Ralph Lauren’s NYFW Show Was a Party For the Ages

Ralph Lauren’s New York Fashion Week show played host to a whos-who of Hollywood on Saturday, with famous faces like Henry Golding, Mandy Moore, Cate Blanchett, and Janelle Monáe to name a few. The 1920s-inspired line which featured sequin evening gowns and timeless men’s formalwear was housed in “Ralph’s Club”- a Wall Street Bank that had been decorated as an Art Deco, prohibition-era club for the night. 

Not only were the guests A-listers, but so were the models: the Hadid sisters and Joan Smalls (to name a few) strutted around the makeshift club and showed off the designer’s looks. Meanwhile, guests outfitted in a mandatory black-and-white dress code whet their appetites with top-shelf cocktails and hors d’oeuvres. 

Lauren’s roaring twenties inspired collection was focused on a women’s tuxedo, with a twist: button-detailing, high-waisted pants, brightly colored jackets, and suede undershirts. Some more feminine pieces included spectacular evening dresses with see-through paneling, feathered bodices, and sequins everywhere. The most memorable looks of the evening included Bella Hadid’s red sequins gown with a revealing neckline, a dark purple and black velvet womenswear tux, and a shimmering black leather minidress.
