Hello there Sea Changers. Welcome back to my series of program lists to assist those of you looking to fund your sea change with affiliate marketing. Recently I wrote a post on affiliate programs within the clothing niche and it quickly became apparent that the sub niche that we will look into today simply warrants enough traffic that it can easily be utilised to create an online affiliate marketing business on its own. So with that, welcome to my post covering 10 women’s fashion affiliate programs to dress up with in 2021.

You too can start your very own online business here!!
Before we begin however, I am conscious that there are a number of different areas or sub niches even within the narrower women’s fashion niche that you could choose from hence the quantity of affiliate programs to choose from may be just as large. So how have I picked my best 10? Well… I really just wanted to give you a good cross section of what is out there so I did some searching around and checked a few out and chose them by looking at:
- What they offer
- Commission rates
- Payment terms
- Cookie duration
- Application processes
- Affiliate/Marketing materials provided
Before we start however, let’s have a look at what I mean by the term ‘women’s fashion’ and how it can be incorporated within an affiliate marketing website…
What do we mean by women’s fashion?
As I have mentioned above, even though I have broken the large clothing niche down a little, there is still a lot here. That said, it is also such a popular online market that there is also the potential to break this down even further or incorporate a number of ideas within the one site. So for this post, I have tried to cover a good cross section across the range of women’s fashion with sites covering:
- Women’s clothes (general)
- Vintage and hand made clothes
- Second hand items
- Fashion/designer brand clothes
- Specialty items
- Accessories
- Shoes
- Plus size clothing
And of course anything else you can think of when it comes to women’s fashion… So, if you are looking to make money selling clothes online the let’s check them out below.
What can affiliate marketers promote?
There are essentially no real barriers to what affiliate marketers can promote when it comes to women’s fashion. There are however some things to be aware of as you run your eye over clothing affiliate program possibilities that may suit your site. These are:
- Know your audience, some purchasers are looking for specifics and want the best whilst others are hoping to just get a nice outfit on a budget. Choose your affiliate sites accordingly.
- Purchasers of high end fashion label items and accessories will not take risks if they don’t trust you or your affiliate site. Make sure the programs you choose are reputable and have good recourse options if the purchaser is not happy.
- Those purchasing for a special occasion (weddings etc.) will need to know specs and maybe even want them customised or sized – make sure your affiliate program is able to meet these requirements.
That said, stats show that people will spend money on fashion items online if it can make their lives easier so as long as you are meeting their needs and solving problems, then you are on the right track. And to give you a boost, let’s have a look at 10 programs that I have found below:
1. Liligal

Amazon Associates
Alternatively, should you wish to set up your site up with a range from a few different brands or companies on the same site then you can do so via Amazon. Amazon provides access to a good range of fashion related products and has a fairly good affiliate program as well. So if you wish, join the Amazon Associates program, locate the best products relevant to your site within Amazon itself and you can post links on your own site as per below:
Amazon’s commission rates are not too bad and some prefer this avenue due to the sheer amount of traffic and trustworthiness that comes with a company site of this size.
How to find your own affiliate programs
As stated earlier, by outlining the sites above I have really just tried to give you a good cross section of the types of programs that are out there by listing the really good ones in each ‘category’. That does not mean that you cannot find affiliate programs that better suit (no pun intended haha) what it is that you are trying to do within this space especially as I could never even begin to cover every fashion related requirement or sub niche in the one post. Luckily for us, there is a simple way to find these programs online.
All you need to do is enter “affiliate: niche type” into your search engine (substituting ‘niche type‘ for whatever product it is that you are choosing to sell).
There are women’s fashion related affiliate programs for everything else that we have listed at the top of this page as well – you will just need to have a look around until you find one or two that suit your site. Once you have completed your searches, you can look through and find programs that:
- Relate to your niche/problems that you are solving.
- Have quality products – your brand can be severely damaged if you promote poor quality products.
- Have solid payment and customer service arrangement.
- Pay decent commissions.
- Have good testimonials covering commission payouts and quality of product.
In most cases, you will need to apply for the program before you are allowed to promote their products – don’t take this step lightly or you will be rejected. Affiliate programs will generally want to know:
- Your website name.
- Traffic levels.
- Why you want to join – (so I can make money by selling your crop tops is unfortunately not generally a good enough answer).
- How you plan to promote their products.
Conclusion
So… There are 10 of the best women’s fashion affiliate programs to work with in 2021. I hope it has been helpful for you as you commence your own fashion based affiliate marketing business and as usual, please do not hesitate to comment below if you have any questions, need some advice or have any experiences to share. Oh, and especially comment if you have any experience with these, or any other programs as well.
Until next time
Have fun
