Не могла пройти мимо этой информации:-) Ralph Lauren для меня воплощение эстетики и манифест образа жизни 😊 (А какие у них пиджаки……😊) Interesting facts about Ralph Lauren 🔹️️Early life and name Ralph Lazarus Landau was born on October 14 1939 in the Bronx, New York. He changed his last name to “Lauren” after the actor Lauren Hutton, because he liked the sound of it. 🔹️️First product In 1967 he started his own company with a single product: a red, narrow‑tied necktie sold to women’s stores. The tie’s bright color and high quality made it an instant hit. 🔹️️Iconic logo The famous “polo player” logo was created in 1971. It was inspired by a photograph of a polo match that Ralph saw in a magazine; the logo now appears on everything from shirts to fragrances. 🔹️️First store The first Ralph Lauren boutique opened in 1971 on Madison Avenue in New York City. It was called “Ralph Lauren Polo” and sold a full line of men’s and women’s clothing. 🔹️️Hollywood connection Lauren designed the suits for the 1974 film The Great Gatsby. The classic, 1920s‑style costumes helped make the movie’s look famous and linked the brand with timeless elegance. 🔹️️Philanthropy He has donated millions of dollars to charities supporting cancer research, education and the arts. In 2015 he gave $100 million to the New York Historical Society to preserve its archives. 🔹️️️️Lifestyle brand Beyond clothing, Ralph Lauren created home‑goods, furniture, fragrances, eyewear, watches and even a line of hotels called “Ralph Lauren Hotels”. 🔹️️American Dream story Starting as a humble salesman for a tie‑manufacturer, he built a global empire that is now worth more than $6 billion. His success is often cited as a modern version of the “rags‑to‑riches” American Dream. 🔹️️Personal style Even after decades in fashion, Lauren still dresses in the classic look he promotes: a navy blazer, white shirt, and a silk tie—an outfit he calls “the perfect American look”. 🔹️️Family He has four children. His son, David Lauren, works as chief creative officer for the brand, helping to keep the family business alive for the next generation.
