Ralph Lauren: 50 years
Description
The landmark volume celebrating the life and work of Ralph Lauren—the vision of the brand as told and presented by Lauren himself—in a smaller, more portable edition, with additional photographs updated to the present. I n this visually stunning book, Lauren speaks candidly about himself and his art. In part one, we get to know the designer through never-before-seen pictures of him in private life and with his family, living the lives he designs for. In the second part, Lauren displays and writes about his most iconic and most beloved work, handpicked from hundreds of collections and his signature cinematic advertising campaigns. Lauren’s aesthetic influence and unique design sensibility are captured here by fashion’s finest photographers, including Bruce Weber, Deborah Turbeville, and Patrick Demarchelier. Now expanded with new photography, this unique fashion monograph is a personal expression of the artist and a rare peek into the mind of one of America’s most accomplished fashion designers.

Enter the world according to Mr Lauren.
Unlike the Tom Ford book this heavily picture orientated production has many years and Ralph Lauren styles to call upon. His extraordinary ability to take the past and it's references and re-invent them with his team is terrific. Like Tom Ford this is as much about styling as design but in the case of Ralph Lauren it is an extraordinary achievement over many years. Orientalism, Navajo, British County, Beaton Romantic, Preppy, Sporty, Old School, Hollywood Golden Age, how many stories has he successfully interpreted through clothing, photography and interiors? This book is a joy to refresh the memory of the range of styles the Ralph Lauren team have offered over the years and always in the most impeccable quality.Those unconvinced by the style and manner of the house will remain so, but to have created this legendary brand, label and house is a great achievement. This book beautifully captures and encapsulates it.

Buy it.You will love it!
A real must have for any person who has an interest in Ralph Lauren.As I have been wearing his clothes and I have home items as well,I found the book to be a real trip down memory lane to when I started with a Ralph Lauren Polo shirt back in 1983.

Estupendas las fotos y edición del libro
Tiene una parte dedicada a su biografía con fotos familiares y el resto a sus campañas publicitarias (moda atemporal)El libro posterior "A way of living" hace referencia también a su vida familiar pero está enfocado a la decoración. Una preciosidad ambos libros, me han encantado, reflejan un modo de vida.

Great book. Poor packing by Amazon
***** Five stars for the book. If you like Ralph-Lauren's style then this book will help you become acquainted with the thinking and -to an extend- the psyche of the man, and help you get to know how he came about developing his style and his designs. Short, easy to follow writing and great photos, make this book a great reference.** Two stars for Amazon. This is a heavy, luxurious book and to have it packed loosely in a flimsy carton packet shows a lack of respect both for the product as well as for the customer. Blister packing (at least!) should be standard when shipping heavy, hard-cover books.
