The beloved American fashion designer staged his 2025 spring shows at Khalily Stables in Bridgehampton, while also showcasing his personal vintage car collection
Ralph Lauren could’ve gone just about anywhere to present his spring 2025 collection during New York Fashion Week, but the fashion designer opted for an enclave he knows well—the Hamptons.
Last week, Khalily Stables, a sprawling equestrian compound in Bridgehampton, served as the catwalk for Lauren’s latest designs, and now the 7.68-hectare farm has been hoisted onto the market for a cool US$15.25 million. Formerly known as Campbell Stables, the palatial property at 6 West Pond Drive was originally listed in 2017 for a whopping US$40 million, nearly three times the amount of the current asking price. It was later snapped up in 2021 at a steeply discounted US$14 million, The New York Post reported.
Behind its entrance gates and tree-lined drive, the stately spread encompasses two barns with a total of 27 horse stalls, 15 grass paddocks, two riding arenas, a pair of grand-prix grass riding fields, and one large indoor arena with a viewing area. The main barn features 18 stalls, while the smaller holds the other nine. Also included is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment with a fully equipped chef’s kitchen, in addition to a two-bedroom, one-bath home and on-site office for staff.
“I’m proud to have helped bring together an iconic brand with a world-class equestrian stable for such an extraordinary event in the Hamptons,” Corcoran broker Rolanda Blue Doolan told The Post.
The Ralph Lauren show, which kicked off New York Fashion Week early September, was a star-studded affair attended by some 250 celebrity guests. Everyone from Big Little Lies star Laura Dern to Naomi Watts, Usher, Jude Law, Coleman Domingo, and Anna Wintour was there while supermodels including Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington-Burns rocked the runway clad in Lauren’s classic and quintessentially American designs.
The grounds, however, played a bigger role than just a backdrop for the presentation—which showcased looks from the Ralph Lauren Collection, Purple Label, and Polo Ralph Lauren. The verdant fields of Khalily Stables also set the stage for Lauren’s personal vintage car collection and even hosted an immersive pop-up satellite of the famous Polo Bar in Midtown Manhattan for the after-party. (Yes, Lauren, who owns a home in Montauk, went as far as to recreate the restaurant and even brought along the eatery’s maître d’ Nelly Moudime to handle the A-list guests with kid gloves.)
While scenes like this aren’t par for the course, the high-profile fashion extravaganza—and its bucolic venue—will surely go down in history.
