Peter Som Fall 2013

By Justin Fenner

For Fall 2013, Peter Som examined the intersection of New York style and Parisian chic – a concept that has informed countless designers, but got new life in Som’s hands. Inspired by photographer Amy Arbus‘s pictures of downtown New Yorkers in the early ’80s and the overall romance of the City of Light, Som pulled together painterly polka dots, floral prints with blooms edged in acidic shades of red and yellow, leopard, sequins, and fur. Our full review will be posted shortly. In the meantime, enjoy a full look at the collection here in the gallery.

Peter Som's Fall 2013 Show Will Happen

By Christina Perez

Fashion is a fast moving industry, and never has that seemed more apparent than in the last couple days. Actually, scratch that. Never has that seemed more apparent than just this morning. First came news that canceled show will go on as well. Sort of.

According to a press release, Prabal Gurung – and all have shows have been largely regarded as successes.

And why not? The digital format not only allows the industry a little breathing time during a frenzied week, but it also offers a great alternative to designers who may feel strapped by the burden of putting on a traditional show. “It’s designed to fall into a budget bracket that is between a static presentation and a full runway show,” KCD co-president Ed Filipowski told Vogue UK, in regards to the burgeoning trend. “We’re trying to fill a gap; to provide a service and create something in addition to what is already available.” With today’s designers juggling collaborations, reality TV, cosmetic launches, and mainline collections shown four times a year, it’s easy to understand why a digital show would be very appealing.

Peter Som’s Fall 2013 digital show will stream on Friday, Feb. 13 beginning at 9 a.m. EST. Press and buyers will be able to access the show on digitalfashionshows.com where they will also find information about the collection, including an interview with the designer, and backstage beauty shots.
