equestrian inspirations - ralph lauren s/s 08







Ralph Lauren isn't just all about polo shirts. it's 40th anniversary spring/summer 08 collection consists of elegant cotour inspired by My Fair Lady. from boyish suits to feminine dresses with oversized hats (by Phillip Treacy and Patricia Underwood), this is truely an awe-ing collection. here are some of my favourites below:

black and white cocktail dress...i love how the hat looks like a trail of ink flowing from it...like a watercolour art piece...



boyish equestrian suit...


statement trench...notice the ankle boots and the yellow...totally an s/s 08 trend


delicate sequins...


pure whites...


feminine florals...another s/s 08 trend, but not hard and overboard like Balenciaga


where you can get Ralph Lauren: Holt Renfrew @ Pacific Centre


*interesting facts: Ralph Lauren was born Ralph Lifshitz and his brother changed their lastname to Lauren at age 16...i wouldn't blame them


Ralph Lauren first dib in the fashion business was when he sold ties to fellow classmates in grade school
