Ralph Lauren unveiled his Spring 2025 collection during a special fashion show held in the village of Bridgehampton, near New York, which he considers his “home away from home.”
As part of the show, models from the Ralph Lauren Collection, Purple Label and Polo Ralph Lauren collections for men, women and children were presented.
“The entire Hamptons is more than just a place on a map. It is a natural world of endless blue sky, ocean, green fields and white fences, rusticity and elegance. It has always been my home, my refuge and a source of inspiration,” said Ralph Lauren for the agency Reuters.
The show featured models dressed in classic model silhouettes. There were white loose trousers to the waist, often combined with a blue shirt and beige accessories, as well as elegant and romantic dresses, which contrasted with more relaxed denim looks or riding-style models, which featured fringes and belts with a distinctive buckle.
About designer Ralph Lauren
Ralph Lifshitz was born in 1939 in the Bronx, New York. He graduated from high school of commerce. Even as a teenager, he faced bullying at school because of his name, which contained the English word shit. He therefore decided to give up his native surname, which referred to his roots, and changed his name to the American-sounding Ralph Lauren.
After school, his steps led to the army, where he only warmed up for a while. After returning to New York, he began working as a clerk at Brooks Brothers. At that time, he participated in a polo match for the first time.
The world of high society literally enchanted him, so he decided to found his own fashion brand, which was inspired by this sport. After all, the now notorious polo player also became the logo for his then fledgling company.
His work reflects the history and present of the United States of America. His collections are often inspired by the Wild West, Indians, the period of the economic crisis, but also the era of golden Hollywood and the atmosphere of the so-called Ivy League universities (a sports association of eight elite private universities in the northeastern USA).
In addition to the available collections that he creates under the Polo Ralph Lauren brand, he also designs luxurious gowns under his own name, which often appear on the red carpet. In addition to fashion, she is also involved in the production of perfumes and interior design.
He is a big car lover and also boasts one of the most valuable car collections in the world.

The men’s collection featured classic blazers, tailored suits and refined shirts in shades of blue and white that mimicked the hues of the Long Island coastline.
The Polo Ralph Lauren collection shined with vibrant colors and bold patterns that honor the Hamptons resort’s legendary equestrian history.
The designer also introduced a new type of luxury handbag called “The Ralph”, which is inspired by his passion for cars.
The catwalk was full of seasoned models including Christy Turlington and Naomi Campbell. Popular stars such as singer Usher or actors Jude Law or Justin Theroux shone in the first rows.
