Introducing Polo Ralph Lauren x TÓPA the newest collaboration of the Ralph Lauren Artist in Residence program reflecting our evolved design approach with the artisans and communities that inspire us. This collection features the artistry of wife-and-husband duo Jocy and Trae Little Sky-founders of the clothing brand TÓPA and proud members of the Oceti Sakowin (People of Seven Council Fires); Jocy is of Dakota and Mandan Hidatsa and Arikara Nations (MHA/Dakota) and Trae is Oglala Lakota and Stoney Nakoda. Their creations merge modern silhouettes with distinctive Indigenous cultural elements to honor and preserve ancestral traditions while reflecting the beauty and vibrancy of their Northern Plains heritage. The name TÓPA meaning "four" in the languages of the Oceti Sakowin symbolizes the four directions four seasons four stages of life and four meaningful colors. Inspired by an heirloom from Jocy's grandmother this turtleneck sweater carries deep meaning through its overall composition signifying symmetry and harmonious balance. Intarsia-knit with thick-gauge wool and cashmere yarns its centerpiece is a star that honors the sacred four directions and it's bordered by patterns depicting clouds mountains animals and stars which reflect the deep connection between earth and sky. In this thoughtful interpretation each motif contributes to a story of place and direction.
