Her:"you didn't design it?"

Forever my idol

I idolize Ralph Lauren not for the classy clothes he makes but for the caliber of gentleman that he is. Even after coming into his own and creating his own brand he is still a very humble individual that enjoys what he does which is very admirable.

He opened a cancer screening center in Harlem, NYC. Nice man.

[sandraa.lelacheur]

This was a phenomenal interview.
I have always loved his clothing.
It doesn’t matter if your dressing
up or down…his collection’s had
something for both.
He took care of everyone. ♥️

“But remember it’s how the clothes make you feel” This is why Ralph is my favorite designer.. I’ve watched this interview a million times and every time I get more and more inspired.. I went from if it wasn’t polo I didn’t want it now I can go to Walmart buy a shirt throw a polo hat on and find some 20 dollar jeans and have more drip than someone with a Gucci fit on 🤷🏽‍♀️

Very honest and mostly modest Gentleman.. May God continue to bless him. Love the content by the way

I LOVED getting hand-me-downs from my older sister. She was such a trend setter in her own way, so whatever she passed down to me, I thought it was better than something brand new. It had her seal of approval. She only passed it down because it didn’t fit her anymore.

LOVE Ralph Lauren. He has exquisite taste. I have been wearing his clothes ever since I was in my teens. My son was raised in Ralph Lauren clothes and still wears them. This man is the Einstein of tasteful fashion. Forget Armani, Channel, PRada and all those clown clothes that no one can wear in public. Ralph Lauren is the real deal!!!

What a genuinely nice person, I love Ralph and his values.

[maryanneevans]

In 1982 I chose a Ralph Lauren, beautiful jacket and suit pattern. My mother made it for me in a deep blue velvet and I wore it for my quinceanera party. I was given the choice of a big party or a two week trip to Costa Rica and chose the trip. I have since the continued to appreciate craftmanship and elegant design. I love to embroider, aman amateur callligrapher and quilter. Next I want to learn to make lace in the traditional manner from Galicia, Spain. Thank you Mr. Lauren I like you even more now that I know your from the Bronx - generations of hard working, no nonsese, good folks. :) God bless you.

Wonderful man with no pretense. I’ve always loved his clothing, furniture etc but only recently had my own epiphany - he’s a great man with a great wife and family and he wants what we all want. How I missed that for so long, I don’t know.

Ralph Lauren is among my top 3 most admired people. I love his beautiful wife, Ricky, and what they have created in relationship. I returned to college at 48 and did a presentation about Ralph Lauren. I drove from Texas to the Double R Ranch gate(s) near Telluride CO to get photos. I’ll never forget that road trip and how I felt standing there in awe of the beauty. BTW, I was wearing my favorite Ralph Lauren red thin-wale corduroy pants with vintage cowboy boots. 😉

He seems like a nice guy! I do love his clothes. I big nautical girl, love his perfume too
His daughters candy store is cool too 🙂

Ralph is always so down to earth. Classy and caring...he’d be just as happy without tons of money. He’s about lifestyle and living your life with a vision. I’ve always enjoyed that. You can call it advertising, yes, but he lives it as well. Hemingway Fishing in Key West...he did two Sportsman collections focused on this lifestyle among many many others....all fun stuff. He’s a family Man with great American Style.
Truly successful people do things because they are passionate about... and make money as a result...it’s not always their primary focus. I’ve always enjoyed the photo of him when he was a young boy wearing the Military Jacket with a Moose sweater....he had that vision for his own style...then created the Polo lifestyle after. I’ve been collecting Polo since 1993 and I enjoy it as much as Ralph did creating it.
