David Beckham believes Ralph Lauren is 'incredible'

OHMYGOSSIP — David Beckham believes Ralph Lauren is an “incredible” designer.
The 41-year-old former England football captain presented the 77-year-old creative mastermind with the Outstanding Achievement in Fashion award at The Fashion Awards 2016, which took place at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Monday (05.12.16), and the sporting icon has credited Ralph for his successful career and for being “an amazing person and a dedicated family man”.
David – who has children Brooklyn, 17, Romeo, 14, Cruz, 11 and five-year-old daughter Harper with his wife Victoria Beckham – shared a black and white picture of him with the entrepreneur from the star studded bash to his Instagram account on Tuesday (06.12.16).
And the light-haired hunk captioned the post: “Special night presenting the Iconic Ralph Lauren with the British Fashion Council’s Outstanding Achievement Award. What he has achieved is incredible, more importantly he’s an amazing person and a dedicated family man (sic).”
And Ralph – who launched his debut clothing line Polo in 1968 – has previously been praised as an “exemplary designer and businessman” by the chairman of the British Fashion Council (BFC), Dame Natalie Massenet because he has built an “outstanding legacy”.
Speaking prior to last night’s event, Natalie said: “Ralph Lauren is an exemplary designer and businessman.
“He has helped to define an era in both American and global fashion with his singular vision; I know that most of us would say he has inspired us immeasurably.
“He has built an outstanding legacy and I look forward to celebrating him for years to come.”
Meanwhile, Ralph – who has since gone on to expand his brand and launch a womenswear range – believes the traditional fashion calendar is “over” and thinks it is important the fashion world adapts to changing technology.
Speaking previously, he said: “Showing clothes, then delivering them six months later… it’s over.
“With the Internet, social media… you have to change.
“I’ve always looked at the business as an evolution. We’re never standing still, and we’re never chasing anyone. Everything is a new chapter.
“I’ve been through it before, when nothing moves. When everything is available, how do you do specialness? How do you create magic?”
