Dagne Dover's best-tested garment bag is over half off and is a must for summer weddings
I'm a bit of a novice at packing for weddings, but now that I know more folks who are getting married, I'm considering upgrading my current plastic slip from the dry cleaner to a proper garment bag to protect my wedding guest attire. After perusing CNN Underscored's archive to find a bag that would fit my needs, I came across Dagne Dover's Capri Garment Bag. It was evaluated by our testing writer Michelle Rae Uy, who named it her top pick for gowns. In a stroke of luck, it just went on mega sale in three colors, dropping by 51% on the brand's site.

Gowns, suits and even shoes will be safe and sound in Dagne Dover's trusty garment bag. It keeps clothing wrinkle free and has four zippered pockets for ties, hair accessories, jewelry and more. It's $153 off in the colors Warm Dust, Onyx and Dark Moss. At 67 inches, this garment bag is longer than most of its kind. Thankfully, it folds up and is compact enough to throw over your shoulder with its tote straps. The length is perfect for longer suits, gowns or anything else that you don't want creasing or cramming into a smaller bag. Rae recommended it for black-tie events, which is why I'm buying it for a wedding this summer.
If the tote strap isn't for you, Dagne Dover is one step ahead. The garment bag also comes with a trolley sleeve that slips over the handles of a suitcase. Its variety of compartments for your shoes, phone and wallet, and its ability to fit up to three garments are a bonus for those looking to travel sans extra baggage.
My initial drawback about committing to the bag was its steep price. However, now that it's over $150 off, I'm shocked to see that it hasn't sold out yet.
With summer vacation just around the corner, many of us are gearing up for travel. Taking a weekender bag just isn't enough if you have to tote around formal attire, and purchasing a garment bag is a must if you want to keep your freshly pressed clothing crisp. Even if you aren't participating in any weddings, a garment bag is suitable for those who often fly or who commute on trains. This travel deal is worthwhile since it's an over half-off markdown on one of our best-tested items.
