Modernizing Perry Ellis’ Commerce Experience

Perry Ellis needed to modernize its mobile shopping experience to remain relevant with a style-driven, mobile-first menswear audience. The project focused on redefining the brand’s digital presence while improving clarity, confidence, and conversion on mobile.

Passion project exploring how Perry Ellis could modernize its identity and digital presence.

The Challenge

Perry Ellis has strong brand heritage, but its digital experience no longer reflects the expectations of today’s menswear consumer.
 The outdated mobile experience risked disengaging younger shoppers and weakened the brand’s ability to compete with modern, editorial-driven menswear brands.

The challenge was to evolve the brand while delivering a mobile shopping experience that improves clarity, confidence, and conversion for modern menswear shoppers.

Identity System

The updated look creates a cleaner, more contemporary foundation that strengthens brand presence across digital and mobile touchpoints.
