The Show: Perry Ellis by Duckie Brown
The Theme: Classic wear with a mix of modern-day prints
The Signature, Standout Look: For the fall season at Perry Ellis, expect warm hues such as mustards, greens, and maroons. Also noted were the combination of preppy, conservative elements paired with sportiet garments, such as bomber jackets, leather coats, and parkas, to give it a modern cool yet sophisticated update to the label. However, what really stood out from many of these runway looks was the approachable paisley print in subdued colors, found on jackets and trousers.

The Show: Love by Diego Binetto
The Theme: Romance and goth styles collide
The Color Palette: Red and black with a touch of grey
The Signature, Standout Look: With Love by Diego Binetti, it’s easy to see the feminine detailing attributes, including ruffles, pleats, and lace, however Binetti incorporates Victorian-inspired and Goth attitudes by using various shades of red and black, asymmetrical structurse and oversized, wrapped and tied garments. Binetti’s creative genius was in full-gear by tackling two very opposing styles and creating a collection that has the right amount of playful and edge and price point, making his amazing aesthetic accessible to all this fall.
