I'm an NYC-based fashion editor, and the only thing I enjoy more than shopping for fall is scoring an excellent deal at an end-of-summer sale. The unofficial changing of the seasons takes place well before the weather shifts and has a huge impact on how retailers order and stock their merchandise. Come mid-August, it's out with the linen and in with the leather at most trend-savvy brands, including sustainability-focused darling Reformation.
As much as I'd love to buy a new moto jacket right now, it makes way more sense to pick up a few pretty dresses I've had my eye on all season while they're on sale. I'm a sucker for anything lightweight and breathable, like Ref's beloved linen collection, but there are also deals to be had on many of the brand's best-selling dresses that can be worn year-round.
I'm even more excited to shop for an array of dresses I can wear through Labor Day weekend and beyond with the addition of jackets, boots, and sweaters. Ahead, shop 24 of Reformation's best-selling dresses on sale right now, including excellent little black dresses that are always in season.
