NYFW: Ralph Lauren Fall 2014


Subdued greys, a touch of pastel pink, a pin-striped suit here and there and a swarm of elegant evening gowns. Ralph Lauren delivered a show today which was indeed classic, elegant and beautiful. As seen at most New York Fashion Week shows, for fall 2014 grey colours and fur accessories seem to be taking the spotlight at the moment, and Lauren was not going to be left out of this pretty trend. 

There were a-symmetric gowns wrapped tightly around the body, grey tailored suits with additional purple ascots, pink capes teamed with straight trousers and of course, classic Lauren halter neck gowns which wouldn't look amiss on the Academy Awards red carpet. Layering was also a big part of this collection, as scarves, waistcoats and coats were worn together with large fur stoles, which sure did look toasty warm for the cold winter months in New York. As always, the materials and fabrics looked stunning, completely faultless and totally desirable. Hair and make up was also kept simple and natural, with hair slicked back in elegant buns while eyes and cheeks looked naturally untouched, with a hint of blush. 

I loved this collection and the hints of Hollywood glamour which Lauren made sure crept through the entire collection. From the fur stoles to the column dresses - Marilyn Monroe or Angelina Jolie could wear this collection and still look chic and beautiful. From the soft colours, to the purest of white suits. From the t-bar heels to the 'Ricki' bags. Ralph delivered another masterpiece of a show! Now its on to Marc Jacobs and then...London!
