Saint Laurent Pre.

It's fun and rock and roll, flirty and young. Plus, I always love when pre shots are as aesthetically pleasing as the clothes pictured. Oh, and Sky Ferreira is modelling. 

Love it.

Valentino Pre

I mean, just gah. So beautiful.

Love that there's princessy dresses and a touch of kink in the one collection.

Stellar.

She's done it again.

The Stella McCartney Pre A/W 2013-14 has me excited for next winter...and this one isn't even over yet.

But, seriously, it's kind of a blockbuster of a collection. First of all, I'm loving the shots which aren't always super-exciting for pre collections. But the combination of fun, cute model and plain but textured and visually interesting background is great. And then there are the clothes themselves.

It's almost like a checklist of things I love: ankle boots; chunky, wearable heels; navy; black; burgundy; camel; bombers; mannish coats; capes; a touch of androgyny; elegant silhouettes; and last, but not least, ultra-cool, uber-modern styling.

Love it.

Alexander Wang Pre A/W 2013

He does it again. Such wearable, simple and yet luxurious clothes. So excited to see what he does for Balenciaga! To all the haters, at least let the man put out a show before you complain. I personally think he could do very interesting things for the brand. And waitago for doing it in reverse! That's a first; having your own label and then joining one of the greats.

Chanel Pre A/W 2013

SO MUCH GAH!

This collection is something special. I haven't been this in love in a while. It seems the pres are where Karl is at his most eccentric and genius. 

The little girl in me is giddy. I was never a particularly girly child but I dare even the most "macho" of men to look at this collection and resist the urge to don a tiara. It's so very princessy! Clearly, the collection is inspired by royal or court costume of various periods and Scottish heritage. CHANEL + PLAID + HISTORICAL INSPIRATION MAKES ME HAPPY. I'm sorry, I'm just quite excited. You've probably noticed. 

Delicate, pointy shoes.

Stompy boots.

Lace.

Jewel embellishment.

Plaids and tartans.

COLLARS.

It's like visual poetry, non?
