Ralph Lauren Autumn / Winter 20009/10: Simple elegance

From the seller to the fashion designer

His first experiences in the fashion business Ralph Lauren collected as a salesman at the traditional company Brooks Brothers. In 1968 he became self-employed and founded the tie shop Polo Fashions. A little later Ralph Lauren designed his first men's collection 'Polo Menswear Co.'. Later, they added the label 'Ralph Lauren's Women's Wear' and 'Ralph Lauren Home Collection'. The range of products has been expanded suksezive. In addition to the numerous lines such as 'Polo Ralph Lauren', 'Polo Sport', 'Ralph Lauren Menswear', 'Ralph Lauren Collection' and 'Classics' & 'Double RL', the designer now also has interior design, children's fashion, accessories, wellness Products and perfumes on offer. His légère leisure line "POLO" is by far the best known line.

The logo and figurehead of the brand, a polo player embroidered on the chest, became a status symbol and Yuppie distinctive feature, especially in the nineties, similar to the Lacoste crocodile. Even today, the label is primarily for a clean, unobtrusive look. Ralph Lauren's fashion is neither flashy nor pushy, but blends sporty elegance with Harvard, Yale's and Princeton's Ivy League's traditional college looks.

Whether pastel polo shirts, an embroidered American flag on the chest, cable cardigans or sweaters and sweatshirts with colored block stripes - no other designer embodies the 'casual look' or the 'all American look' better than Ralph Lauren. Happy Birthday!
