Gaining towering popularity after dressing Meghan Markle for her 2017 engagement photos, Ralph & Russo is officially headed for the win. The London-based couture house recently received fiftymillion dollars from La Perla Fashion Investment B.V. Taking such a minority stake in the brand, La Perla will be helping to boost Ralph & Russo’s global growth plans and allow it to remain a privately owned and managed company, according to the chief executive Michael Russo who founded the brand with creative director Tamara Ralph in 2010.

Now that the brand hasmade fans of big fashion icons like Rihanna, Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez and Gwyneth Paltrow, Ralph & Russo is getting ready to capture and relate to a younger audience. We specifically love the modernity of their newest autumn/winter2019 couture collection because while it has a youthful spirit, it maintains Ralph & Russo signature of elegance and refinement.

After the AW19 show, Ralph told Vogue,“In the past two seasons we’ve seen a huge growth from 18-25-year-olds. They’re actually buying pieces as separates, putting a skirt with a T-shirt and wearing it with sneakers. It shows the evolution of [couture].”
