Carlisle's NYC & Greenwich Showrooms Launch of 2011 Carlisle & Per Se Collections

Women who have made New Year's resolutions to look effortlessly stylish and "put together" throughout 2011 will cherish knowing that, beginning today, they can make a private, one-hour appointment with their local Carlisle/Per Se consultant to get their Spring wardrobe in order. Carlisle and Per Se, two contemporary, upscale clothing lines designed for busy, stylish women, have just launched their Spring 2011 collections. These new collections will be shown together in luxurious Carlisle/Per Se Showrooms in NYC and Greenwich, CT, as well home-based trunk shows across the U.S.

"Spring is my favorite time of year and that's reflected in both of our new collections' celebration of color," said Bill Rondina, Founder, CEO and Chairman of The Connaught Group, the creators of Carlisle and Per Se. "Whether it's our daffodil-colored jeans, turquoise cashmere wraps, or dresses with hints of Madrid red, our clients are sure to look fashion-forward and ready to take on the world."

Rondina points out, "The dress is the new "power suit" this season, especially when it's an ultra-stylish sheath, topped with a long and lean jacket. Our clients will enjoy out takes on the nautical theme this season with one of our "regatta chic" numbers, featuring a sophisticated re-working of classic red, white and blue. Per Se is all about stripes this Spring, whether they pop up in a blouse or chain-trimmed jersey. We've also embraced modern geometry with a series of to-die-for prints with cubist tendencies that would make Picasso proud."
In all, Carlisle and Per Se's designers have come up with over 500 unique pieces for spring, ranging in size from 0 to 16, that work both separately and in unison to give women the most exciting wardrobes possible for their money.

Through a direct-sales business model, Carlisle and Per Se are able to offer women couture-quality clothing at extremely competitive prices not possible in stores. The lines are sold four times a year through private, one-on-one appointments. Both Carlisle and Per Se can be seen when attending a showing. This business model is proving to be quite popular with high-profile women looking for smart ways to refresh their wardrobes. Indeed, executives from diverse corporations such as Bloomberg, General Electric, Sotheby's and JPMorgan Chase shop with Carlisle/Per Se due to the quality wardrobes they achieve alongside the highly personalized service they enjoy with their Carlisle/Per Se wardrobe consultant.
