In the time between September and February Fashion Weeks—between Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter lines—there’s pre-fall. Designers unveil these smaller capsule collections in less formal runway shows, presentations, trunk shows, or parties.

Aesthetically, pre-fall offers a preview of designs to come in official fall collections. Pre-fall is also commercially aimed, allowing serious shoppers to get a head start on upcoming trends. Many lines are already available for purchase at Moda Operandi, though most will be available in later months.
