Indigenous Weaver Naiomi Glasses Is Ralph Lauren’s First Artist in Residence
Southwestern-inspired patterns have been a staple of Ralph Lauren’s iconic designs for more than 56 years, born out of the designer’s fascination with Native American craftsmanship. On December 5, the homage is about to become way more authentic. In a deeply meaningful move towards collaboration, Ralph Lauren unveiled the first drop of a capsule collection made through its inaugural Artist in Residence program, starting with the renowned seventh-generation Diné weaver and textile artist Naiomi Glasses.
