AMERICANA

Spring 2024 Senior Capstone Collection

Ralph Lauren x The Kentucky Derby

An all-American designer and an all-American event joining forces to reach a new generation.

Each aspect of this collection is intentional to keep traditions alive while remaining true to Ralph Lauren’s refined style. As a nod to Churchill Downs, each look is named after a previous winning racehorse. Playful details and accessories, such as handcrafted roses and fascinators, keep this collection in alignment with traditional derby attire, while Ralph Lauren’s distinguished tailoring adds a flare of luxurious fashion.

Americana stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of tradition in an ever-evolving world. By bringing together the timeless elegance of an All-American designer with the storied history of an iconic event, we bridge the gap between past and present, offering a fresh perspective to a new generation. With Ralph Lauren's collection for the Kentucky Derby, we invite you to embrace the beauty of tradition and celebrate the legacy of American style.
