Ralph Lauren: How I Built a Fashion Empire

[@TheWNK]

Ralph Lauren ad on a Ralph Lauren video. I'm proud of you, KZbin, finally figured out the advertising algorithm

[@emiliachidester3250]

Amazing this guy never even study design, he was a natural born talent.

[@aavalestormiconicperformer]

Think about it. His line has been done many times before. A basic polo shirt that actual early polo players wore. He simply copied what the Anglo Saxon's are wearing and put his spin on it! The aristocracy way of dressing. You can go back 80 years and see those clothes at Harvard, Yale,Princeton.....nothing new yet just another way of doing it. Simplicity is the greatest idea that no one ever thought of!

[@overanalyzing]

King Dome you got it

[@aavalestormiconicperformer]

Thanks Zuriel!

[@ourculturemusic]

You're right! It's really not about inventing but about marketing

[@ms.chanandlerbong2548]

Yep... time and time again: less is more.

[@effexwhore]

No one ever thought of? Minimalism is very popular! But I agree the greatest reason for its success was the branding. Akin to how Steve Jobs transformed Apple.

[@ruzzelladrian907]

My late aunt gave me a Ralph Lauren plaid pattern long sleeve shirt when I was 3, I still have it to this day.

[@Nero-ox5tw]

"At a time of simple ties Ralph offered something new....bright ties" man if only it were that simple today.

[@henooz]

Leonardo Datore it is, kind of. Make bright car tires for example, sounds stupid at first, like bright ties sounded at that time but it might come a big thing in the future.

[@henooz]

Somebody might say 30 years from ow ”man if it were that simple today, cmon colourful tires thats obvious”

[@gatesboy7645]

It’s actually waayyy more simple today, bro we got social media. As a marketer I was horrified thinking what Ralph had to go through on sales and marketing

[@absolutelyfab]

@@gatesboy7645 simpler, but over saturated. Less competition is easier, but it's a matter of perspective.

[@luticia]

What I love about this brand is that it's affordable for (almost) everyone. I buy lots of RL clothes. I buy it online when they are on sale. It's awesome. And then you get some coupons,too.

[@nickparkin8527]

[@A22DNAL]

After hearing how he designed...I don't think this level of advertising has ever been achieved by any other brand. Think about it...seeing the ads, the store windows, the way the garments were all brought together to give this entire lifestyle breath...literally the sole reason I buy RL. Every time I see the logo, touch the fabric, or see an in-store boutique, or standalone store, the feeling inside is immeasurable. It makes you feel like you're living the lifestyle! WOW.

[@teddymcfail4359]

Abercrombie & Fitch did a great job doing this in the mid 90s to early 2000s.

[@A22DNAL]

@@teddymcfail4359 Never😤on the level of RL! They achieved a level of success with it for teens, tweens, twins, and himbos but it never will ever be or feel like a lifestyle brand.

I love Mr. Ralph Lauren he's a great desinger very admirable

[@CarmelaMiles]

"That's the kind of pressure that comes from the immigrants' arriving and thinking that they don't look right, that they are kind of funny-looking and maybe shorter than everyone else, and their clothes aren't expensive...That's why many of them began to sew, so they could imitate the patterns of the day. You were making yourself over. You were turning yourself into an American." -Frick Polykoff, in Malcolm Gladwell's "What the Dog Saw"

[@aavalestormiconicperformer]

The secret to making it is use simple ideas and make the clothing that most everyone would wear! Hence Tommy Hilfiger, Michael Kors etc.

[@milakletsky1510]

I disagree - Hilfiger after becoming a mass production and leaving the company had lost his charm, his zest as the company now is in the hands of investment barons. Ralph fortunately still keeps his elegance and uniqueness, let him not loose it on the stock market pleasing shareholders

[@mulliganstew72]

Mila Kletsky Exactly. And Tommy Hilfiger’s choice of fabrics leaves a lot to be desired. The cuts are all boxy and patterns are prairie-like. Michael Kors… His logo is blinding. His Skinny jeans fit well, I’ll give hm that...but that’s about it. I am from Long Island and Ralph...I grew up with Ralph. He knows what’s up.

[@elvirajameson3753]

Nobody likes Michael Kors except chavs & low level ho's. Tommy Hilfiger is tacky looking.

Anyone who finds this inspirational or interesting please read Michael Gross's"Genuine Authentic". The video sparingly touches on issues and aspects that are more fully addressed in the book.It is an unauthorized biography after M.Lauren denied co-operation. The Audrey Hepburn at the CFDA awards was sad.Reminds me of Halle Berry and Adrian Brody at the Oscars.Read the book.

[@mickieleong2068]

Ralph Lauren was my #1 most favorite fashion idol since the 70s (when I was living in New York) until 2000 (Hong Kong and Shanghai). Unfortunately, in the past 10 years, the men's collection (which was meant to be classical timeless and bold and great taste) have deviated and deteriorated to "mediocrity and lost all its characteristics and uniqueness". Ralph Lauren has retrenched the BLUE label (which is Ralph Lauren's core value and soul and the greatest), and introduced BLACK LABEL (which was horrific) and BLUE label (which is boring and too pricy) ... I am so sad to see my favorite Ralph declined in the past decade to now. I still love to visit the stores which is still beautiful, but always walking out emptied handed and disappointed. I was in the Paris and Hong Kong flagship stores recently, and the men's wear is nothing like the past and so disappointing ! If Ralph Lauren wants to revamp and restore its GLORY days of 70s to 90s, and siginificantly improves its brand image, consumer love, revenue and profits, please let me know !!! I love to help and guarantee big turnaround success !!! .
