It’s Black Friday week (AKA Cyber Week), and you can’t move for the amount of Black Friday clothing deals being advertised left, right and centre.
As a fashion writer who has been navigating these sales for seven years, even I still find it tricky (read: fatiguing) to decipher the good deals from the ‘meh’ – especially when a lot of them have been running since the beginning of November.
I’m definitely trying to shop more sustainably during this year’s event, though, and I’m looking to fill some wardrobe gaps by seeking out key pieces that’ll actually last (easier said than done, I know). The least I can do is extend my findings to you, right?

If you are tempted to hold out ’til Friday 28th itself, and I don’t blame you (just don’t shoot the messenger if things sell out in your size by then), I recommend you keep an eye on the prices of items you know you’re likely to shop from now, that way you truly know if you’re getting a good deal or not.
Some brands have been known to only reduce their collections slightly in the past – anything less than 20% is just cruel, in my opinion. In more recent years, where there are so many reductions happening across multiple categories (see the best Black Friday beauty deals, best Black Friday mattress deals and best Black Friday sex toy deals for proof), there’s more competition among retailers. And that’s always a nice problem to have.
Whether you’ve been swooning over a winter coat or pair of winter boots that are just a tad over budget, are in desperate need of a new work bag or laptop backpack for your commute, or you’re keen to elevate your knitwear or jewellery collection, the time to strike is now.
It’s also arguably the best time to pick up a few of the best Christmas gifts for less, too, so bear that in mind while you’re browsing for yourself.
Why you can trust me
As Senior Fashion Commerce Writer here at Glamour, I get a heads-up on what all the Black Friday deals will be before anyone else. Thanks to my extensive list of PR contacts, I’m one of the first in line to be notified when embargoes lift too – so, as soon as I’m allowed to tell you (the general public) anything, I do.
Below, you’ll notice a fairly exclusive list of brands. These aren’t the only fashion brands that have started their Black Friday deals early, obviously, but they’re ones that I’ll be shopping personally; have the best discounts; wear well; and that I’ve tested before. Rest assured I’d never recommend you a brand I wouldn’t buy from myself, even if they’re on sale.
Short list of the best Black Friday clothing sales, according to an editor:
