In March 2025, RBM Media Group welcomed an intimate crowd of visionaries to the inaugural session of Creative Control—a live lecture and Q&A experience with legendary designer John Vizzone, former Creative Director of Ralph Lauren Purple Label, Black Label, and Cifonelli.

Held in a private New York art studio, the evening merged style history, personal insight, and raw industry wisdom. Vizzone didn’t just speak on design—he pulled back the curtain on legacy branding, luxury tailoring, and what it truly means to craft aesthetic authority in today’s world.

The night attracted a sharp circle of designers, creative directors, models, stylists, and product creators looking to elevate their lens and deepen their game. RBM captured the entire session for archival footage, and the event set the tone for what’s now a traveling lecture series—next stop: Atlanta.
