What is the name of Ralph Lauren's high-end women's wear line?

Ralph Lauren’s high-end women’s wear line is called Ralph Lauren Collection.

The line represents the luxury, fashion-forward side of the Ralph Lauren portfolio, offering tailored clothing, eveningwear and accessories rather than the brand’s more accessible sportswear labels. It is positioned as the women’s counterpart to the company’s highest-end design offerings, while Purple Label is most strongly associated with men’s luxury tailoring and sportswear.

Ralph Lauren entered women’s clothing in 1971 with tailored shirts, including the first appearance of the famous polo-player emblem on a women’s garment. The first full women’s collection followed in 1972, establishing a major new part of the business. Over time, the women’s portfolio expanded to include Collection, Polo, Lauren Ralph Lauren, Double RL and specialized sports lines.

A common mix-up is choosing Black Label, which was also a more upscale Ralph Lauren line. Black Label existed for both men and women but was later integrated into Purple Label for men and Collection for women. Denim & Supply was a more casual denim-oriented label, not the high-end women’s line.
