Peter Som’s Paint by Numbers

Models with tangerine streaks in their hair showed off Peter Som‘s brilliantly bright spring collection at MILK Studios yesterday. From head to toe they were soaked in grenadine, shocking fuchsia, and cobalt blue. Charlotte Olympia ditched last season’s experimental kitten heel and offered Som platform loafers and stacked, ankle-strap sandals in their place. If the collection were a paint by number, it’s read like:
26: The total appearances made by tangerine. Four times in a super-rose printed pant, coat, bikini, and skirt, once as a solid sablé dress, and five times on Charlotte Olympia loafers. The sixteen models with streaks of orange in their hair gave this color the lead.
11: How many vibrant colors Peter Som incorporated into his collection: tangerine, citrus, cobalt, grenadine, yellow, ochre, fuchsia, powder blue, pink, blue, and lipstick.
8: The varieties of blues, in both Hawaiian prints and happy solids: powder blue, blueprint, cobalt, blue static, blue summer tweed, denim, and cobalt mini-rose. (Not to mention Charlotte Olympia’s blue stacked heels.)
5: The number of solid-color looks paired with different color heels—a sort of spring ode to fall’s colorblocking mania. A tangerine dress and a cobalt t-shirt dress were both paired with tan heels, a “lipstick” pleated dress with black and white heels, an ochre eel panel dress with blue heels and a fuchsia dress styled with tangerine heels.
4: The variety of blues in just one look: 23’s degradé striped pleated sweater dress.
3: The number of times Peter Som mix-and-matched colorful prints. The best example of Som’s expert use of color came in look 14, where he mixed citron, fuchsia, pink, and tangerine without making his model, Antonia, look like a bowl of rainbow sherbet.
