Come behind the scenes at Clairvaux’s Fall ’26 photoshoot for an exclusive look at how we bring everything to life. From beauty and styling to the final frame, get a first glimpse at the new brands, trends, and pieces defining the season ahead.
For Fall 2026, our canvas was La Villa, a Spanish-inspired modern event space, where the setting became the backdrop for the collection. From there, it’s all in the details—hair and makeup, pulling and styling each look, finding the right lighting, and adjusting every element of the frame until it feels just right. Each part of the process plays a role in creating the final images that you all see.
This season we're introducing new brands including ARLO MOTT, MARGE SHERWOOD, CISSA, ROSEANNA and more, each bringing a distinct perspective to the fall collection.
As we look toward our Fall Forecast, color is taking a decidedly bolder turn. Cherry red, chartreuse, cobalt blue, and saturated purple bring a fresh energy to the season, moving beyond the traditional fall palette in favor of something more unexpected. We’re especially loving these shades worn head-to-toe—color drenching. Each hue gives off a look that feels intentional, modern, and anything but predictable.
Maximalism makes its way into the mix through layered textures, statement accessories, and unexpected color or print combinations. Think leopard print and florals, stripes and plaid, polka dots and croc. It’s a season for taking more chances with what you wear—and making the combination work.
Western Lux reworks suede, denim, fringe, and equestrian-inspired details into something more refined. Think less costume cowboy, more polished Western editorial.
Modern Prep is another trend we’re loving for Fall 2026, bringing a fresh perspective to the classic "buttoned-up" dressing. This year it's taking on tailoring, stripes, knits, and collegiate references—and gives a sharper, more contemporary edge than your typical collared shirts.
The BTS is where the vision starts to take shape. Before the final images, there are racks of clothes, mood boards, styling changes, location decisions, and plenty of trial and error. We hope you enjoyed following along and getting an inside look at what goes into bringing each shoot to life.
Xx,
Joni Johnson & Le Clairvaux Team
