I don't know what Peter Som did in his past life, but it couldn't of been anything good. The designer has been having a steady stream of bad luck. First with Bill Blass, and now he's cancelled his Fall 2009 runway show because Creative Design Studios has broken their partnership with him. The reason behind the seperation is because the Studio is planning on focusing more on "core businesses" like the department store rather than "strategic partnerships" like Som's line(ouch). "We have realized that our strategic interests are no longer aligned and feel that this is the best direction for our company at this time," Elana Posner(CEO and President of Creative Design Studios) said. Only thing left, is a cow to fall on Som's head.
