If you’re looking to update your wardrobe, Ann Taylor’s Black Friday sale will help you save on just about everything storewide. Based on past years, here’s what you can expect at their upcoming event in 2025: from sale dates, discount levels, and what exclusions to look out for, to details on shipping and a preview of Cyber Monday.
Likely Sale Dates: When Does Ann Taylor’s Black Friday Start?
The 2025 Black Friday Sale at Ann Taylor will likely begin on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, the day before Thanksgiving. This follows the trend from previous years when they launched their Black Friday promotions mid-week. The sale is expected to run through Saturday, November 29, 2025, giving you a few days to take advantage of the storewide discounts.
What Kind of Discounts Can You Expect?
For Black Friday, Ann Taylor’s hallmark deal has been a 50% discount sitewide. Last year, this promotion required you to use promo code FRIDAY at checkout to activate the savings if shopping online at anntaylor.com. If you’re shopping in stores, the same 50% discount is typically applied automatically at the register.
In addition to the storewide offer, Ann Taylor often includes free shipping for online orders over $150 during their Black Friday event.
Exclusions to Watch For
As with most major Black Friday sales, there are typically some exclusions to the deal. Based on last year’s terms, here are the items that were not eligible for the storewide discount:
- The Preview Collection – These are usually newer arrivals or curated seasonal pieces.
- Key Styles – Select high-demand items that are excluded from promotions.
- Charitable Items – Any merchandise with proceeds benefiting charities or causes.
It’s also worth noting that the Black Friday sale at Ann Taylor Factory Outlet stores and Loft locations will be different.
Cyber Monday: What Comes After Black Friday?
If you happen to miss Ann Taylor’s Black Friday Sale, there’s good news—you’ll still have another opportunity to save during Cyber Monday. Their Cyber Monday sale is expected to start on Sunday, November 30, 2025, and run through Wednesday, December 2, 2025.
While Cyber Monday deals are similar to Black Friday, they often include slight variations or added perks. For example, last year shoppers saw similar 50% discounts alongside exclusive online-only promotions. Be sure to check Ann Taylor’s site early during the Cyber Monday event to catch any limited-time deals or additional offers.
