Trend Spotting: Peter Pan Collar

      The new and at the same time very old trend- peter pan collar- is gaining a lot of popularity now. Fashion repeats itself. Those trends which were super hot in our grandma's times are becoming as hot nowadays. We can love or hate them but its a natural cycle we cant avoid.
      The peter pan collar is a small, flat, round-cornered collar without a stand, popular for women and children clothing in the early and mid-20's. They were widely presented in the fall/winter collections by Giambattista Vally, DKNY and Louis Vuitton.Peter pan collars look good on top of a sweater and can make an outfit look vintage or girly.
      What do you think of this fashion trend, hot or not??????????
