Ralph Lauren, the American fashion dream
His polo shirts, ties and jackets have made him the richest designer in the world. Read
Ralph Lauren, a renowned fashion designer, has maintained his relevance in the industry for decades by anticipating and setting trends. His eponymous company, with a market capitalization of over $20 billion, has made him one of the wealthiest designers, with a net worth of $15.5 billion. Born Ralph Lifshitz in 1939 in the Bronx, New York, to Jewish immigrant parents, he changed his name as a teenager and developed an interest in fashion at a young age.
Lauren's big break came when Bloomingdale's agreed to sell his designs, and he went on to launch his own label, Polo, which became a symbol of status and style. He stepped down as CEO in 2015 and now enjoys his life at his Colorado ranch, Double RL.
