#NYFW:Men / — In the spirit of change and contrast, Perry Ellis Creative Director Michael Maccari eschews a traditional runway approach this season. Instead he stands his models in a stark, industrial space, backed by a floral collage; to focus on each of his distinct ideas. This transition from the traditional runway show further underscores his conviction that we are living in a new era; and our clothes, and how we wear them, will change with the times.
For his Spring/Summer 2017 Collection, Maccari is responding to the current social and political themes of globalization, cultural synthesis and diversity. In his own signature “Very Perry” way, he riffs, mixes and subverts with traditional menswear shapes, and collages with fabrics and prints.
