Tariffs are expected to significantly drive up the cost of clothing, and it won’t only be fast-fashion items that are hit by price hikes. Luxury clothing will also likely be affected, as most designer brands manufacture abroad. Gucci, for example, makes most of its goods in Italy, which currently has a 20% tariff rate (10% baseline, plus the 10% on EU goods) on exports including apparel.
Shopping mid- to high-end brand-name clothing on a budget will likely get more challenging. Fortunately, U.S. shoppers have a number of reputable retailers where they can purchase new name-brand clothing at discounted prices.

Saks Off 5th
You’ve probably heard of Saks Fifth Avenue, a go-to retailer for high-end luxury items, but have you heard of its outlet division, Saks Off Fifth? It’s been around for decades, and was digitally spruced up in 2013 with the launch of SaksOFF5TH.com. Here, you’ll find up to 75% off high-end name-brand clothing. Be on the look out for deals on Prada, Balenciaga, Valentino and more.
Marshalls
If you’re on a fairly tight budget and in search of name-brand items that aren’t very high-end, Marshalls — either in person or online — is a great place to visit. The off-price department store currently has mega markdowns on a variety of brands including Adrianna Papell, Nanette Lepore, Mac Duggal, Tahari and more.
TJ Maxx
T.J. Maxx is the sister store of Marshalls and another excellent destination for bargain shoppers. Right now, we’re seeing big savings on various name-brand clothing at T.J. Maxx. For example, a Tadashi Shoji gown that typically sells for $260 is on sale for $104. And a pair of men’s chinos by Kenneth Cole, valued at $35, are priced at $16.99.
6PM
6PM.com is a fashionista favorite. The discount division of Zappos, 6PM offers significant savings on designer apparel. Expect to save 30% to 70% on high-end clothing by brands such as Coach, Tory Burch and Vince, to name just a few.
Gilt Groupe
Gilt Groupe operates a bit differently than these other retailers, but it’s worth giving it a whirl if you’re on the hunt for savings on name-brand clothing. You sign up to become a member (there’s no fee; just make an account with your email address) and get access to sales on various designer portfolios.
Gilt is best for people who don’t necessarily have a specific item in mind, but are open to discovering deals on all sorts of goods as they arise.
