Ralph Lauren Chief Patrice Louvet Honoured at New York Gala
The French American Chamber of Commerce Foundation has honoured Patrice Louvet, chief executive of Ralph Lauren Corporation, at its annual gala in New York. WWD reported the honour on 3 November 2026.
The French American Chamber of Commerce is a business network that connects companies in France and the United States. Its foundation's annual gala supports students in the Serge Bellanger French-American Business Scholarship Program, which is named after the late business leader and gives young people money to study.
The scholarship programme is named after Serge Bellanger, and the gala supports students in it.
Louvet leads Ralph Lauren Corporation, the American fashion group behind the Polo Ralph Lauren label. He has been its head since 2017, when he was appointed to lead the New York-based group, according to Les Echos. He is also described by the company as its president and chief executive.
The company has been busy this autumn. On 30 September 2026 it debuted Polofest, an event it describes as a first-of-its-kind celebration of polo culture. On 8 September it announced plans to set up its first cancer centre in Asia with the National Cancer Center of Korea.
The next date on the calendar is financial. Ralph Lauren has said its results for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, its financial year running to 2027, will be released on Thursday, 5 November 2026. Those figures will show how sales and profit moved over the period.
