Ralph Lauren Releases Collection Inspired by Friends' Rachel Green
As every Friends fan knows, one of the best parts of the '90s sitcom was Rachel Green's wardrobe. From her wedding dress introduction in the pilot episode to her streamlined, high-fashion wardrobe in the final seasons, the Central Perk waitress-turned-Ralph Lauren employee helped define some of the decade's top trends (and hairstyles). And now, 25 years after the show's debut, Ralph Lauren is releasing a collection inspired by her iconic style.
For a span of several seasons, Jennifer Aniston's character famously worked as a publicist at Ralph Lauren. The American designer even made a cameo in Season 6, appearing in a scene while riding next to Rachel [Aniston] on an elevator. To pay homage to the brand's role in the series, Ralph Lauren partnered with Warner Bros. Consumer Products on a "wear-to-work collection" inspired by Rachel's character.
Perfectly embodying the style of Rachel Green, the collection includes a range of ribbed turtlenecks, a plaid miniskirt, leather separates, classic white shirting, and leather knee-high boots. There are also pops of leopard and purple shearling, paying tribute to some of the character's more playful fashion moments along the years.
The collection, which ranges from $69 to $2,998, includes pieces from both the Polo and Lauren Ralph Lauren brands. It's available to shop now online at ralphlauren.com, but will also fittingly be sold at Bloomingdale's (another company Rachel Green worked for on Friends). On September 21 and 22, Bloomingdale's 59th Street flagship store will have a replica of the show's Central Perk coffee shop on-site, where customers can shop the collection and sip a cup of complimentary coffee.
