Perry Ellis Delves Into Children's Apparel

Fishman & Tobin has been tapped by Perry Ellis International to design and distribute branded boys' apparel, as well as girls' and boys' school uniforms.

The uniform range will be created under the Perry Ellis, Perry Ellis Portfolio and Perry Ellis America brands. All collections will be available this fall across several channels of retail distribution in the U.S. and Canada. No further details have been released about the Perry Ellis-branded boys' apparel line.

"This is a great opportunity to extend the Perry Ellis brand to another complementary category with a licensee that clearly interprets the essence of the Perry Ellis lifestyle," says Oscar Feldenkreis, president and chief operating officer of Perry Ellis International. "We look forward to a great partnership with such an industry leader as Fishman & Tobin."
