I am in love with 2 collections for Fall 2015. Sadly, I have only taken the time now to look fully at the collections. Happily, neither collection is available just yet, so it’s not too late. Makes me wish I didn’t pre-order other stuff… oh well. Maiyet and Christophe Lemaire both appeal to me because of the simple, easy-to-wear elegance both collections put forth for the upcoming season.

Maiyet – I only have one dress from the line bought several seasons ago and I still get compliments whenever I wear it. The workmanship is gorgeous and I love their philosophy. My take on their Fall 2015 collection: the starkness and elegance of black and white, the drape, and the fabric choices. I may not be able to wear every single piece, but the entire collection is just breathtaking. My top choices for the upcoming season (all photos from style.com):

Lemaire’s collection shows the partnership influences the label has undertaken. Again the elegance and fluidity of the looks are a major factor in my decision to make them a favorite. I have several pieces from their Spring-Summer 2015 collection this year and since this was the first season I collected, I am quite pleased with every single piece in my closet. These pieces have become my workhorse: Fridays in the office, internal meetings. All pieces can be dressed up or down. My favorites for Fall:
