For the first time, Ralph Lauren opened the doors to his legendary garage outside New York City to unveil his Fall 2017 collection, which draws inspiration from Mr. Lauren’s long-standing passion for timeless automotive design. The presentation had models walking beside Ralph Lauren's multi-million dollar collection of classic vehicles.
"My cars have always been an inspiration to me" says Ralph Lauren. "I see them as moving art. My women's collection for Fall 2017 connects the elements of the speed, style, and beauty of these handcrafted vehicles with the very modern yet timeless spirit of the clothes. There is a sleekness, an innate sexiness and power to shapes sculpted out of high-tech patent leathers and high gloss silks."
Ralph Lauren watchmaking collection also takes inspiration from its founder's passion for old cars. The details from the automotive world, and particularly from Mr. Lauren’s Bugatti cars, extend throughout the Automotive Collection.
