Ralph Lauren luxury goods

Ralph Lauren is an iconic American fashion brand founded in 1967. While the brand is synonymous with classic American style, its manufacturing is highly globalized. Production occurs in various countries including Italy for high-end Purple Label items, and locations such as China, Vietnam, India, and Sri Lanka for the more common Polo Ralph Lauren lines.

The brand remains under the corporate leadership of Ralph Lauren Corporation, headquartered in New York City. Ralph Lauren himself remains the Executive Chairman and Chief Creative Officer, and the company has stayed as a major independent entity in the luxury fashion market rather than being absorbed by conglomerates like LVMH or Kering. The brand offers everything from high-fashion apparel to home decor and fragrances.
