As Memorial Day marks the unofficial beginning of summer,Labor Dayis the unofficial end of the season — with deals the likes of which we haven’t seen since theFourth of July weekend. I rounded up the best Labor Day fashion deals this year below. As we’re in thissummer-falltransition, I focused more on items you can wear in the next few weeks and beyond (though we did publish a guide to thebest it’s-still-summer Labor Day dealsthis morning, should you be so inclined).

Anthropologie

During Anthropologie’s Labor Day Event, select clothing and accessories are up to 40 percent off with prices marked before checkout. (For comparison’s sake, Anthropologie’s Black Friday sale is 30 percent off nearly everything.) AsAnthropologie employeespreviously told me (I’m a former employee of the store myself), sales on full-price styles are increasingly rare, so you know what to do.
