Ralph Lauren made 20s alive again, among glitz, prohibitionism and a irrepressible desire for freedom and joy. Maybe our Time is not that far from the Roaring Twenties, with their glamour and their long term fascination.
The show took place in a dining room with leather chairs and finest tables, clothes are a gorgeous mix between male and female imagination, while fabrics are sensual.
A daydream that left us speechless: we still feel the smell of flowers and smog from Mr Gatsby's New York.
Maybe what really strikes us about this show is its approach to the fashion of the future. Street style is really powerful today, we all know that, and products really hitting the market are dad sneakers and gym trousers. Ralph Lauren, following a general huge come back to the sartorial and the "well done" fashion, put beauty on the scene, with gorgeous fabrics, valuable pieces and shiny jewels and accessories.
There's a real revival of Fashion as we used to know it, and it's going to be bigger and bigger in the following seasons. We're glad of it, because against the big trivialization we're going through this is exactly what we need.
