Over the past few days, I returned to my hometown of Paris as the city prepared — with the world watching — to open the #Paris2024 Olympic Games. It was a privilege to have a front-row seat as the City of Paris, the International Olympic Committee, Team USA, and our very own Ralph Lauren teams prepared for weeks of events, celebrations, visitors, and viewers. At the center of it all, of course, are the incredible athletes — each with a dream and a tireless commitment to making that dream a reality. At the Team USA Welcome Experience, where nearly 600 competing athletes received their #RLxTeamUSA Opening and Closing Ceremony uniforms from our teams, I heard many of their stories, which were nothing short of inspiring — reflecting a spirit of aspiration and optimism that are also core to our Purpose and values at Ralph Lauren. I want to thank our teams all over the world who delivered Team USA’s iconic uniforms and are also creating welcoming and memorable events, experiences and content for our consumers worldwide throughout the Games. #LifeAtRL #RalphLauren #TeamUSA
Was thinking of you and your team while watching the opening ceremonies! What an amazing experience that must have been.
Proud of you!
Patrice, I have a proposition for your consideration. I would love some of that RL Olympic swag, especially one of those cool blazers ( white or blue, 44 long). Lets do some old fashion horse trading. I am an excellent executive coach and a developer of talent. I will provide RL with three one hour sessions in exchange for a blazer and some Olympic swag. What do you think? Cheers, Marc
Watching the opening ceremony, the uniforms certainly stood out as one of the most elegant with its iconic sophisticated class. Congratulations to both the Ralph Lauren and USA teams, already bringing home some gold medals 🥇. Gymnastics has always been my favourite discipline and was thrilled to see Simone Biles' amazing come back! Enjoy the rest of the games!
Fabulous iconic uniforms befitting the beauty, grace and guts of our athletes! Thank you for presenting them in such perfect and professional fashion. Go team Ralph Lauren and go team USA!
Can't choose between the white or blue blazer!!! Grosgrain 4ever! What a herculean effort for the entire RL team, suppliers and bravo for detailing the American companies who made the goods!!
Patrice. What a blessing for you to have this experience with so much intersecting. And so great to have seen from the sidelines all you’ve done at RL.
Returning to your hometown of Paris during the preparations for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games must have been a truly enriching experience, Patrice Louvet.
