# Loosely Tailored Runway Looks The Peter Som Spring 2013 Ready-To-Wear Collection By Gil Cohen | Published 2012-09-11 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peter-som-spring-2013 References: [honestlywtf](http://honestlywtf.com/collections/peter-som-spring-2013/) & [style](http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/S2013RTW-PSOM) Inspired by "Brooke Astor meets Courtney Love," according to the designer, the Peter Som Spring 2013 Ready-To-Wear collection is the perfect combination of uptown chic and downtown cool. Som gives his models street style-worthy edge with colored streaks in their hair, mint nail polish, bright eye shadow and metallic-strapped shoes; however, none of this takes any attention away from the clothes themselves. Going for a more [relaxed and loose feel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digawel-springsummer-2026) on his [traditional tailored looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26), Peter Som softens structured pieces such as jackets, trousers and dresses with lots of ruching, [feminine patterns, loose fits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow), sugary-sweet colors and lace throughout. He also features his exciting new denim collaboration with Earnest Sewn, which includes a pair of baggy, knee-length shorts in a floral print. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 45% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Relaxed Tailoring:** Opportunity to disrupt the traditional tailored fashion industry by offering more relaxed and loose-fitting options with feminine patterns and ruching. - **Street Style Edge:** Opportunity to disrupt the beauty industry by creating products and techniques that combine high fashion with street style-worthy elements such as colored streaks in hair and bright eye shadow. - **Denim Collaboration:** Opportunity to disrupt the denim industry by partnering with other brands to create unique and stylish collaborations, like the floral print knee-length shorts featured in the Peter Som collection. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation possibilities in the fashion industry through the incorporation of relaxed tailoring, street style edge, and collaborations. - **Beauty:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in the beauty industry by creating products and techniques that merge high fashion with street style-worthy elements. - **Denim:** Disruptive innovation possibilities in the denim industry through strategic collaborations with other brands to create unique and stylish offerings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Modern High-Fashion Dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/terani-couture.md) - [Modern Tailored Spring Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26.md) - [Effortlessly Elegant Womenswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veronica-beard-springsummer-2024.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Pixelated Runway Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixelated.md) - [Transitional Spring Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/splendid-srping-2025.md) - [Romantic Resort Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kallmeyer-resort-2026-collection.md) - [Laid-Back Modernwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digawel-springsummer-2026.md)
