RUNWAY: Perry Ellis SS16

Michael Maccari is Perry Ellis' new man in charge and he clearly got the note that one of SS16's biggest trends is transparency. There were super thin and lightweight layers at Ellis' SS16 show like cool knits and shirts that are perfect for layering or just letting it all hang out for the world to see. The idea of freedom was also seen throughout the collection, like bolder patterns and roomier silhouettes but also the label's freedom from being associated with stodgy department store wears. It should also be noted that the models wore the label's new compression layers underneath, as evidenced by some of the athletic looks, with a peek at the tights worn under shorts.
