Mona Lisa's cars
The article discusses Ralph Lauren's love for both fashion and cars, and how he finds inspiration for his fashion designs from the beauty of his car collection.
The famous designer Ralph Lauren, who finds inspiration for the elegance of his fashion collections in the beauty of the pieces of his car collection, calls the pavilion where he conserves them and from where he starts when he uses them, the Garage. And use them he does, personally, and very often.
Ralph Lauren rightly proud of the splendid exhibition at the Louvre in 2011 alongside the charming Bugatti Atlantic.
In 2011, however, Ralph Lauren decided to share a part of his collection with the world: 17 cars to be precise, displaying them at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs within the Palais du Louvre, in Paris. The exhibition had a title worthy of the place: “L'art de l'automobile: Chefs-d'oeuvre de la collection Ralph Lauren” (The Art of the Automobile: Masterpieces of the Ralph Lauren Collection).
