In New York, Ralph Lauren unveils for Fall 2026 an intimate women's collection, an ode to adventure, freedom and timeless elegance.

In an intimate New York setting, Ralph Lauren unveiled his Fall/Winter 2026 womenswear collection with quiet confidence. The show felt like opening a well-kept travel journal: thoughtful, refined and full of possibility.
The front row reflected the brand&rsquo;s cosmopolitan appeal, with guests including Anne Hathaway, Lana Del Rey, Ariana DeBose, Rebecca Hall and Lili Reinhart, among others. Each embodied the effortless sophistication that defines the house.
&ldquo;I love the adventurous spirit of fashion,&rdquo; said Ralph Lauren. For the season ahead, he imagines a woman led by quiet rebellion and steady self-belief. She dresses for herself. She values heritage and craftsmanship, yet she reshapes them to suit modern life. Her style feels timeless because it isn&rsquo;t chasing trends.
This season&rsquo;s Ralph Lauren woman lives comfortably in contrast. She is practical but romantic, modern yet touched by vintage charm. Tailored suits sit alongside corsetry and subtle chainmail details. Strong shoulders and defined waists create structure, often emphasised with bold belts. Silhouettes lengthen with relaxed ease, then shift into shorter hemlines for added energy.
Trousers come in many forms: sharply fitted, wide and pleated, or gently curved. The overall look feels purposeful but fluid, polished without being rigid.
The colour palette leans into deep earth shades, lifted by flashes of metallic and intricate embroidery. Donegal tweed softens into knitted cashmere that skims the body. A chunky sweater with oversized floral embroidery pairs with floral silk jacquard trousers, turning a familiar combination into something fresh and confident.

Outerwear plays a leading role. Double-breasted checked wool coats, sweeping leather pieces and casually worn jackets set the tone. A hand-patinated leather jacket highlights the craftsmanship behind the collection. Meanwhile, a leopard-print shearling jacket, shaped with volume at the back, adds a touch of drama.
More than fifty specially developed fabrics underline the attention to detail. Tweeds, velvets, jacquards, mesh inspired by chainmail, scarf prints, leather and shearling are layered to create depth. A reversible cropped jacket offers wool on one side and a crackled metallic finish on the other. A jacquard velvet piece with a feather motif is styled with stretch flannel. A thistle-coloured silk velvet dress, hand-beaded and softly smocked, is offset by an oversized herringbone jacket.
For evening, the mood deepens. A high-neck sheath dress covered in micro-sequins and velvet detailing captures the light with striking intensity. A backless velvet gown, dyed in shades of brown and midnight blue, glows as it moves. Hand-painted finishes, leather appliqu&eacute;, glass bead fringe and detailed embroidery elevate these pieces into something close to couture.
Accessories continue the rebellious thread. Riding boots and embroidered velvet slippers ground the looks. The Ralph bag appears in several forms, from the practical Tote to a new Mini Crossbody. The Deco Lock clutch, finished with a jewellery-like chain handle, mirrors the metallic accents seen throughout the collection.
In this Fall 2026 collection, Ralph Lauren celebrates a woman who honours tradition but refuses to be confined by it. She explores. She experiments. She moves forward with confidence. Elegant, self-assured and unapologetically free, she defines her own timeless style.
