The Ralph Lauren Pre-Fall 2019 collection is the stuff of style dreams. Rich brown hues, metallics, knits and plaids layer atop each other for outfits that are flat-out classy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Classy, yes. Budget-friendly, no. Four digits for a pair of pants isn’t anywhere near the realm of possibility for most (unless that’s the only item of clothing you’re buying this year). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But after drooling over these luxe pieces, I went on a mission to find Ralph Lauren for less<\/a>. Well, sort of. Read on for five affordable picks that channel the famous label<\/a> without duping the price tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n“Ralph Lauren for less” picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe drapey trouser<\/h3>\n\n\n\nBingham Wool Garbadine Pant, $1390, Ralph Lauren<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe beauty of this pant is in the drape. Thanks to the wool weave construction and pleats at the waist, it hangs over the body gently to create a very feminine silhouette. <\/p>\n\n\n\nOur budget alternative<\/h4>\n\n\n\nL’academie Midtown Pant, $128, Revolve<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nMade of rayon, the Midtown Pant\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> won’t have the same weight as the Lauren version, but they do mimic the soft drape. The pleats at the front combined with a fuller leg give this pant a hint of formality. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThe metallic tank<\/h3>\n\n\n\nAden Plaid Print Top, $1990, Ralph Lauren<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nTalk about a dressy tank! This top features an elegant faux scarf draped around the neckline. Even without the neck detail, this top is a standout thanks to the gorgeous metallic print. <\/p>\n\n\n\nOur budget alternative<\/h4>\n\n\n\nElegance Boutique Cowl Tank, $52, Shoptiques<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nHere, the cowl neck hints at the drapey neckline we love on the Ralph Lauren tank. And the champagne-toned gold Lam\u00e9 fabric is every bit as luxe as the printed pattern above. Wear this top with nice jeans and heels or a wide-legged black pant. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThe pleated skirt <\/h3>\n\n\n\nTrivelas Pleated Skirt, $2790, Ralph Lauren<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nHeading into the cooler months, keeping a glamorous pleated midi skirt on hand means you’re ready for last-minute party invites. Unfortunately, this one probably costs you its weight in gold. <\/p>\n\n\n\nOur budget alternative<\/h4>\n\n\n\nRoberto Collino Midi Skirt, $87, Yoox<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nOur pick is shorter and slightly darker in tone than the original \u2014 both points make it that much more wearable. Pair it with a sleek, fitted top in cream and black strappy heals for a perfect party outfit. <\/p>\n\n\n\nMoto jacket <\/h3>\n\n\n\nZinnia Lambskin Moto Jacket, $3290, Ralph Lauren<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe classic moto jacket gets even more versatile in this ultra modern iteration by Ralph Lauren. What makes it so striking is the lack of embellishments \u2014 the color, fabric and clean lines do all the work here.<\/p>\n\n\n\nOur budget alternative <\/h4>\n\n\n\nAndrew Marc Felicity Leather Jacket, $209, Orchard Mile<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThis moto will stay in your rotation for years to come. Throw it on over a sweater and trousers to work. Slip it on with a sundress when fall rolls around. Try it over a slinky dress on date night. And it’s always an option when you’re wearing jeans. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Ralph Lauren Pre-Fall 2019 collection is the stuff of style dreams.
