This season, many designers seemed to be inspired by Raf Simons' hugely successful and heavily peplumed spring/summer 2011 collection for Jil Sander. What then seemed like a fun and quirky accent to a minimalist ensemble was reworked in many incarnations this time around, like the futuristic metal peplum at Cushnie et Ochs or the hippie chic peplum at Thakoon. Whether you prefer chic and retro or something edgier, a peplumed ensemble will be the go-to trend for spring/summer 2012.
