/
The Polo Ralph Lauren 2021 Holiday Campaign reminds me that some of the best things in life are free — but not easy to assemble in one place. It’s damn difficult — sort of like telling the true story of America.
Ralph Lauren is on our Side: Don’t Blow it Ralph!
The top line takeaway — in case you are blind — is the concept of one global family with different but also shared values. Polo Ralph Lauren is for global citizens and the walls that we are trying to break through with all our might. That is one hell of a credential to be holding in your brand deck, so don’t screw it up, Ralph Lauren.
It may be a losing battle, frankly — crashing through these walls with all our might — but Polo Ralph Lauren is on our side — and not for the first time. We’ve been writing about Ralph Lauren’s best efforts for several years now.
AOC has criticized the Ralph Lauren brand a decade ago, but their pitch is near-perfect now.

Steven Meisel on photography, Fabien Baron on art direction and Karl Templer as stylist are in the house for the new Zara Studio [IG] campaign — a creative effort that sings like an opera star. It’s not often that we just look at images and in 5 seconds know the photographer behind them.
Add 10 models who aren’t wooden mannequins, and Zara Studio has — not a remarkable campaign in a fashion history sense — but a unique, superbly-executed campaign that knocks on the doors of women’s psyches with joy, inner convictions and backbone. it makes AOC want a campaign or fashion story with women all around the world roaring in unison.
We love it, and AOC tends to reject campaigns and fashion stories that are formulaic. So Zara, Meisel, Baron and Templer took 10 unique faces: Amar Akway, Chiharu Okunugi, Kirsten Owen, Marisa Berenson, Meadow Walker, Precious Lee, Raquel Zimmermann, Rianne van Rompaey, Sasha Pivovarova and Yumi Nu and mixed a grade AAAAA studio campaign. That IS NOT an easy feat. ~ Anne

Amazon is now the largest apparel retailer in America, and they believe that revenue can be grown exponentially because many women still want to try on clothes. The WSJ article discussion around the openings of large Amazon stores doesn’t note this possibility, but with Amazon’s existing same-day delivery structure for Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods, the possibility of offering larger sizes that are delivered for PRIME customers seems like a real opportunity. We suspect that many non-PRIME members would also be delighted {even grateful] to try on a wider range of clothes and have them delivered in a day or two.
