"The buyers do 80 percent of their fall buy with pre-fall some even 85%. They want to buy then to guarantee delivers at the end of May. We have to place the fabric orders in December and January to get deliveries in April and ship in May".
Luca Orlando of Luca Luca.

The fabrics in pre-fall are lighter than those at the fall fashion shows. These clothes can remain on the selling field longer.
The collection is the same size as fall and is shipped in May, while fall doesn´t arrive in the stores in July.
