He only entered the world back in December, but Saint West is already giving his famous family a run for their money in the fashion stakes.

Unsurprisingly, fashion houses have been clambering to send Kim and Kanye welcome gifts for their second child, in the hope the newborn will be seen wearing them in public.

One such designer is Ralph Lauren, who sent this downright gorgeous suede pilot jacket – along with a personal handwritten note, no less – to little Saint.

We die.

"Kim and Kanye, now it's my turn to say Masel Tov," the designer wrote on a page enclosed with the teeny tiny jacket. Printed on the jacket's inner silk lining is Saint's name, along with Ralph's signature.

Of course, two-month-old Saint isn't the first Kardashian-West tot to be showered with high-fashion gifts. 

His big sister North West, aged two, owns a whole host of customised Chanel and Balmain goodies, including a selection of Balmain military blazers in various colours. Perfect for ballet class:

Kim and Kanye have yet to share any photos of their first son with the world, posting only a birth announcement and a picture of North's hand holding his.

But when we do get our first glimpse, Saint will no doubt be clad in designer looks from head to toe.

Ralph Lauren has announced that he will be stepping down as CEO of his company.

He plans on having Stef Larsson, a previous global president of Old Navy, take his position. He will not be walking away from the company entirely however; he intends to stay on as creative director for the brand.

The creator of the fashion empire, based on a very country-club prep style, has been at the helm of the brand since 1967.

Stefan Larsson is also a former H&M executive and has been credited with reviving Gap’s brand after taking it over in 2012.

The New York Times reports that Ralph, 75, intended to remain active at the company and is viewing Stefan’s new position as a “partnership."

“When they start designing things I can’t understand, I’ll quit,” he said in an interview, “But I don’t feel like I’m stepping back now.”

After his 48 years at the company, there was speculation that his son would take over if he was to step down. David Lauren is on the board of the company’s directors and head of their advertising and marketing divisions.

At New York Fashion Week earlier this month, the Ralph Lauren front row was packed full of A-list stars; Julianne Moore, Jessica Chastain and Alec Baldwin were just a few spotted at the show.

The designs offered were apparently less "buttoned-up" than what has been seen in past seasons, and there was a lot more crop tops happening than expected.

However, the brand is known for a classic and tailored look which also featured prominently on the runway. We wonder what's to come under Stef's reign…

Ralph Lauren is reportedly very upset that Kate Middleton did not attend her husband, Prince William’s charity dinner at Windsor Castle last Tuesday.

The designer found out that the Duchess would not be attending the event six weeks prior to the event and wanted to cancel his own attendance, but was advised against it.

A source said that Ralph was “furious when he found out less than six weeks ago that Kate would not be there.”

It would appear that he wasn’t hiding his disappointment either as when Prince William was introduced to the American designer and his wife, he said: “I’m sorry my wife’s not here, you probably would rather you saw my wife.”

Ralph Lauren’s rep has said that he “had only ever been enthusiastic about attending the event.”

In other exciting Kate Middleton news, it has been rumoured that her no-show at last Tuesday’s soirée could be down to morning sickness.

Ooh, could Kate be expecting again?
