From clogs that instantly captivated my attention to the enduring presence of suede, and a particular Miu Miu shoe style that has become my most frequent request—there's much to explore and acquire. So, without further ado, let’s delve into this month’s selection of pre-fall discoveries.

Miu Miu Fishermen's Sandals

A new Miu Miu shoe silhouette has been consistently sought after, marking its presence as a key item in our daily inquiries. These latest fisherman sandals are perfectly poised for early autumn styling, offered in versatile light and dark brown tones, and confirmed to provide exceptional comfort.

Manolo Blahnik Butter Yellow Mules

The allure of butter yellow remains potent, firmly establishing itself as the color of the season, with no signs of diminishing. For those eager to embrace this vibrant hue but uncertain where to begin, these exquisite Manolo Blahnik mules offer an impeccable starting point. Far from being a fleeting seasonal trend, these shoes promise enduring style and versatility, making them a worthwhile year-round addition to any discerning wardrobe. My enthusiastic endorsement is unequivocal.

Loewe Puzzle Biker Small Leather Tote Bag

Our recent Instagram post featuring this bag immediately ignited considerable interest, a response that came as no surprise. Intriguingly, Net-a-Porter's recent retrospective of their most sought-after items from 2000 to the present (a compelling read, indeed!) revealed that the Puzzle Bag secured the top position for 2025. Its enduring appeal and popularity are clearly undeniable.

Loro Piana Fishnet Ballet Flats in Gold

Loro Piana's distinctive interpretation of the fishnet ballet flat has garnered my enthusiastic approval. The metallic gold finish offers a playful yet refined twist on the classic design, and I particularly admire its styling on the model—an ensemble that perfectly embodies the ideal pre-fall aesthetic. With limited stock already indicated, now is the opportune moment to secure these highly coveted flats.

The Row Didion Woven Shoulder Bag

Woven bags, regardless of their dimensions, are currently experiencing a significant surge in popularity, a trend I anticipate will persist well into the forthcoming season. The Row is at the forefront of this movement, with their recent introduction of various woven styles. Among these, the Didion model stands out, currently available in black (ready for immediate acquisition) and soon to be released in white.

Khaite Clogs

Clogs are poised to be a prominent footwear choice for pre-fall and beyond, a development that truly delights me! My initial encounter with Khaite's newest Britt 25 style elicited an audible gasp of admiration, a true love-at-first-sight moment. Given Miu Miu's foray into clogs for the autumn season, I fully expect other designers to follow suit. The already dwindling stock of these particular clogs comes as no surprise whatsoever.

Khaite Sybil 40 Leather Ankle Boots

In my estimation, Khaite remains unparalleled in its offering of pre-fall and autumn boots. Each season, the brand consistently delivers styles that are not only highly sought after but also genuinely comfortable. Their Sybil boot, now available in a sophisticated burgundy hue, exemplifies this perfect blend of style and wearability.

Saint Laurent Daisy 50 Satin Mules

Echoing a sense of nostalgia, Saint Laurent's latest Daisy 50 style exudes an unmistakably vintage charm. These elegant satin mules, adorned with delicate embellishments, underscore Saint Laurent's consistent mastery in footwear design. I predict this style will undoubtedly sell out swiftly.

Miu Miu Cropped Vest

Another compelling piece for pre-fall is a two-piece fleece ensemble, and courtesy of Miu Miu, I've identified the perfect iteration for this month's selection. As I've noted with other popular items, a rapid sell-out is virtually guaranteed for this set. Whether worn together or as separate components, the styling possibilities are endless, offering exceptional versatility.

Miu Miu Mini Skirt

I couldn't possibly omit the link to the coordinating skirt for this ensemble. It's an immediate addition to my cart, a style that promises boundless wear as the weather transitions to cooler temperatures. The fleece fabric provides exceptional comfort, making it an ideal choice for the changing seasons.

Miu Miu Ivy Camoscio Crochet Bag

Suede is set to be a dominant material throughout both the pre-fall and fall seasons. This new Miu Miu style, with its charming crochet detailing, adds a delightful finishing touch to the trend. With only one remaining in stock currently, it's clear this piece won't last long—consider yourself duly notified!

Chloé Ruffled Silk Romper

The preceding Chloé tops featured in this column swiftly sold out, prompting a continuous flow of sourcing requests for them. I anticipate a similar outcome for their latest silk romper. It perfectly embodies the quintessential Chloé aesthetic, and I envision it elegantly paired with an oversized jacket for the cooler evenings ahead. Chloé's popularity continues to escalate each month, underscoring its significant market demand.

The Row Stella Slippers

Prepare yourselves, for these are destined to become the quintessential footwear from The Row for the forthcoming season, particularly in the alluring Mud colorway. They promise an unparalleled level of comfort, gently embracing your feet. While some retailers are offering them for pre-order, others have already released them, only to see them swiftly sell out or become scarce. Such is the undeniable allure of this coveted style.

Rene Caovilla Cleo Embellished Leather Sandals

Month after month, requests for Rene Caovilla, specifically their Cleo style, continue to pour in. These sandals are as iconic as they are elegant, and I genuinely believe they are an indispensable addition to any wardrobe. Their timeless design ensures perpetual wearability, and this particular colorway stands out as one of the most exquisite options available.

Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Leather-Trimmed Jacket

The combination of "pre-fall" and "Bottega Veneta" evokes a profound sense of sartorial delight. Featuring the brand's distinguished intrecciato leather collar, a Bottega Veneta leather-trimmed jacket is an indispensable wardrobe addition. My admiration for this particular style is boundless. Recently, my team at Gab Waller embarked on an extensive search for one of these jackets in a beige hue, miraculously locating it in Canada. This is undeniably a piece not to be overlooked.

Loro Piana L36 Extra Clutch

A new size has arrived for Loro Piana's most beloved design: behold the all-new L36! The L19 continues to generate immense interest in my direct messages with each new colorway and style release, and I anticipate the L36 will achieve comparable popularity.

Real Fine Studio Golden Hour Charm

If you're an avid user of TikTok, you've likely encountered Real Fine Studio on your feed recently. Their burgeoning popularity is undeniably well-deserved. Each piece showcases exquisitely sourced stones, and the dedication and meticulous craftsmanship infused into every design are strikingly evident. These earrings, in particular, hold the top spot on my personal wish list, and I sincerely hope they captivate you as much as they've captivated me.

Jacquemus Spiaggia Dress

Undoubtedly, Jacquemus's Spiaggia dress is my most sought-after piece currently, and indeed, it has been the most requested item from the brand over the past quarter. This unequivocally signals the strong and sustained demand for polka dots, further accentuated by the dress's built-in bodysuit, offering remarkable versatility. Should you find it available in your size, seize the opportunity—otherwise, my direct messages are open for your sourcing requests.

Alaïa Decolette 90 Suede Pumps

Concluding this month's curated selection with an Alaïa creation feels entirely appropriate, as no compilation is truly complete without its presence. The brand consistently ranks among my top 10 most requested, and with suede poised to be a dominant material for pre-fall, their beige suede pumps are destined to become an indispensable wardrobe staple.
