Not only is summer the best season for shopping in general—the swimsuits, sandals, and general vacation-ready vibe of it all—but it also happens to coincide with sale season. In other words, some of the best deals can be found this time of year. While most retailers don't start offering their deepest discounts until late June and July, things are already kicking off over at Saks Fifth Avenue, where the retailer is putting some 12,000-odd designer items on sale at up to 50% off.
I initially clicked in to idly peruse through the first few pages of the sale, but it didn't take long before I realized just how many epic finds were sprinkled throughout. Soon, I was scrolling through every last page to uncover the best of the best. I'm pleased to share that it wasn't all in vain because I managed to pull out so many pieces that made my jaw drop, starting with the one and only yellow satin Loewe dress that Aubrey Plaza notoriously wore on the red carpet at the 2024 Emmy Awards. Ahead, discover all the designer finds from the Saks sale that are seriously threatening to end my shopping freeze.
Here's *the* Loewe dress in question. I honestly can't believe such a memorable red carpet gown was included in this sale.
