However, some of the best deals are on travel capsule wardrobe-worthy clothing, comfortable sneakers, and functional travel bags.

Best Target Labor Day Fashion Deals

Whether you’re headed on vacation soon or not, Target’s fashion Labor Day deals are too good to pass up. Not only did we find a slew of resort-ready dresses, including the Universal Thread Flutter Short Sleeve Maxi, which will transition seamlessly from summer to fall, but we also found a variety of comfortable tops and bottoms, perfect for wearing to the airport. The best part? All nine styles we’ve rounded up below are currently under $35.

Universal Thread Short Sleeve Wrap Waist Midi Shirtdress

With a collared neckline and side-tie closure, this shirtdress is a sophisticated yet effortless outfit that’s suitable for various activities on vacation, including sightseeing and dinner at the hotel. It’s made of a breathable cotton and rayon fabric, featuring a button-front design that allows for a seamless transition from day to night. It’s available in two colors, but the pink striped is selling quickly.

A New Day High-Rise Chino Shorts

One reviewer noted that these chino shorts are dressier than the average pair, featuring a lightweight blend of lyocell, viscose, and nylon with a crinkled texture. They also have a slightly longer length, a high-rise cut, and pockets in the front and back, making them as functional as they are chic. A petite shopper loved the shorts so much that they went back to buy more colors, so you might want to stock up for the rest of the season.
