We were asked what to wear to the upcoming Sundance Film Festival 2011! We thought nothing could be more classically American or emit that stylish western vibe than Ralph Lauren so we picked a few of his great pieces. Bundle up in RL’s ruffle cape and stretch black cords and accessorize with a little colorful infusion of turquoise and silver. We love the black and white palette that will work no matter where you are. Visit our post for great Ski Wear and Fun in the Snow To read more about Sundance Film Festival, see below!

Sundance Film Festival
In 1981, Robert Redford gathered a group of his friends and colleagues in the mountains of Utah to create an environment designed to foster independence, discovery, and new voices in American film. That spring, ten emerging filmmakers were invited to the first Sundance Institute Filmmakers/Directors Lab where they worked with leading writers and directors to develop their original independent film projects. In the remote natural setting and removed from the pressures of the marketplace, each emerging artist was encouraged to take creative risks and to craft a film true to their own, unique vision. In 1984, the Institute’s activities expanded to include development programs for theatre when the Utah Playwrights Conference became the Sundance Playwrights Lab. Since those first Labs, the Institute has grown into an internationally recognized resource for thousands of independent film, theatre, and music artists. The programs of Sundance Institute include the annual Sundance Film Festival, held in and around Park City, Utah, each January. Widely considered the premier platform for American and international independent film, the Festival has introduced audiences to some of the most original stories of the last three decades including Reservoir Dogs, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, American Splendor, An Inconvenient Truth, Little Miss Sunshine, and The Cove. –Sundance Film Festival
