provided within this "Summary" section are as of March 28, 2020, unless otherwise noted.
The Company
Founded in 1967 by Mr. Ralph Lauren, we are a global leader in the design, marketing, and distribution of premium lifestyle products, including
apparel, footwear, accessories, home furnishings, fragrances, and hospitality. Our long-standing reputation and distinctive image have been developed
across an expanding number of products, brands, sales channels, and international markets. We believe that our global reach, breadth of product
offerings, and multi-channel distribution are unique among luxury and apparel companies.
We diversify our business by geography (North America, Europe, and Asia, among other regions) and channel of distribution (retail, wholesale,
and licensing). This allows us to maintain a dynamic balance as our operating results do not depend solely on the performance of any single
geographic area or channel of distribution. We sell directly to consumers through our integrated retail channel, which includes our retail stores,
concession-based shop-within-shops, and digital commerce operations around the world. Our wholesale sales are made principally to major
department stores, specialty stores, and third-party digital partners around the world, as well as to certain third-party-owned stores to which we have
licensed the right to operate in defined geographic territories using our trademarks. In addition, we license to third parties for specified periods the
right to access our various trademarks in connection with the licensees' manufacture and sale of designated products, such as certain apparel,
eyewear, fragrances, and home furnishings.
We organize our business into the following three reportable segments: North America, Europe, and Asia. In addition to these reportable
segments, we also have other non-reportable segments.
Our global reach is extensive, as we sell directly to customers throughout the world via our 530 retail stores and 654 concession-based shop-
within-shops, as well as through our own digital commerce sites and those of various third-party digital partners. Merchandise is also available
through our wholesale distribution channels at over 11,000 doors worldwide, the majority in specialty stores, as well as through the digital commerce
sites of many of our wholesale customers. In addition to our directly-operated stores and shops, our international licensing partners operate 80 Ralph
Lauren stores, 31 Ralph Lauren concession shops, and 139 Club Monaco stores and shops.
Over the past five fiscal years, we have invested approximately $1.331 billion for capital improvements, primarily funded through strong
operating cash flow. We have continued to return value to our shareholders through our common stock share repurchases and payment of quarterly
cash dividends. Over the past five fiscal years, the cost of shares of Class A common stock repurchased pursuant to our common stock repurchase
program was approximately $1.800 billion and dividends paid amounted to approximately $892 million.

structurally subordinated to our borrowings under our Global Credit Facility to the extent
that those borrowings are guaranteed by those subsidiaries and any other subsidiaries of ours
that in the future may be required to guarantee borrowings under our Global Credit Facility.
As of March 28, 2020, we had no secured indebtedness and our subsidiaries had liabilities of
approximately $2.108 billion, in addition to the guarantees of the Global Credit Facility.

we will be required to make an offer to repurchase the notes at a price equal to 101% of their

Certain Covenants

covenants.

S-8
Table of Contents
Further Issuances
We may, without consent of the holders of the notes, create and issue additional notes of the
same series as the notes of a series offered hereby ranking equally with the notes of such
series in all respects (other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price and amount
of interest payable on the first payment date applicable thereto). These additional notes will
be consolidated and form a single series with such notes.

Use of Proceeds
We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for general corporate purposes, which may
include the repayment of $475 million outstanding under our Global Credit Facility and the
repayment of all $300 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of our existing 2.625%
Senior Notes due August 18, 2020 (the "2020 Notes").

Conflicts of Interest
As a result of our intended use of the net proceeds from this offering, which may include the
repayment of $475 million outstanding under our Global Credit Facility and the repayment of
all of our outstanding 2020 Notes, certain of the underwriters and/or their respective affiliates
may receive more than 5% of the net proceeds of this offering, not including underwriting
compensation, thus creating a conflict of interest within the meaning of Rule 5121 (Public
Offerings of Securities with Conflicts of Interest) of the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc. ("FINRA Rule 5121"). Accordingly, this offering is being made in
compliance with the requirements of FINRA Rule 5121. The appointment of a "qualified
independent underwriter" is not necessary in connection with this offering as the notes are
investment grade rated securities. See "Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest) -- Conflicts of
Interest."

Absence of Public Market for the Notes
The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend
to apply for the notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for the notes to be
quoted on any automated quotation system. The underwriters have advised us that they
intend to make a market in the notes, but they are not obligated to do so, and any market
making in the notes may be discontinued at any time in their sole discretion. Accordingly,

RISK FACTORS
Investing in the notes offered hereby involves risks. Prior to deciding to purchase any notes, prospective investors should consider carefully all of the
information set forth in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein. In particular, you
should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below related to the issuance of the notes and the risk factors that are incorporated by reference herein
from the section entitled "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the 2020 Form 10-K where we identify other factors that could affect our business. See "Incorporation
by Reference" in this prospectus supplement and "Where You Can Find More Information" in the accompanying prospectus. Some factors in the "Risk
Factors" section of the 2020 Form 10-K are "forward-looking statements." For a discussion of those statements and of other factors for investors to
consider, see "Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements" in this prospectus supplement, "Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information" in
the accompanying prospectus and "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in the 2020 Form 10-K.
Risks related to the notes
Restrictive covenants in the documents governing our indebtedness may limit our ability to undertake certain types of transactions.
We have a credit facility that provides for a $500 million senior unsecured revolving line of credit through August 12, 2024, which is also used to
support the issuance of letters of credit and the maintenance of our commercial paper borrowing program that allows us to issue up to $500 million of
unsecured commercial paper notes through private placements using third-party broker-dealers (the "Global Credit Facility"). As a result of various
restrictive covenants in our credit agreement governing our Global Credit Facility, our financial flexibility is limited in a number of ways. The Global
Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur additional debt, incur
liens, sell or dispose of assets, merge with or acquire other companies, liquidate or dissolve, engage in businesses that are not in a related line of business,
make loans, advances, or guarantees, engage in transactions with affiliates, and make investments and limits the amount of dividends and distributions on,
or purchases, redemptions, retirements or acquisitions of, the Company's stock that we can make. Additionally, if an event of default occurred under the
Global Credit Facility, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding thereunder, together with accrued interest to be immediately due and
payable. In such an event, we cannot assure you that we would have sufficient assets to pay the amount due on the notes. As a result, you may receive less
than the full amount you would otherwise be entitled to receive on the notes. See, "Description of Other Indebtedness -- Global Credit Facility."
The notes will be effectively subordinated to any of our debt that is secured.
The notes will be unsecured, unguaranteed obligations of Ralph Lauren Corporation and will be effectively subordinated to any secured debt
obligations that we may incur in the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing that debt. The effect of this subordination is that if we are
involved in a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding, or upon a default in payment on, or the acceleration of, any of our
secured debt, if any, our assets that secure debt will be available to pay obligations on the notes only after all debt under our secured debt, if any, has been
paid in full from those assets. Holders of the notes will participate in any remaining assets ratably with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated
creditors, including trade creditors. We may not have sufficient assets remaining to pay amounts due on any or all of the notes then outstanding. See
"Description of the Notes."
The notes are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness, guarantees and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.
The notes are our obligations exclusively and not of any of our subsidiaries and will be effectively subordinated to the liabilities, including
indebtedness, guarantees and trade payables, of our subsidiaries. In particular, all of our domestic significant subsidiaries are currently required to guarantee
borrowings under our Global Credit Facility and the notes will also be effectively subordinated to our borrowings under our Global

Credit Facility to the extent that those borrowings are guaranteed by those subsidiaries and any other subsidiaries of ours that in the future may be required
to guarantee borrowings under our Global Credit Facility. The incurrence of other indebtedness or other liabilities by any of our subsidiaries is not
prohibited in connection with the notes and could adversely affect our ability to pay our obligations on the notes. A significant portion of our operations is
conducted through our subsidiaries and our cash flow and consequent ability to service our debt, including the notes, depends in part on our subsidiaries.
Our subsidiaries are separate legal entities that have no obligation to pay any amounts due under the notes or to make any funds available therefor, whether
by dividends, loans or other payments. Except to the extent we are a creditor with recognized claims against our subsidiaries, all claims of creditors,
including trade creditors, and holders of preferred stock, if any, of our subsidiaries will have priority with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries over our
claims (and therefore the claims of our creditors, including holders of the notes). Consequently, the notes will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities,
including indebtedness, guarantees and trade payables, of any of our subsidiaries and any subsidiaries that we may in the future acquire or establish. As of
March 28, 2020, our subsidiaries had approximately $2.108 billion of outstanding liabilities, in addition to the guarantees of the Global Credit Facility.
We are permitted to incur more debt, which may increase our risk associated with our leverage.
Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries are restricted from incurring additional unsecured debt or other liabilities, including additional unsecured
senior debt, under the indenture governing the notes. If we incur additional debt or liabilities, our ability to pay our obligations on the notes could be
adversely affected. We expect that we will from time to time incur additional debt and other liabilities. In addition, we are not restricted under the
indenture governing the notes from paying dividends or issuing or repurchasing our securities.
The provisions in the indenture relating to change of control transactions will not necessarily protect you in the event of a highly leveraged transaction.
The provisions in the indenture will not necessarily afford you protection in the event of a highly leveraged transaction that may adversely affect
you, including a reorganization, restructuring, merger or other similar transaction involving us. These transactions may not involve a change in voting
power or beneficial ownership or, even if they do, may not involve a change of the magnitude required under the definition of change of control repurchase
event in the indenture to trigger these provisions, notably, that the transactions are accompanied or followed within 60 days by a downgrade in the rating of
the notes offered under this prospectus supplement. Except as described under "Description of the Notes--Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control
Repurchase Event," the indenture will not contain provisions that permit the holders of the notes to require us to repurchase the notes in the event of a
takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.
We may not be able to repurchase all of the notes upon a change of control repurchase event.
As described under "Description of the Notes--Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event," we will be required to offer to
repurchase the notes upon the occurrence of a change of control repurchase event. Upon the occurrence of events constituting a Change of Control
Repurchase Event, we will also be required to offer to repurchase the notes. We may not have sufficient funds to repurchase the notes in cash at such time
or have the ability to arrange necessary financing on acceptable terms. In addition, our ability to repurchase the notes for cash may be limited by law or the
terms of other agreements relating to our indebtedness outstanding at the time.
You may not be able to determine when a change of control triggering event has occurred.
The definition of change of control, which is a condition precedent to a change of control triggering event, includes a phrase relating to the sale,
transfer or conveyance of "all or substantially all" of the Company's assets and the assets of its subsidiaries taken as a whole. There is no precisely
established definition of the phrase "substantially all" under applicable law. Accordingly, your ability to repurchase your notes as a result of a sale, transfer
or conveyance of less than all of its assets to another individual, group or entity may be uncertain.

There are no existing markets for the notes. If any develop, they may not be liquid.
The notes are a new issue of securities and there is currently no established market for the notes. We do not intend to list the notes on any national
securities exchange or to seek their quotation on any automated dealer quotation system. The underwriters have advised us that they currently intend to
make a market in the notes following the offering, as permitted by applicable laws or regulations. However, the underwriters have no obligation to make a
market in such notes and they may cease market-making activities at any time without notice. Further, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any
market that may develop for the notes, your ability to sell your notes or the price at which you will be able to sell your notes. Future trading prices of the
notes will depend on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, our financial condition and results of operations, the then-current ratings assigned to
