00:00Last week marked the first ever New York Fashion Week dedicated just to men's
00:04clothes. And, while this mattered deeply to some, it also begs the question...
00:10Do you think that most men in America care about fashion?
00:13No.
00:14Eh, not really.
00:16You can always care a little bit more.
00:18Most men, no.
00:19You look at me. Do I look like I'm a fashion person?
00:22Most men just wear whatever they want to wear and don't really think about it.
00:26Clearly, there was a disconnect. So I decided to ask the experts at Perry Ellis.
00:31I think every guy can convey who he is with his brand through his appearance.
00:37Break it down for us. What are you wearing today?
00:39I'm wearing a collar because I was scared that my grandparents picked a nice restaurant and
00:43I wasn't going to get let in.
00:44It's just jeans I had for a long time.
00:46A t-shirt that was given to me by the company I work for.
00:50I wore this shirt yesterday.
00:52Ooh!
00:52Yeah, exactly.
00:53I'm wearing some dress shoes that were passed down from my brother Jim.
00:57What is the worst thing a guy could wear?
01:00Unfluttering jean with like a bad wash and a bootleg.
01:04An anti-fitting shirt.
01:06Probably some random graphic sports tee.
01:10Tipitina's shirt. It's a jazz bar in New Orleans.
01:14Some random thing that's just kind of thrown together.
01:16How long did it take you to get dressed today?
01:17Um, as long as it took to put the clothes on.
01:20When it comes to Men's Fashion Week, is seeing believing?
01:23Oh gosh.
01:24Will you come to a fashion show with me right now?
01:27A fashion show right now?
01:29Right now.
01:30Uh, yeah, yeah.
01:32Clear your schedule. We're going. Let's go.
01:45I could tell Richie was impressed, but overwhelmed.
01:50It was time for one more show.
01:56Backstage.
02:14Richie was way into it. But we had one more surprise. Obviously we had to deck him out.
02:20So Richie, how do you feel?
02:23I feel amazing. Spectacular. I just had the best day ever.
02:28I had no idea what fashion was this morning. I thought it was kind of a high-class thing,
02:33but that wasn't for me. But everybody was cool. Everybody was chill. I had so much fun.
02:39So many free pickles and free food. And I was like backstage with all the cool guys.
02:45Look at me now. I stepped up my swag big time.
02:48You're swagging.
02:49No Men's Fashion Week may not affect everyone, but you can have some fun with it.
02:54And maybe even get a little inspired. Like this guy.
03:00My work here is done.
03:01And I just changed my反 и разhing.
03:03I love you.
03:03I love you.
03:03I love you.
03:03I love you.
03:03I love you too.
