About this person

Born Ralph Lifshitz on October 14, 1939, he founded the brand that carries his name and turned it into a global multibillion-dollar enterprise. The company grew from neckties to a full vision of polished, old-money ease, selling not just clothes but an entire aesthetic of belonging. He stepped down as CEO in September 2015 but stayed on as executive chairman and chief creative officer, keeping a hand on the wheel. As of May 2025, his net worth sits at $11.9 billion. The boy from the Bronx became the man who defined what American style could look like to the rest of the world.
