Historical Context
Founded in 1967, Ralph Lauren became one of the defining names in American fashion by building a complete lifestyle brand rooted in classic tailoring, equestrian influences, and timeless design. During the 1990s, the company expanded its accessories collections while continuing to establish itself as a global luxury house.

Throughout the decade, Ralph Lauren eyewear was produced in Italy under license, combining the brand's distinctly American design philosophy with Italian eyewear manufacturing.
