Sure, Labor Day is best known for markdowns on pricier items like mattresses and Apple tech, but not every holiday weekend purchase needs to be a big-ticket splurge. In fact, it's actually an ideal time to treat yourself to some wardrobe upgrades at a major discount. As a shopping editor who spends all day scouring the internet for sales, I'm pleased to see Amazon's early Labor Day fashion deals include plenty of Good Housekeeping Institute-tested brands like Levi's, Columbia, and more.

While you might already be in fall mode when it comes to fashion, don't overlook deals on summer-y items like swimsuits and sundresses. During Labor Day sales, retailers tend to offer the steepest markdowns on out-of-season garments to clear their inventory for the colder months. Case in point: I spotted editor-approved summer finds for up to 50% off, like our top-tested walking sandals for plantar fasciitis and our textile expert's favorite one-piece on Amazon.
