pre-fall
Late summer transition
Pre-fall describes the period before a fall from grace, innocence, or prosperity.
In Christian theology, the pre-fall state refers to humanity before Adam and Eve's expulsion from Eden: a pre-fall paradise.
The term extends to any golden age before decline: the pre-fall economy, her pre-fall reputation.
In fashion, pre-fall denotes collections released between spring and fall seasons.
