Anthropologie Labor Day Sale on Dresses

Ahead of the transitional season, prep your wardrobe for fall weather with these Anthropologie dresses on sale for Labor Day.

Maeve The Caroline Sleeveless Tie-Neck Mini Dress

On Sale 21% off

$140  Buy Now

Anthropologie’s Maeve collection features some of the cutest and most whimsical pieces ever—and we especially love the dressier pieces that look cute as business casual office attire, wedding guest dresses, or elevated vacation outfits. 

The Caroline Sleeveless Tie-Neck Mini Dress is one style we’re currently eyeing for the early fall season because it boasts those autumnal colors while still showing off some skin so you don’t have to worry about sweating through the fabric on a sweltering September day. Wear this dress with a pair of knee-high boots and, for a more layered look, accessorize with some tights or knee-high socks (psst: these ones are so cute!) with loafers. 

Sizes Available: XXS-XL (standard, petite, and plus fits available) 
Colorways: 1
Materials: Polyester, polyamide, metallic; viscose lining

Farm Rio x Anthropologie Long-Sleeve Mini Swing Dress

If you’re ready for sleeves but don’t want something too cozy, the Farm Rio x Anthropologie Long-Sleeve Mini Swing Dress is another great Anthro sale item to add to your cart this week. This dress was originally $248 but is on sale for $160 (and if you buy it on Wednesday, it’s another 40% off of that!). It’s constructed from a lightweight and flowy cotton viscose blend, so despite its billowing sleeves, it’s breathable and great for warmer fall weather. This is a cute dress for the office, brunch with friends, and would also look so cute while enjoying fall festivities. 

Sizes Available: XXS-XL (standard and petite sizes available) 
Colorways: 1

By Anthropologie Sleeveless V-Neck A-Line Midi Dress

On Sale 35% off

$110 Buy Now

Not quite ready to say goodbye to the summer, but feeling that itch to wear more seasonal fall hues? The Sleeveless V-Neck A-Line Midi Dress from Anthropologie is a cute in-between piece that you can wear casually with a pair of sneakers (the Gola Elan Sneakers go so well with this!) or dress up a little with some heeled boots, depending on the weather. We also love the versatility of this dress—wear it on its own when it’s still warm in early September, then layer a cardigan or jacket over it when the weather gets chilly. 

Sizes Available: XXS-XL (standard and petite fits available) 
Colorways: 1

Reformation Oria Midi Dress

On Sale 43% off

$170 Buy Now

An Anthropologie sale is one of the best times to snag a few Reformation deals. Right now, the Oria Midi Dress is on sale for $170 (originally $298), which is not only a cute dress for the fall season, but also a timeless style you’ll wear for years to come. This dress is made from a cotton voile material, so it’s lightweight and breathable (despite its long sleeves) and looks cute on its own with sneakers or boots but is also versatile enough to wear as a base layer with a cute wool coat and scarf (try it with a silk scarf tied around your neck for a more western vibe) when the weather cools down in October and November. 

Sizes Available: 0-12
Colorways: 1
Materials: Cotton voile

Exquise The Tobie Button-Front Pleated Mini Shirt Dress

You can wear this one on its own with sneakers or ballet flats as an end-of-summer look, then style it with ankle boots or even metallic cowboy boots once the weather isn’t so hot and sticky. The dress also looks cute styled over jeans (pictured above), if you’re curious to try that emerging trend this season.
