Carolina, Oscar, and more!
The pre-fall collections are rolling in. The season that remains at retail the longest each year is a powerhouse for brands and retailers—in other words, pay attention: These are the clothes we’ll be wearing in a few months’ time.

With NYC as a starting point, designer Wes Gordon designed a collection of, “fresh, spirited, and buoyant—miniskirts, polka dots and A-line silhouettes in vibrant hues.”
“The collection is all about living loudly and proudly and playing with extremes,” he explains, “Let a short skirt be short, let a full sleeve be full.”

“At a time when we’re all determined to reach the other side of this challenging period but are unsure what that looks like or how exactly we’ll get there, this collection is about momentum—being propelled by personal strength and glimmers of hope,” says creative director Catherine Holstein. “I wanted to explore the notion of ‘getting through,’ of making your way by surrounding yourself with what you feel you need. The instinct to seek comfort and to retreat into nostalgia is tempered by a craving for escape and by moments of pure joy.”
