Applicants for the “Perry Ellis: MAKE ME OVER!” contest must send a ‘before’ picture and submit a minimum 200 word essay stating why they would like a ‘new look for fall’ from Perry Ellis.
Your essay will then be submitted to our panel of judges (which will include Perry Ellis Sr. Vice President of Design & Merchandising John Crocco; Senior Vice-President of Marketing Pablo de Echevarria; the founders of our New York based advertising agency Charles DeCaro and Rocco Laspata) to select the 10 national winners.
Winners will then go into a participating Perry Ellis retailer across the country and meet with our local Retail Coordinator to get their new fall look by Perry Ellis, and have their ‘after’ photo taken! Applicants will be judged based upon a minimum 200 word written essay that demonstrates need, persuasiveness, creativity and originality.
Applicants must be 18 years of age and a citizen of the United States. Click here to view contest rules (insert link to official contest rules).
