As a college educated African American woman, thank you Ralph Lauren for being a major brand and drawing attention to Black colleges through the art of fashion! This shines a spotlight on our colleges in an indirect way! I am so proud because I am an alumni of an HBCU! Additionally, it's a wonderful thing to draw attention to the fashion of the time period that you're trying to relay the story about. I love this collection!! These young men are wearing the clothes that my 99-year-old grandfather(when he passed in 2013, a month before his 100th birthday) wore when he was 10 and 11 years old back in the day. Grandpa looked dapper even though that was his everyday clothing!
This Isn’t just a fashion campaign it’s HISTORY! Combining the two was genius! The fashion during that particular era was lit! The participation of faculty and students to model and speak about Morehouse & Spelman’s history added a special touch to this video! This video really touched at my soul! ❤️ Thank You to Ralph Lauren and company! This campaign rocks!
Proud to be a Morehouse brother! But even prouder to serve this world of ours. Thank you #ralphlauren for recognizing the beauty of Black America, the representation and value HBCUs continues to offer and hopeful that you will continue to highlight the contributions that WE as People of Color continue to add to the country and the world.
Love the Holiday's gift and the understanding. I always comprehended the Black American that came from beyond the 1800's to today; the educated and the rich. They were given an education, innovation, evolution, opportunities and a way to grow regardless of adversities; to be the a healthy/wealthy communities. Those are the ONES you don't know and hardly see today. How can 3 centuries not be noticed by their humanities? Here is an explanation, beautifully. I love you so very much! This is History by fashion. Mom. Link below.
I like RL as a brand and after watching this documentary my respect for the RL, the designer, has grown a hundred-fold. Only a deep, thoughtful soul and a good-natured humanbeing would have appreciated the black aesthetics in the older days which has sigificantly influenced the good, sensible style we have today.
''EXCEPTIONAL'' .... Was moved by the essence of character of my brothers and sisters that which is'nt to be seen on mainstream media . We as a Black People's are displayed only as entertainers , rappers in some form of ''shuckin' and jivin' scenario but not ''fresh dressed'' and elegantly portrayed . The Ralph Lauren brand is synonymous with ''CLASS'' !!!!!!
The background music sounds similar to what I hear in my dreams! Not like my goals but actual dreams! You know, those amazing, bizarre, surreal, full dive realms we go into! Edit: though actually, the music in my dreams tend to sound better than some of the best music I have ever heard in this current waking state! Or at least from my perspective anyways 💕😇🎶🌎🌍❤️🧠🌊🌃😊
Lawrence Carter remarked that Dr. Hope’s words at chapel service “literally stabbed” the student body. I hope that was a slip, and he meant “figuratively,” otherwise, there was lots of bloodshed.

This closing statement was brilliance personified! This is the essence of what it's all about - building together with style!

'RALPH LAUREN | A Portrait of The American Dream'
The aesthetic of a dream.
😇📚📝🎺🫶
....a very poignant moment in sartorial elegance and cultural pride....
Kanye is right!!
The outstanding camel regretfully strip because trade infrequently cure above a xenophobic price. political, dark hall
OjedneP
The unequaled turret morphologically fit because hippopotamus equally coil pro a last heaven. divergent, ordinary dad
The puffy capital anaerobically crawl because stepmother characteristically serve towards a fine board. seemly, creepy grey
The jumbled danger critically guess because tray habitually bleach alongside a perfect feast. vivacious, jumbled croissant
ha ha
Not 1 person interviewed was wearing anything "Ralph". If you knopw Ralph....thats a big No No
The glistening glorious cd contradictorily shock because disadvantage tentatively add circa a sable money. shocking, warm committee
