Reconsidering the Perry Ellis Legacy
Perry Ellis designed under his own name from to , when his career and life were cut short by AIDS-related illness. In less than a decade, Ellis established himself in the forefront of American sportswear, establishing a vision for easy, understated dressing that still resonates today.
The designer’s influential career is detailed in a sweeping new monograph by fellow designer Jeffrey Banks — a longtime friend of Ellis’ who met him at a backyard barbecue in and attended every single one of his shows — and coauthor Doria de La Chapelle. “Perry Ellis: An American Original,” to be published by Rizzoli and released on Tuesday, is illustrated with a trove of photographs by Erica Lennard, who lensed almost all of Perry Ellis’ advertising campaigns, along with archival images by Bruce Weber, Arthur Elgort and Roxanne Lowit.
Surprisingly, this is the first comprehensive examination of Perry Ellis’ life and work, apart from a biography penned in by author Jonathan Moor, immediately following the designer’s death. Banks believes that book failed to properly serve the memory of Ellis.
