Ralph Lauren has long been recognized as one of the most prestigious labels in the world of fashionable apparel. The label was created by Ralph Lauren himself, an American designer who creates a line of clothing and accessories with close attention to detail. He was named as the master marketer for those who are looking for an elegant way of living, but aside from being highly dedicated to designing apparels; Ralph Lauren also manufactures a line of bedding, furniture, potpourri, silverwares, and other things that a typical housewife may consider as important.



Ralph Lauren was born in 1939. He grew up in a working class family, then depriving him the right to study design education formally. So all of his interest and knowledge with designing was only enhanced when he started to engage in fashion retailing. He worked for the department stores in New York while in his young age.

He studied business in a night school, while trying to sell versions of the Brooks Brothers. The experience he gained from his schooling is what particularly brought Ralph Lauren to his formidable position of today in the fashion industry.

Ralph Lauren's entry to fashion design happened during the release of his Beau Brummel neckwear in 1967. During that period, people loved to wear narrow dark ties, but although established as a norm, Lauren introduced a new addition of colorful neckwear. Opulent, colorful, and trendy ties were then produced for every interested businessman to choose from.

1967 was the release year of Lauren's trademark, the menswear collection named Polo. The designs and styles that this line of product boasts are refined, yet featuring the virtues of traditional American and English classics.

In 1971, Ralph Lauren introduced a new line of fashion wear, the women's collection, which was developed in four categories. Included in the list are the classics, collection, active, and country designs. Three years after the introduction of the women's line was the launching of the company's boys wear and fragrances. The other products offered by the House of Ralph Lauren include hosiery, leather goods, jewelry, luggage, sleepwear, and of course Lauren's fragrances.

Ralph Lauren opened his very own boutique in Beverly Hills, California where he released a number of the company's prime secrets. More than a thousand department stores were also opened, each offering a wide selection of Ralph Lauren's fashion products and accessories.

The company further expanded with the coming of new megastores built around New York to carry a line of Ralph Lauren's luxury goods. Now, with many people getting interested in the designs created by Lauren, it is no surprise to find the company itself now considered as one of the best selling marketers in today's modern fashion industry.
