Series: Who Was?

The polo player with the raised mallet--everyone knows the Ralph Lauren logo. Learn the amazing story of the man who is a true American fashion icon.

Born in the Bronx, even as a teenager Ralph Lauren was known for his distinctive fashion sense, having a taste for both classic preppy clothes and vintage looks like beat-up leather jackets. He got his start in the fashion business by selling ties that he designed. From ties he went on to create a global fashion empire.

In this easy-to-read biography, best-selling author and Who Was? creator Jane O'Connor explains exactly how a fashion line is created--from first drawings to models strutting on the runway.
