Christy, 55, was a vision in white, as she glided down the runway wearing a sheer, cream blazer, with a flowing chiffon skirt.
Her look was completed with dangling pearl earrings and a chunky statement belt with silver accents.
After a quick change, she reappeared on the ramp wearing a white and cream tuxedo-style suit.
The ensemble was finished with a pair of loose, distressed blue jeans and royal blue chandelier earrings.

For her day look, Naomi, 54, was dressed in a white camp and bomber jacket, in a nod to to her personal style in the Nineties.
Her alternate outfit was a long-beaded cream skirt paired with a white cropped T-shirt.
After their individual walks, Christy and Naomi walked down the runway together, smiling and holding hands, as the audience broke out in applause.
STAR-STRUCK
Jill Kortleve, Imaan Hammam, Christy’s daughter Grace Burns and Lucky Blue Smith, the model married to Nara Smith, were also recruited to show off Ralph Lauren’s latest designs.
Grace, 20, bore a striking resemblance to her supermodel mom when she appeared on the catwalk.
Her fit included two button-ups, layered over each other, a necktie, and a wrap skirt, in different hues of blue.
The mixed-print look was accessorized with a rattan bag and brown leather thong sandals, with long pearl earrings that hit at Grace’s shoulders.
Celebrities seated front row for the show included Usher, Jude Law, The Kissing Booth actress Joey King, Big Little Lies star Laura Dern, Thor actor Tom Hiddleston, and First Lady Jill Biden.
Other stars in attendance were Naomi Watts, Demi Singleton, Kasey Musgraves, Colman Domingo, and Justin Theroux.
After the show, Usher, who wore a sherbet lemon linen set, reflected on the presentation, musing, “American life. That’s American love. That’s family.”

Weeks before she walked the runway with her model daughter Grace, Christy posted a rare family photo on Instagram while lamenting her new status as an “empty nester.”
ALL IN THE FAMILY
Christy shares Grace and son, Finn, 18, with her husband, the filmmaker Edward Burns, 56.
In June, the mother-of-two marked Finn’s high-school graduation by sharing a family portrait on her profile, declaring, “I am officially an ’empty nester’ today!”
“How do I feel about it? Ask me in three months, after my baby has moved out of our home and settled into his college dorm across the country,” the Vogue model captioned her post.
Christy also thanked “all those who have loved and supported my kid along this wondrous journey so far,” before adding that she’s ready to embrace “whatever is outside of the nest.”
Christy was discovered at the age of 14 and made history five years later when she signed an exclusive contract with Calvin Klein.
Over the years, she has appeared in campaigns for Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Valentino, and Jason Wu.
