The young designer Peter Som even named his collection, 'Great Beauties gone Mad'. Claiming to have been inspired by the "tragically elegant" heroines of 'Suddenly, Last Summer' and 'Gray Gardens,' he worked diligently to get that feeling of "reckless glamour" and to impart a decidedly off center couture feeling through his interesting fabric and textures mixes and juxtapositions. It was all about the pairing of silk, cashmere knitwear, donegal tweed, panne velvet, the addition of lurex threads throughout, and of course, mink and chinchilla shrugs and stoles worn with almost everything.
