The fashion industry is grappling with turmoil following Donald Trump's implementation of tariffs, significantly affecting its supply chains and consumer confidence. Despite the fears of a trade war, Ralph Lauren showcased his autumn/winter 2025 collection in New York City, a move designed to redirect attention from economic instability. The brand's commitment to resilience is evident, even as Asian manufacturing hubs like China and Vietnam face steep tariffs. The unpredictable landscape has left the fashion sector wary about its future amidst ongoing trade negotiations.
But on Thursday afternoon in New York City, it was a case of the show must (literally) go on for Ralph Lauren.
Ralph Lauren unveiled his autumn/winter 2025 collection with a catwalk show staged in the historic Clock Tower building, a gilded wonder just a short hop away from Wall Street.
What better way to quell the chatter around fluctuating stocks and waning consumer confidence than with a star-studded front row and clothes such as glamorous evening gowns.
The fashion sector has been left particularly wounded from Trump's decision to impose duties on finished products.
