Rosie Assoulin offered divine tension within voluminous, haute couture-inspired shapes, through heavy weighted wool outerwear and energetic eveningwear offerings for fall.

See all the looks from the collection.

The brand’s first pre-fall was shown in Paris and gave more space to hand-finished details and lush materials.

The transition from weekday summer in the city to weekend at the shore inspired transformable pieces that nodded to nautical prep.

Rosie Assoulin’s fall collection had a through line of reality that reined in the fantasy in favor of, dare we say it, casual daywear.

The looks were eclectic, beautifully made, born into the family, but, at times, very distantly related.

Assoulin enjoys getting carried away. Her endless energy is infectious and it seeps into the clothes.

The lineup was less a cohesive collection than a series of outfits brimming with personality.
