The first half of Ralph Lauren’s show was compelling; so perfectly realised in its haze of cappuccino-coloured cashmere and fur, with tribal details and a Brave Heart feeling about these noble women. But if big bear country was one half of this show on the last day of the New York Fall/Winter 2015 season, the second part was about being bare.
The colours switched from soft moss green to hard black for slim dresses with naked backs and thin halter straps. They brought the mood right back to a cocktail party on the Upper East Side.
“It’s all about freedom – there is the sexy bare girl and the one who wants to be to be a bit Bohemian,” Ralph explained backstage, after extracting himself from his extended family and from Kanye West, who pronounced the show “perfection”.
What could be more enticing than soft turtleneck sweaters, which the programme described as “heathered truffle cashmere”? The tactile materials in every shade of beige and moss were complemented with lush fur or even feathers in those fawn and taupe autumnal country colours.
