    Black Friday is fast approaching, and we predict it to be the biggest online shopping weekend of the year in the UK, especially if you're talking Black Friday dress sales.

    But before we go onto dresses, make sure you check all our other amazing discounts, from the Black Friday trainer deals to all the other best Black Friday clothing deals, and not forgetting the best black Friday watches and best Black Friday engagement ring sales - we have got you covered.

    Is Black Friday a good time to buy clothes?

    Is it ever. Almost every retailer on the high-street (and designers too!) is hosting a Black Friday sale. These include JOSEPH, Zara and Topshop to name but a few. Each will have its own promotion, but expect a minimum of 20% off, while some will go up to 60% off.

    Keep scrolling to shop the best of the Black Friday dress sales, and don't forget to check out our Mytheresa discounts whilst you're here.

    Casual dresses

    Let's be honest, if lockdown has pushed us to buy one thing un particular, it's loungewear, so it makes sense that we're into casual dresses at the moment. I particularly love a good knitted dress, so scroll down to shop my edit.

    Party dresses

    Yes, party season may be a little different this year, but what's wrong with dressing up at home? That'll certainly get you in the festive spirit. Sequins are always a safe bet for the holidays, as is velvet.
