched-waist running jackets. Visit its We Made Too Much section and you’ll be the most stylish jogger in the neighborhood.
Haven’t heard? Loft’s semi-annual sale is underway, and we’d be remiss if we didn’t shout out all the steeply-discounted pieces. During the promotion, select items are an extra 70% off (yes, really). As for specific pieces worth snagging, on-trend blouses are abundant in the sale, like this romantic dotted blouse, which is currently a whopping 40% off. Make sure to browse through its wallet-friendly selection of jewelry as well.
If your fall basics collection could use some love, pop over to Levi’s — particularly its sale section. Not only are select styles of the brand’s cult-favorite denim marked down, but you’ll find many wardrobe MVPs, such as long-sleeve tees and sweatshirts, at stellar deals. Act fast, though, because pieces are flying off the virtual shelves.
Are you thinking of revamping your workout assortment? Just do it. In all seriousness, plenty of low-priced sporty essentials are ripe for the picking at Nike. To start, we’d recommend one of its oh-so comfy fleece hoodies or signature Dunk sneakers. But really, you can’t go wrong with any piece from the activewear powerhouse.
Good luck not adding everything from Shopbop’s sale section to your cart. Tory Burch! Baum und Pferdgarten! Hill House! Practically every industry-favorite brand has something for a jaw-dropping price, with some discounts as high as 65% off. This sale is too epic not to shop.
Everlane always has us covered in the basics department. And now’s the perfect time to stock up on your trusty everyday essentials, thanks to the retailer’s incredible offerings. Believe it or not, some of its favorites are up to 70% off. Something to keep in mind, though: Most items are final sale, so we’d recommend skipping anything you’re on the fence about.
We can always count on Mango to have the season’s buzziest looks in stock. And now, the retailer is allowing shoppers to scoop up many a trend at a discounted price. Not to play favorites, but this zebra dress and studded bag are the first pieces we’d buy.
