INTRODUCING PRE-FALL 2026: GOLDEN HOUR

INTRODUCING PRE-FALL 2026: GOLDEN HOUR

Golden hour is the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset, when sunlight travels through the atmosphere to create a warmer, softer, and more diffused light. In our newest editorial campaign, we spent the day chasing those perfect golden hour vibes: the dappled light and subtle shifts we experience as we prepare for shorter days and embrace a style shift. Shot on location at Oatlands historic garden in Leesburg, Virginia by longstanding Intentionally Blank brand friend and muse Erika Astrid, we love this nod to the season ahead.⁠

With pre-fall comes subtle and nuanced changes as the sun hovers low on the horizon, shadows elongate, and fractured light hits subjects more beautifully. For this drop, we wanted to lean into that effortless beauty with pieces that feel like portraits, thoughtful still life creations, or, in a modern way, the perfect snap for the gram.⁠

We are introducing new shoe shapes, materials, and proportions into this compact edit: a transitional statement boot, low angular heels for the busy shift ahead, and showstopping flats that ease us towards the perfect glow of an oncoming autumnal style cycle while meeting your personal style needs along the way.⁠

Welcome to Golden Hour: here's to finding your perfect light.⁠
