Thanks for posting!

 

I don't really follow designers, but he is one I seek out and purchase often. 

Love his styles, fabrics, tailoring.

 

Congratulations Mr. Lauren !!!

I don't know why I thought Ralph Lauren was taller.  

There are many elements: wind, fire, water
But none quite like the element of surprise
