Stupid Question --- Seasonal Collections?

cinderella+red

Hi -

I have a really niiave question (I am a total dud when it comes to the fashion industry).  When a designer advertises that their Fall 2012 collection is hitting stores...........are those dresses that would be seasonally appropriate for the Fall?  or is it just any type of dress and just happens to be the newest and best for release now?

I know that there would be some differences in what you'd wear if you were getting married in August vs. January (weight of dress, type of material, etc).......so seasonal kind of makes sense....but I can't for the life of me tell.

Thank you for humoring niiave little me!

That's correct.  A designer's fall collection hits the store early Spring, and turn around is the same
