Ralph Lauren was here first. Read his latest interview in Elle Decor.
“Wearing Ralph Lauren, or living with it as bed linens or wallcoverings or a chair’s slipcover, always makes you feel as if you’re playing a part in a larger and longer narrative. Maybe you’re Cary Grant or Grace Kelly or Katharine Hepburn; maybe Faye Dunaway or Steve McQueen. You might also feel the style of Ralph and Ricky Lauren guiding you, images of the couple in the Hamptons or in Colorado or in Jamaica or in a country estate on a loop in your mind’s eye. But ultimately, and this is perhaps the key to it all, the story is always ultimately about you.”
