When we dive into Ralph Lauren’s world, we are immediatly attracted into his extraordinary car collection, considered one of the most prestigious in the world. The renowned American fashion designer selected thoroughly each unique retro automobile that figure in his 60-car collection full of beautiful cars from the 1930’s to today that have made their mark in history on the road and on tracks.
When we are confronted with these incredible objects of art, it is hard to take our eyes from the retro Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic, which is worth an estimated $40 million alone.
And if Bugatti already has driven your attention, take a look at the other top-line brands that complete this collection: Ferrari, Bentley, Alfa Romeo, Jaguar… it’s undeniably a catwalk of stars.
Other highlights include a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Grand Prix, a 1938 Alfa Romeo Mille Miglia roadster, the world’s only 1930 Mercedes-Benz SSK “Count Trossi” roadster, a 1957 Jaguar XKSS, a McLaren F1, a 1929 “Blower” Bentley, a Ferrari 250 GT, and the only Lamborghini Reventon Roadster in the U.S.
What you may not know is that many of them have been painted in different shades to their original colours according to Lauren’s taste.
Last year, Le Musée des Arts Déco in Paris had the chance to present 17 of these beauties. We hope anxiously for the next exhibition.
