For Fall/Winter 2026, Ralph Lauren put Polo Ralph Lauren and Purple Label on the same runway, showing how one man can switch moods, roles, and uniforms without losing his identity.

The decision was less about merging the two lines and more about showing how one man can move between different moods, roles and uniforms without losing his sense of self.
Choosing Milan felt deliberate. This was not simply a change of location, but a statement. The collection unfolded as a broader conversation about modern masculinity, presented as a group portrait rather than a single, fixed idea of what the &ldquo;Ralph Lauren man&rdquo; should be.
At the heart of the show was the contrast that has always defined the brand. Polo Ralph Lauren and Purple Label appeared side by side as distinct worlds. Polo felt younger and more restless, while Purple Label was precise, polished and assured. Together, they suggested a man who can shift easily between identities: urban explorer one moment, refined gentleman the next, without it ever feeling forced or theatrical.

Polo Ralph Lauren leaned into workwear, folk influences and outdoor references. The styling felt relaxed and lived-in, with layered looks, softened silhouettes and rich textures doing much of the work. Purple Label offered a quieter confidence in response. Sharp tailoring, double-faced cashmere, disciplined flannels and military-inspired coats brought structure and authority back into focus.
The front row reflected the scale of the moment. Guests included Liam Hemsworth, Noah Schnapp, Colman Domingo, NCT&rsquo;s Mark Lee, Mattia Stanga, Tom Hiddleston and Henry Golding, reinforcing the show&rsquo;s status as a standout event on the Milan schedule.

Ultimately, the Fall/Winter 2026 collection was not about choosing one look over another. Ralph Lauren made a clear case for range and adaptability, proving that modern menswear can be varied, layered and still feel entirely confident.
