"Peter Pan" collars

It is usually a flat collar with rounded ends meeting in front. 

The name of the collar is a reference to Peter Pan, a fictional character who lives in Neverland 

in the novel of the same name, written by J.M. Barrie in the early 1900s.

 The shape and name of the Peter Pan collar appear to have originated in the mid-twentieth century. 

The design became very popular for school uniforms, and began to spill over into popular culture.

Despite being named after a masculine character, the Peter Pan collar is associated primarily 

with feminine wear, and rarely appears in men's fashion. Peter Pan collars turned up all over the

Fall/Winter 2011-2012 runways.The trend has been embraced on the red carpet as well 

and of course we can see it in street style all over the globe.
