Buenos Dias Senor Lauren

Ralph Lauren at NYFW

Ralph Lauren has delivered some of the most exquisite garments over the years. His spot on tailoring and impeccable eye for good silhouettes have made him an American favorite; even leading him to design the American Olympic team uniforms for the 2012 Olympics. Laurens iconic look has come to epitomize the American Dream. For Spring/Summer 2013 reds, teals and whites adorned models wearing garments inspired by Latin and Spanish cultures. With Matador suits, serapes and fringe, Lauren wove together a visually stunning picture of what Europe would look like at the hands of an inspired designer. It is these looks one would imagine a character out of an Ernest Hemingway novel wearing. But perhaps one of the most inspiring gowns to sashay down the runway was a black, silk, column dress with strands of jet beads draping off the shoulders and down the back. The theatrics didn’t end there; a white blouse dress with a frothy chiffon skirt and a white gown with a plunging neckline and bright red flower on one hip rounded out the collection. Front row guests Jessica Alba and Olivia Wilde could easily be seen wearing any one of Lauren’s exotic creations.
