Dressbarn Black Friday 2025 Sale - What to Expect & When

What can you expect at Dressbarn’s Black Friday sale this year? Based on last year’s sale and general trends, we’ve put together a rundown of everything you need to know. From sale dates to deal examples, how much you can save, and even tips for loyalty members—this is a full look at what’s likely coming.

When Will Dressbarn’s Black Friday Sale Start in 2025?

If we go by how Dressbarn has handled it in past years, there are two main phases to their Black Friday event. The first one is the early access portion, and that’s expected to kick off on Friday, November 21, 2025. This is when they usually start warming things up with a broad sitewide sale, which may include some limited-time offers or flash deals.

The real main event, though, is expected to begin on Wednesday, November 26, 2025—the day before Thanksgiving. That’s when the full lineup of Black Friday deals typically goes live.

The sale should continue straight through Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and the weekend, and then wrap up after Cyber Monday, likely ending on Tuesday, December 2, 2025. So you’ll have around 12 days total to check it out, but the best items can sell out early—especially the really steep markdowns.

What Kind of Discounts Can You Expect?

From what we saw last year, Dressbarn tends to offer a 30% off sitewide discount as their main Black Friday promotion. It’s a flat discount that applies across the board, so you can shop any category and still get the markdown without needing promo codes or jumping through hoops.

On top of that, there are usually some doorbuster-style deals and extra markdowns on clearance items, which is where you can save even more—often up to 70% off original prices when everything’s factored in.

For example, last year, they had a Cozy Sweater that was originally priced at $54.50, and it was going for just $16.99 during the sale. That’s a pretty steep drop and a good example of the kind of limited-time deals you might find on popular seasonal items. Another standout from 2024 was clearance denim being marked down to $15.99, also from the same $54.50 original price point. That’s less than a third of the regular price.

The 30% off applies sitewide, but some items—especially sale and clearance styles—end up being stacked with that discount for even better value.

Shipping and Order Minimums

In terms of shipping, Dressbarn usually offers free shipping on orders over $75. This threshold hasn’t changed much in the past couple of years, and there’s no reason to think it will for 2025. If your cart doesn’t meet that minimum, standard shipping fees will apply—so it’s worth planning ahead if you’re close to the cutoff.

Sometimes during Black Friday weekend or on Cyber Monday, they offer free shipping with no minimum for one day only, so keep an eye out for any banners or email updates around that time.

Loyalty Program Benefits

If you’re part of the Dressbarn Loyalty Program, Black Friday is a good time to take advantage of some of those perks. Members can:

Earn points on purchases
Get early access to some deals
Use rewards points to reduce checkout totals

The loyalty program isn’t necessarily going to unlock deeper discounts, but it does let you rack up savings over time. If you’ve built up points throughout the year, this could be a great time to redeem them and bring your total down even more. Also, members sometimes get exclusive email offers, so it might be worth signing up before the sale kicks off, even if it’s just for the Black Friday stretch.
