RUNWAY: Ralph Lauren FW14
Ralph Lauren, the purveyor of American prep, offers a look at the many lines he offers for FW14, from his high end Purple Label, full of luxurious suits and multi-ply cashmeres, to more rugged looks from Polo Ralph Lauren. For FW14, the New York-born designer plays on familiar themes we've seen throughout the European shows thus far and while still adding that special Ralph Lauren touch, whether it becomes via rounded collars, evoking a turn of the century look, to patchwork on a coat, akin to what he designed the US athletes to wear during the Sochi Olympic games.
