Ralph Lauren takes fashionistas to the Hamptons for spring show

BRIDGEHAMPTON — Veteran designer Ralph Lauren chose the upscale Hamptons seaside resort for his Spring 2025 fashion show on Thursday, inviting fashionistas, celebrities and US First Lady Jill Biden to his “home away from home.”

The designer, 84, presented his Ralph Lauren Collection, Purple Label, and Polo Ralph Lauren lines for men, women, and children at the show held in Bridgehampton on the eve of New York Fashion Week. (Watch the show here: https://www.ralphlauren.com/ )

Actors Naomi Watts, Justin Theroux, Colman Domingo, Tom Hiddleston and Jude Law as well as singer Usher were among the famous faces seated in the front row and models Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington took to the runway.

“The Hamptons is more than a place. It’s a natural world of endless blue skies, the ocean, green fields and white fences, rusticity and elegance… It has been home, my refuge and always an inspiration,” Mr. Lauren said in a statement.

Models wore blazers paired with loose trousers, tailored suits as well as floaty white and pale blue dresses. There were plenty of stripes and fringes on designs, some crochet outfits, and shimmering sparkles for eveningwear in a color palette of mainly white, blue and khaki.

Bright colors — green, red, yellow and orange — featured in the Polo Ralph Lauren collection with outfits nodding to the Hamptons’ equestrian history.

New York Fashion Week kicked off on Sept. 6 and runs until Sept. 11. — Reuters
