Overview

• Staged at the brand’s 650 Madison Avenue headquarters on the eve of the official schedule, the presentation featured white walls, deep couches and a minimalist set to keep focus on the clothes.
• The collection centered on a bold black‑white‑red palette reflecting a theme of women’s strength and sensuality, with sharp tailoring, airy dresses, oversized sun hats and graphic stripes.
• Craft and material play were emphasized, including upcycling details like overalls and a slipdress patchworked from eight white remnant fabrics, plus stretch‑leather bustiers and feather‑light linens.
• A‑list guests including Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Usher, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Nick Jonas, Jessica Chastain, Laura Dern, Naomi Watts and Anna Wintour attended as the 85‑year‑old designer took a bow to a standing ovation alongside his wife, Ricky.
• The show doubled as a statement of momentum, coinciding with Lauren’s CFDA womenswear nomination and following reported fiscal gains earlier this year.
