Perry Ellis SS 2011

With a resort mentality and the yummy sherbert colors of Miami beach, this is what the brand’s base naturally came to.

The color palette uses fresh coral and melon hues and spring green and rose with neutral tones to ground the collection.  Speaking of the coral, tangerine colors used, “I just love that color this season,” Mr. Crocco said. “Not head to toe, but you can throw in a piece and it really works.

In my experience, men are not afraid of color. You just have to show them how to wear it properly.”With tons of tailored seperates done in whites or grays mixed with sporty wear in quirky hues and placid stripes and check, this collection put the ’50s dad to shame.

The tidy retro styling was pleasant and mild, right through to the finale which featured male models in swim trunks.. Talk about yummy.
