Ralph Lauren is in a down-to-earth mood.
The designer kicked off fall 2026 New York Fashion Week with a tonal collection in shades of brown, from sienna and umber to peat. He mixed his signature suiting with corsetry and chainmail, embellishing pieces with shimmering copper and bronze embroideries. Silhouettes were long, languid and layered with jewelry, wide belts and eclectic jewelry. The vibe was artistic.
Fittingly, Ralph’s front row was lined with artists, including Anne Hathaway, Lana del Rey, Emilia Jones, Diana Silvers, Lili Reinhart, Ariana DeBose, Morgan Spector and Rebecca Hall. They mingled after the show in Tribeca’s Clock Tower Building, a beaux arts landmark decorated for the occasion with Persian rugs, hand-painted scenic murals and plush velvet curtains.
“This was the most amazing collection I’ve ever seen,” said del Rey, who rocked an archive cream prairie top and skirt, cowboy boots and a weathered leather blazer from the house. “I love that we’re staying western. I feel like it’s a little genre anyone can dip in and out of all the time, but it’s one that I like to stay in all the way to bedtime.”
Del Rey attended with her hubby of 16 months, Jeremy Dufrene, a Louisianian who runs alligator tours in the local marsh and cypress swamps. Just this week, he Instagrammed a picture of the couple before they tied the knot with the message: “this precious woman wrapped her warm soul around my heart. love you forever.”
“TASK” star Emilia Jones, who perched between Diana Silvers and Lili Reinhart, was taking mental notes during the show. “I was obsessed with everything,” said the bubbly British actor. “Normally, you have one standout favorite, but honestly there were like seven or eight pieces for me for sure. As an actor, when you have premieres and press, you’re thinking of things to wear. But there were so many pieces that I would wear in my everyday life.”
From the bayou to the boardroom to the ballroom, Ralph has you covered.
