Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On February 20, 2014, Alexandra Wilson was elected to the Board of Directors of Perry Ellis International, Inc. (the “Company”). Ms. Wilson is a co-founder of Gilt, the innovative online shopping destination, and has extensive experience in merchandising, business development, sales, branding, marketing and social media. Ms. Wilson will serve on the nominating, governance, investment and compensation committees of the Company’s Board of Directors. As a director of the Company, she will be entitled to receive grants under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2005 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

For the fiscal year ended February 1, 2014, the Company received approximately $395,000 from Gilt in connection with sales of certain Company products on the Gilt.com website. This amount represents less than 5% of the Company’s expected revenues for the fiscal year. During the current fiscal year, the Company anticipates continuing to offer certain products on the Gilt.com website, although the Company also anticipates that the amounts it expects to receive from Gilt will remain less than 5% of the Company’s revenues.

Contemporaneously with Ms. Wilson’s appointment to the Board, Eduardo M. Sardiña will transition off the Board. In connection with his departure, the Board approved the accelerated vesting of 5,707 unvested shares granted under the Plan.

A copy of the press release announcing the election of Ms. Wilson and Mr. Sardiña’s departure is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein.
