Last week, Ralph Lauren presented a Fall 2017 fashion show in a unique, immersive experience at Ralph’s Garage on his private home in Bedford, New York.
Set against the spectacular backdrop of one of the world’s most esteemed automotive collections, the show presented Lauren’s passion for automobiles and classic, enduring style, in front of the likes of Katie Holmes, Dianne Keaton, Jessica Chastain and Nina Dobrev.
Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid walked the runway with race-inspired looks, connecting the elements of speed, style and beauty of the designer’s handcrafted vehicles, with the very modern, yet timeless spirit of clothes. To heighten the experience, for the first time, men wearing looks from Ralph Lauren’s Purple Label collection joined the women on a runway lined with the designer’s cars in the pristine environment of his Garage.
Models and celebrities had exclusive access to the prolific American designer’s vintage car collection, which included his 1955 Mercedes Gullwing purchased in the 1980s, and his award-winning 1938 Bugatti 57CSC Atlantic.
