Ralph Rucci

From the beginning of his career, Rucci was inspired by the style of such fashion icons as Elsa Peretti (for her "biomorphic nature") and Pauline de Rothschild (for "creating harmony out of disorder").

Rucci's gowns are included in the permanent collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, DeYoung Museum in San Francisco, The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Phoenix Art Museum in Phoenix, and Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, among others.
