On Thursday, Ralph Lauren presented its Spring/Summer 2023 collection with a special showcase of the World of Lauren in Southern California. In a runway full of details, Lauren resurrected archival styles from the brand's various lines, from Polo to Purple Label to RRL. A first for the renowned brand, Lauren staged a “special fashion experience” inspired by the multifaceted lifestyles of the West Coast. Lauren took from the world of sports, prep, and understated luxury that exists within the margins of the golden state. “I have always been inspired by the natural beauty, the heritage, and glamor of the West Coast of America. California has always been a land of dreams and contradictions—rugged coasts and red carpets,” said Lauren. “For the first time ever, I bring my dream of living here, sharing my worlds in an experience that celebrates a way of life I have always believed in—a mix of grit and glamour, energy and inspiration."

The World of Ralph Lauren began with models emerging from the gardens’ central museum with 19th-century western life-inspired menswear—cowboy boots, silver belts, prep linen tailoring, effortless lightweight knits, all of which express the elegance and sophistication of California. Nautical pieces in red splashed the aquatic and breezy atmosphere of the glamour that exists in the state. The Polo pieces had more of a relaxed yet preppy style accompanied by colorful ‘90s aesthetics. For the little fashionistas, the childrenswear collection included tweed blazers, cricket sweaters, and a mix of matching pieces from menswear. Neon, green, yellow, red, and blue were the palette of colors painting Polo. 

The impressive fashion show was followed by a seated dinner catered by the Polo Bar, with A-listers making up the crowd. Notable guests include Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck, Jessica Chastain, John Legend, Robin Wright, Diane Keaton, Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Laura Dern, Lily Collins, Charlie McDowell, Maggie Rogers, Mindy Kaling, Chris Pine, James Marsden, Angus Cloud, Cole Sprouse, Sylvester Stallone, Kathryn Newton, Diego Calva, Wisdom Kaye, Kelsey Merritt, Amelie Zilber, Blake Grey, Noah Beck, Aimee Song Vinnie Hacker, Laura Love, and Emily Mariko.
