Since the stay-at-home orders started in March, apparel retailers have been running non-stop discounts online as stores across the U.S. remained closed. We will most likely see the deep sales continue throughout the summer as brick-and-mortar stores start to reopen in the coming months, and clothing retailers sift through their inventory to shed seasonal items. As more states are lifting lockdown measures and businesses are reopening, however, spending on apparel won't bounce back quickly or anytime soon.
On one hand, deep discounts can be dangerous for retailers as well in terms of hurting their brand or cutting into their bottom-line profits. On the other hand, apparel businesses need a way to draw the customers back in. Many consumers have been facing financial challenges due to COVID-19 job losses. With all of the uncertainty surrounding how long the epidemic will last and the full extent of its economic impact, people have been watching their budget during this time, pulling back spending on clothes and focusing on groceries and household essentials.
For those fortunate enough to have the funds to spare during this time, please please please consider donating to nonprofits and companies that are helping to fight the pandemic!! And for those of you who have the extra money and would like to take advantage of the deals and treat yo'self to new clothes and accessories while supporting the clothing industry, here are some of the best sales right now!
