Ralph Lauren :
Collected Seasons
Overview :
Staged at Signal Gallery Bushwick with Tim Bruniges' Installation Mirrors (2014) as its backdrop, this photo series represents
my collected RLX Ralph Lauren seasons, designed between Fall 2011 - Summer 2014.
Setting this series in the austere, disciplined environment of Signal provides a visceral counterpoint to the technical, synthetic elements of the collected work presented, and highlights the naturalistic, worn elements that exist in tandem within the range.
The juxtaposition in styling true performance garments with luxurious lounge items within
this series was the spark that would influence my later design direction at Lululemon Lab.
Waterproof Softshells, Polartec Knit / Woven Run Hybrids, Windproof Sherpa Fleece and Heat-Embossed Double Faced Half Zips meet Down-Filled Washed Cotton Outerwear, Rustic Cargo Pants and gauzy Pima Duofold Joggers.
All are united within the framework of fluid ergonomic cutlines and silhouettes, with
a focus on designing for the Body in motion.
