The Donna Karan Pre-Fall 2010 collection is another late-summer fashion line that was tough to whittle down to just ten images. Draping and [body-hugging wraps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-by-miraclesuit) align for fashions that show off the beauty of the outfit's construction *and* the physique of the wearer.

My favorite dresses from the Donna Karan [Pre-Fall 2010 line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prefall-2026-collection) are those found in the first and fourth images. Which is your favorite?
