Guess How Much Money Ralph Lauren Made Last Year?

64481717

Recession be damned! Ralph Lauren, fashion’s favorite billionaire, got a pay raise last year that brought his total compensation to a brand new high.

Wimbledon Uniforms Get A Stylish New Update

57748149

Whether its Federer’s unexpected friendship with Anna Wintour, Nadal’s $525,000 accessory, or Venus Williamson and off-court clothing choices, tennis stars are indisputably some of the most fashion-forward athletes out there. With Wimbledon’s qualifying round this week, we thought we’d call some attention to the other style mavens on the court: the ball girls and boys.

Last night, the first couple hosted Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip for a dinner at Winfield House, the official residence of the American Ambassador to the United Kingdom. And to steer clear of any criticism, the first lady chose some seriously blinged out jewelry and a truly all-American dress from designer Ralph Lauren.

Do You Know The Difference Between Pretty And Cool?

You know those formative moments when the whole way you view the world changes? I had one of those my freshman year of college. This is when I realized you could look good (great, even!) without looking pretty. This is when I learned the difference between pretty and cool.

Oprah Lands Ralph Lauren’s First TV Interview In 20 Years

0-oprahralph

Oprah Winfrey is richer, more successful and has better skin than, well, most people in the world, so it only makes sense that she can get things few others can. Case in point: this Wednesday, with her ground- and record-breaking talk show drawing to a close, Winfrey will interview designer and branding master Ralph Lauren. It will be his first televised interview in 20 years.

Which City Is Chicest? New York & Paris Duke It Out!

Both New York and Paris are considered world fashion capitals, and both cities are near and dear to designer Sophie Theallet‘s heart. But which city is chicest?

PHOTOS: Our Favorite Lots From The CFDA’s Japan Auction

0-cfdaauctions

Lots of brands and individuals in the fashion industry have been quick to find ways to donate money to the people and institutions still reeling from the tsunami and earthquake that struck Japan last month. But strength lies in numbers, which is why we’re especially excited by the way members of the Council of Fashion Designers of America have banded together to auction off over 100 fashion-filled lots and prizes, like front row seats at fashion shows and meetings with some of our favorite designers. All of the proceeds will go to benefit The Japan Society, and we’ve included some of our favorite lots in this post. The auction started on Charity Buzz yesterday and will close on April 28th. Which lots are you bidding on?

Red Carpet: Katie Holmes And Michelle Monaghan In Battle Of The Brunettes

0-thumb

Last night, both Katie Holmes and Michelle Monaghan stepped out in Hollywood to celebrate the premiere of their respective projects. And just as The Kennedys couldn’t be more different from Source Code, Holmes’ mint-colored, knit dress by Ralph Lauren couldn’t have been more different from Monaghan’s snug-as-a-glove white Versace. Which, of course, begs the question: who looked better?

Jessica Simpson Is Gunning For Ralph Lauren’s Branding Empire

0-jessica

Jessica Simpson is a powerful woman. Not only does she have the ability to convince normally sane people that she would actually design a line of heeled swim flippers, her Jessica Simpson Collection empire has projected $1 billion in sales for 2012 — which probably explains why she’s the subject of eight separate stories in today’s issue of Women’s Wear Daily.

Brands In Japan Relocate, Close Doors In Tokyo

63897737

Japanese fashion companies based in Tokyo have largely moved their operations west to Osaka, farther away from the blackouts, limitation of resources and possible nuclear fallout caused by the earthquake and tsunami that hit the region last week. The ones that haven’t moved are taking precautionary measures.

Fashion Icon Iris Apfel Is Designing A Jewelry Collection

0-irisapfeljewelrycollection

Iris Apfel is probably one of our most favorite people in the world. The 89-year-old interior and textiles designer has been a fashion icon ever since she started popping up in Bill Cunningham‘s photo pages in The New York Times, and we’re hard-pressed to think of a person who has a more individual sense of style — for either their homes or their wardrobes. Which is why last night when we ran into her at a party Ralph Lauren threw for newly installed Architectural Digest editor Margaret Russell, we couldn’t help but ask her a few questions about her style, both at home and on the street.

We know we’ve spent a fair amount of this week complaining. We’ve complained about the lines, we’ve complained about the subway, and we’ve complained about the rude publicists who talk down to us and belittle our site. But at the end of the day, it’s a pretty darn cool week to complain about — and when it caps off with a show like Ralph Lauren‘s Fall 2011 collection, all of the walking, lugging, and begging all of a sudden seems worthwhile.

Ralph Lauren’s Luxury Denim Doesn’t Look Like Denim At All

0-ralphlaurencollectiondenim

It was really only a matter of time before Ralph Lauren got into the luxury denim game. After all, there’s not a more classic American designer that Lauren, and there’s not a more classic American wardrobe staple than blue jeans.

How Many Millions Does Your Favorite Fashion CEO Make?

compthumb

Oh, the economy. While many Americans are facing smaller salaries and tighter budgets, the select few who lead publicly traded fashion companies are making more and more each year. Case in point: Michael Jeffries of Abercrombie and Fitch and Glen Senk of Urban Outfitters rose to the top of the pile of earners ranked this week by WWD. Yay, executive compensation

Greg Lauren, nephew of lifestyle brand-unto-himself Ralph Lauren, plans to launch his own luxury clothing label this spring.

In Ralph Lauren’s World, The 4th Dimension Is Scent

0-ponies

Last night, we ventured our way up north to 72nd and Madison, home of both the Ralph Lauren men’s and women’s storea, to witness what the invitation called “THE ULTIMATE COLLISION OF FASHION, ART, & TECHNOLOGY”, emphasis theirs. With no idea what to expect, we hoped for champagne, yummy hors d’oeuvres, and some insight into Mr. Lauren’s so-called “4th Dimension.”

Tommy Hilfiger Admits He’s Jealous Of Ralph Lauren

Tommy Hilfiger was interviewed by Jimmy Fallon for the December issue of Interview, and the results are typical Interview fare — fun, dishy and interesting. What did we learn?

Pink Pony Goes Online For 10th Birthday

For the past ten years, sales of Ralph Lauren‘s Pink Pony collection have been bringing awareness to and raising money for the research of breast cancer. To celebrate that milestone, the company is upping the ante on its fundraising efforts with the first Pink Pony Online Auction. Pink Pony has partnered with Charity Buzz to [...]

Last night, in a ceremony that combined the opening of Ralph Lauren‘s new mansion of a store on New York’s Madison Avenue and the designer’s 71st birthday, Mayor Michael Bloomberg awarded Lauren for his philanthropic work and his leadership in business. He’s the first fashion designer ever to receive the honor.
