Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation Interim Financial Statements These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, income, comprehensive income, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. In addition, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted from this report as is permitted by the SEC's rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2015 (the "Fiscal 2015 10-K"). Basis of Consolidation These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements present the consolidated financial position, income, comprehensive income, and cash flows of the Company, including all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest and is determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Fiscal Periods The Company utilizes a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31. As such, fiscal year 2016 will end on April 2, 2016 and will be a 53-week period ("Fiscal 2016 "). Fiscal year 2015 ended on March 28, 2015 and was a 52-week period ("Fiscal 2015"). The third quarter of Fiscal 2016 ended on December 26, 2015 and was a 13-week period. The third quarter of Fiscal 2015 ended on December 27, 2014 and was also a 13-week period. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include reserves for bad debt, customer returns, discounts, end-of-season markdowns, operational chargebacks, and certain cooperative advertising allowances; the realizability of inventory; reserves for litigation and other contingencies; useful lives and impairments of long-lived tangible and intangible assets; fair value measurements; accounting for income taxes and related uncertain tax positions; valuation of stock-based compensation awards and related estimated forfeiture rates; reserves for restructuring activity; and accounting for business combinations, among others. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period's financial information in order to conform to the current period's presentation. Seasonality of Business The Company's business is typically affected by seasonal trends, with higher levels of wholesale sales in its second and fourth fiscal quarters and higher retail sales in its second and third fiscal quarters. These trends result primarily from the timing of seasonal wholesale shipments and key vacation travel, back-to-school, and holiday shopping periods impacting the Retail segment. In addition, fluctuations in sales, operating income, and cash flows in any fiscal quarter may be affected by other events affecting retail sales, such as changes in weather patterns. Accordingly, the Company's operating results and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results and cash flows that may be expected for the full Fiscal 2016 .

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized across all segments of the business when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the price has been fixed or is determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue within the Company's Wholesale segment is recognized at the time title passes and risk of loss is transferred to customers. Wholesale revenue is recorded net of estimates of returns, discounts, end-of-season markdowns, operational chargebacks, and certain cooperative advertising allowances. Returns and allowances require pre-approval from management and discounts are based on trade terms. Estimates for end-of-season markdown reserves are based on historical trends, actual and forecasted seasonal results, an evaluation of current economic and market conditions, retailer performance, and, in certain cases, contractual terms. Estimates for operational chargebacks are based on actual customer notifications of order fulfillment discrepancies and historical trends. The Company reviews and refines these estimates on at least a quarterly basis. The Company's historical estimates of these costs have not differed materially from actual results. Retail store and concession-based shop-within-shop revenue is recognized net of estimated returns at the time of sale to consumers. E-commerce revenue from sales of products ordered through the Company's e-commerce sites is recognized upon delivery of the shipment to its customers. Such revenue is also reduced by an estimate of returns. Gift cards issued by the Company are recorded as a liability until they are redeemed, at which point revenue is recognized. The Company recognizes income for unredeemed gift cards when the likelihood of redemption by a customer is remote and the Company determines that it does not have a legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed gift card to the relevant jurisdiction as unclaimed or abandoned property. Revenue from licensing arrangements is recognized when earned in accordance with the terms of the underlying agreements, generally based upon the higher of (i) contractually guaranteed minimum royalty levels or (ii) actual sales and royalty data, or estimates thereof, received from the Company's licensees. The Company accounts for sales taxes and other related taxes on a net basis, excluding such taxes from revenue. Shipping and Handling Costs The costs associated with shipping goods to customers are reflected as a component of selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in the consolidated statements of income. Shipping costs were approximately $13 million and $32 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 , respectively, and $13 million and $32 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 27, 2014 , respectively. The costs of preparing merchandise for sale, such as picking, packing, warehousing, and order charges ("handling costs") are also included in SG&A expenses. Handling costs were approximately $48 million and $133 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 , respectively, and $49 million and $136 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 27, 2014 , respectively. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in revenue. Net Income per Common Share Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Weighted-average common shares include shares of the Company's Class A and Class B common stock. Diluted net income per common share adjusts basic net income per common share for the dilutive effects of outstanding stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and any other potentially dilutive instruments, only in the periods in which such effects are dilutive under the treasury stock method. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate basic net income per common share is reconciled to shares used to calculate diluted net income per common share as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 26, December 27, December 26, December 27, (millions) Basic shares 84.9 88.1 85.7 88.5 Dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock, and RSUs 0.6 0.9 0.6 1.0 Diluted shares 85.5 89.0 86.3 89.5 All earnings per share amounts have been calculated using unrounded numbers. Options to purchase shares of the Company's Class A common stock at an exercise price greater than the average market price of the common stock during the reporting period are anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the computation of diluted net income per common share. In addition, the Company has outstanding RSUs that are issuable only upon the achievement of certain service and/or performance goals. Performance-based RSUs are included in the computation of diluted shares only to the extent that the underlying performance conditions (and any applicable market condition modifiers) (i) have been satisfied as of the end of the reporting period or (ii) would be considered satisfied if the end of the reporting period were the end of the related contingency period and the result would be dilutive under the treasury stock method. As of December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , there were approximately 2.5 million and 1.9 million , respectively, additional shares issuable upon exercise of anti-dilutive options and contingent vesting of performance-based RSUs, which were excluded from the diluted share calculations. Accounts Receivable In the normal course of business, the Company extends credit to wholesale customers that satisfy defined credit criteria. Accounts receivable is recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value, and is presented in the Company's consolidated balance sheets net of certain reserves and allowances. These reserves and allowances consist of (i) reserves for returns, discounts, end-of-season markdowns, operational chargebacks, and certain cooperative advertising allowances (see the Revenue Recognition section above for further discussion of related accounting policies) and (ii) allowances for doubtful accounts. A rollforward of the activity in the Company's reserves for returns, discounts, end-of-season markdowns, operational chargebacks, and certain cooperative advertising allowances is presented below: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 26, December 27, December 26, December 27, (millions) Beginning reserve balance $ 246 $ 284 $ 240 $ 254 Amount charged against revenue to increase reserve 181 189 570 558 Amount credited against customer accounts to decrease reserve (161 ) (206 ) (545 ) (538 ) Foreign currency translation (2 ) (5 ) (1 ) (12 ) Ending reserve balance $ 264 $ 262 $ 264 $ 262 An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of periodic aging of accounts receivable, assessments of collectability based on an evaluation of historical and anticipated trends, the financial condition of the Company's customers, and an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions, among other factors. The Company's allowance for doubtful accounts was $13 million and $11 million as of December 26, 2015 and March 28, 2015 , respectively. The change in the allowance for doubtful accounts was not material during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 . Concentration of Credit Risk The Company sells its wholesale merchandise primarily to major department and specialty stores around the world, and extends credit based on an evaluation of each customer's financial capacity and condition, usually without requiring collateral. In the Company's wholesale business, concentration of credit risk is relatively limited due to the large number of customers and their dispersion across many geographic areas. However, the Company has three key wholesale customers that generate significant sales volume. During Fiscal 2015 , the Company's sales to its largest wholesale customer, Macy's, Inc. ("Macy's"), accounted for approximately 12% of its total net revenues, and the Company's sales to its three largest wholesale customers (including Macy's) accounted for approximately 24% of total net revenues. As of December 26, 2015 , these three key wholesale customers constituted approximately 42% of total gross accounts receivable. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company records all derivative financial instruments on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value. For derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, the effective portion of changes in their fair value is either (i) offset against the changes in fair value of the related hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or (ii) recognized in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") until the hedged item is recognized in earnings, depending on whether the derivative is being used to hedge against changes in fair value or cash flows and net investments, respectively. Each derivative instrument that qualifies for hedge accounting is expected to be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged. For each derivative instrument that is designated as a hedge, the Company formally documents the related risk management objective and strategy, including identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, and the risk exposure, as well as how hedge effectiveness will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively over the instrument's term. To assess hedge effectiveness, the Company generally uses regression analysis, a statistical method, to compare the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument to the change in fair value or cash flows of the related hedged item. The extent to which a hedging instrument has been and is expected to remain highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows is assessed and documented by the Company on at least a quarterly basis. As a result of its use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to such contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate this counterparty credit risk, the Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon an evaluation of their credit ratings and certain other factors, adhering to established limits for credit exposure. The Company's established policies and procedures for mitigating credit risk from derivative transactions include ongoing review and assessment of its counterparties' creditworthiness. The Company also enters into master netting arrangements with counterparties, when possible, to mitigate credit risk associated with its derivative instruments. In the event of default or termination (as such terms are defined within the respective master netting arrangement), these arrangements allow the Company to net-settle amounts payable and receivable related to multiple derivative transactions with the same counterparty. The master netting arrangements specify a number of events of default and termination, including, among others, the failure to make timely payments. The fair values of the Company's derivative instruments are recorded on its consolidated balance sheets on a gross basis. For cash flow reporting purposes, proceeds received or amounts paid upon the settlement of a derivative instrument are classified in the same manner as the related item being hedged, primarily within cash flows from operating activities. Cash Flow Hedges The Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce its risk related to exchange rate fluctuations on inventory transactions, intercompany royalty payments made by certain of its international operations, intercompany contributions made to fund certain marketing efforts of its international operations, and other foreign currency-denominated operational cash flows. To the extent forward foreign currency exchange contracts are designated as cash flow hedges and are highly effective in offsetting changes in the value of the hedged items, the related gains or losses are initially deferred in equity as a component of AOCI and are subsequently recognized in the consolidated statements of income as follows: • Forecasted Inventory Transactions — recognized as part of the cost of the inventory being hedged within cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold to a third party. • Intercompany Royalty Payments and Marketing Contributions — recognized within foreign currency gains (losses) generally in the period in which the related payments or contributions being hedged are received or paid. To the extent that a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is not considered effective, any change in its fair value relating to such ineffectiveness is immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). If it is determined that a derivative instrument has not been highly effective, and will continue not to be highly effective in hedging the designated exposure, hedge accounting is discontinued and further gains (losses) are immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). Upon discontinuance of hedge accounting, the cumulative change in fair value of the derivative instrument previously recorded in AOCI is recognized in earnings when the related hedged item affects earnings, consistent with the originally-documented hedging strategy, unless the forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring, in which case the accumulated amount is immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). Hedge of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation Changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument or the carrying value of a non-derivative instrument that is designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation are reported in the same manner as a translation adjustment, to the extent it is effective. In assessing the effectiveness of a derivative financial instrument that is designated as a hedge of a net investment, the Company uses a method based on changes in spot rates to measure the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes on both its foreign subsidiary net investment and the related hedging instrument. If the notional amount of the instrument designated as the hedge of a net investment is greater than the portion of the net investment being hedged, hedge ineffectiveness is recognized immediately in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). To the extent the instrument remains effective, changes in its value are recorded in equity as foreign currency translation gains (losses), a component of AOCI, and are recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses) only upon the sale or liquidation of the hedged net investment. Fair Value Hedges Changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument that is designated as a fair value hedge, along with offsetting changes in the fair value of the related hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recorded in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness is recorded in earnings to the extent that the change in the fair value of the hedged item does not offset the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument. Undesignated Hedges All of the Company's undesignated hedges are entered into to hedge specific economic risks, particularly foreign currency exchange rate risk related to foreign currency-denominated balances. Changes in the fair value of undesignated derivative instruments are immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). See Note 13 for further discussion of the Company's derivative financial instruments. Refer to Note 3 in the Fiscal 2015 10-K for a summary of all of the Company's significant accounting policies.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-17, "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes" ("ASU 2015-17"). Currently, entities are required to present deferred tax assets and liabilities as current and noncurrent on the balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 simplifies the current guidance by requiring entities to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities, together with any related valuation allowance, as noncurrent on the balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 is effective for the Company beginning in its fiscal year 2018, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 is not expected to impact the Company's consolidated financial statements other than the change in presentation of deferred tax assets and liabilities within its consolidated balance sheets. Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 provides a single, comprehensive accounting model for revenues arising from contracts with customers that will supersede most existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under this model, revenue is recognized at an amount that an entity expects to be entitled to upon transferring control of goods or services to a customer, as opposed to when risks and rewards transfer to a customer under existing revenue recognition guidance. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers — Deferral of the Effective Date," which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. Accordingly, ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company beginning in its fiscal year 2019. ASU 2014-09 may be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented or through a cumulative adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance in the year of adoption. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Proposed Amendments to Current Accounting Standards The FASB is currently working on amendments to existing accounting standards governing a number of areas including, but not limited to, accounting for leases. In May 2013, the FASB issued an exposure draft, "Leases" (the "Exposure Draft"), which would replace the existing guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 840, "Leases." Under the Exposure Draft, among other changes in practice, a lessee's rights and obligations under most leases, including existing and new arrangements, would be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. The comment period for the Exposure Draft ended in September 2013. The FASB has now completed its redeliberations on certain portions of the proposal and plans to issue a final standard in the first quarter of 2016. When effective, this new standard will likely have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. However, as the standard-setting process is still ongoing, the Company is currently unable to determine the impact that this proposed change in accounting would have on its consolidated financial statements.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring and Other Charges	Restructuring and Other Charges A description of significant restructuring and other activities and related costs is included below. Fiscal 2016 Global Reorganization Plan On May 12, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved a reorganization and restructuring plan comprised of the following major actions: (i) the reorganization of the Company from its current channel and regional structure to an integrated global brand-based operating structure, which will streamline the Company's business processes to better align its cost structure with its long-term growth strategy; (ii) a strategic store and shop-within-shop performance review conducted by region and brand; (iii) a targeted corporate functional area review; and (iv) the consolidation of certain of the Company's luxury lines (collectively, the "Global Reorganization Plan"). The Global Reorganization Plan will result in a reduction in workforce and, once the performance review is complete, the closure of certain stores and shop-within-shops. The Global Reorganization Plan is expected to be substantially implemented during the course of Fiscal 2017. The Company currently expects to incur total estimated charges of approximately $120 million to $150 million in connection with the Global Reorganization Plan, comprised of cash-related restructuring charges totaling approximately $85 million to $100 million and non-cash charges totaling approximately $35 million to $50 million . The Company's assessment of restructuring-related activities is still ongoing and incremental charges beyond this range may be incurred. A summary of the charges recorded in connection with the Global Reorganization Plan during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 is as follows: December 26, 2015 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended (millions) Cash-related restructuring charges: Severance and benefit costs $ 11 $ 49 Lease termination and store closure costs — 7 Other cash charges (a) 3 11 Total cash-related restructuring charges 14 67 Non-cash charges: Impairment of assets (see Note 8) 9 24 Accelerated stock-based compensation expense (b) 9 9 Inventory-related charges (c) 10 13 Total non-cash charges 28 46 Total charges $ 42 $ 113 (a) Other cash charges primarily consisted of consulting fees recorded in connection with the Global Reorganization Plan. (b) Accelerated stock-based compensation expense, which is recorded within restructuring and other charges in the unaudited interim consolidated statements of income, was recorded in connection with vesting provisions associated with certain separation agreements. (c) Inventory-related charges are recorded within cost of goods sold in the unaudited interim consolidated statements of income. A summary of the activity in the restructuring reserve related to the Global Reorganization Plan is as follows: Severance and Benefit Costs Lease Termination and Store Closure Costs Other Cash Charges Total (millions) Balance at March 28, 2015 $ — $ — $ — $ — Additions charged to expense 49 7 11 67 Cash payments charged against reserve (26 ) (2 ) (7 ) (35 ) Non-cash adjustments — 1 — 1 Balance at December 26, 2015 $ 23 $ 6 $ 4 $ 33 Other Charges During both the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 , the Company recorded other charges of $34 million related to its pending customs audit (see Note 14 ). Additionally, during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 , the Company recorded other charges of $1 million and $13 million , respectively, primarily related to the settlement of certain litigation claims. Fiscal 2015 During Fiscal 2015, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $10 million , $7 million of which were recorded during the nine months ended December 27, 2014 . These charges were primarily related to severance and benefit costs associated with certain of its retail, wholesale, and corporate operations. At March 28, 2015 , the restructuring reserve related to these charges was $5 million , which was reduced by payments to $2 million at December 26, 2015 .

Income Taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Effective Tax Rate The Company's effective tax rate, which is calculated by dividing each fiscal period's provision for income taxes by pretax income, was 27.5% and 28.6% during the three-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , respectively, and 27.6% and 29.0% during the nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , respectively. The effective tax rates in the periods presented were lower than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35% principally as a result of the proportion of earnings generated in lower taxed foreign jurisdictions versus the U.S. In addition, the effective tax rate for the three months ended December 26, 2015 was favorably impacted by tax benefits associated with provision to tax return adjustments. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended December 26, 2015 was also favorably impacted by the reversal of certain tax liabilities due to the expiration of statutes of limitations and a change in estimate related to the assessment period of certain tax liabilities, as discussed below. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended December 27, 2014 was also favorably impacted by the legal entity restructuring of certain of the Company's foreign operations during Fiscal 2015, partially offset by additional tax reserves associated with the conclusion of tax examinations. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2016, the Company concluded, with the assistance of a third-party consultant, that based on recent audit settlements and taxpayer audit trends, the assessment period associated with certain tax liabilities established under ASC Topic 740, "Income Taxes," should be reduced. This change is considered a change in estimate for accounting purposes and the related impact was recorded during the second quarter of Fiscal 2016. This change lowered the Company's provision for income taxes by $8 million , including interest and penalties, and net of deferred tax asset reversals, and increased basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.09 for the nine-month period ended December 26, 2015 . Uncertain Income Tax Benefits The Company classifies interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of its provision for income taxes. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, was $80 million and $116 million as of December 26, 2015 and March 28, 2015 , respectively, and is included within non-current liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the consolidated balance sheets. The reduction in unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, primarily related to the reversal of tax liabilities of $11 million and $9 million due to the change in estimate previously discussed and the expiration of statutes of limitations, respectively, as well as tax audit settlements of $17 million . The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Company's effective tax rate was $60 million and $85 million as of December 26, 2015 and March 28, 2015 , respectively. Future Changes in Unrecognized Tax Benefits The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits relating to the Company's tax positions is subject to change based on future events including, but not limited to, settlements of ongoing tax audits and assessments and the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations. Although the outcomes and timing of such events are highly uncertain, it is reasonably possible that the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, could potentially be reduced by approximately $11 million during the next 12 months. However, changes in the occurrence, expected outcomes, and timing of such events could cause the Company's current estimate to change materially in the future. The Company files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, as well as tax returns in various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is generally no longer subject to examinations by the relevant tax authorities for years prior to its fiscal year ended April 1, 2006.

Debt

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	Debt Debt consists of the following: December 26, March 28, (millions) $300 million 2.125% Senior Notes (a) $ 298 $ 298 $300 million 2.625% Senior Notes (b) 298 — Commercial paper notes 15 234 Total debt 611 532 Less: short-term debt 15 234 Total long-term debt $ 596 $ 298 (a) During the first quarter of Fiscal 2016, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract which it designated as a hedge against changes in the fair value of its fixed-rate 2.125% Senior Notes (see Note 13 ). Accordingly, the carrying value of the 2.125% Senior Notes as of December 26, 2015 reflects an adjustment of $1 million for the change in fair value attributable to the benchmark interest rate. The carrying value of the 2.125% Senior Notes is also net of unamortized debt issuance costs and discount of $1 million and $2 million as of December 26, 2015 and March 28, 2015 , respectively. (b) The carrying value of the 2.625% Senior Notes is net of unamortized debt issuance costs and discount of $2 million as of December 26, 2015 . Senior Notes In September 2013, the Company completed a registered public debt offering and issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes due September 26, 2018 , which bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.125% , payable semi-annually (the "2.125% Senior Notes"). The 2.125% Senior Notes were issued at a price equal to 99.896% of their principal amount. The proceeds from this offering were used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of the Company's previously outstanding €209 million principal amount of 4.5% Euro-denominated notes, which matured on October 4, 2013 . In August 2015, the Company completed a second registered public debt offering and issued an additional $300 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes due August 18, 2020 , which bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.625% , payable semi-annually (the "2.625% Senior Notes"). The 2.625% Senior Notes were issued at a price equal to 99.795% of their principal amount. The proceeds from this offering were used for general corporate purposes. The Company has the option to redeem the 2.125% Senior Notes and 2.625% Senior Notes (collectively, the "Senior Notes"), in whole or in part, at any time at a price equal to accrued and unpaid interest on the redemption date, plus the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the series of Senior Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present value of Remaining Scheduled Payments, as defined in the supplemental indentures governing such Senior Notes (together with the indenture governing the Senior Notes, the "Indenture"). The Indenture contains certain covenants that restrict the Company's ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur certain liens; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; consolidate or merge with another party; or sell, lease, or convey all or substantially all of the Company's property or assets to another party. However, the Indenture does not contain any financial covenants. Commercial Paper In May 2014, the Company initiated a commercial paper borrowing program (the "Commercial Paper Program") that allowed it to issue up to $300 million of unsecured commercial paper notes through private placement using third-party broker-dealers. In May 2015, the Company initiated an expansion of its Commercial Paper Program to allow for a total issuance of up to $500 million of unsecured commercial paper notes. Borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program are supported by the Global Credit Facility, as defined below, and may be used to support the Company's general working capital and corporate needs. Maturities of commercial paper notes vary, but cannot exceed 397 days from the date of issuance. Commercial paper notes issued under the Commercial Paper Program rank equally with the Company's other forms of unsecured indebtedness. As of December 26, 2015 , the Company had $15 million in borrowings outstanding under its Commercial Paper Program, with a weighted-average annual interest rate of 0.42% and a weighted-average remaining term of 2 days . Revolving Credit Facilities Global Credit Facility In February 2015, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit facility that provides for a $500 million senior unsecured revolving line of credit through February 11, 2020 (the "Global Credit Facility") under terms and conditions substantially similar to those previously in effect. The Global Credit Facility is also used to support the issuance of letters of credit and the maintenance of the Commercial Paper Program. Borrowings under the Global Credit Facility may be denominated in U.S. Dollars and other currencies, including Euros, Hong Kong Dollars, and Japanese Yen. The Company has the ability to expand its borrowing availability under the Global Credit Facility to $750 million , subject to the agreement of one or more new or existing lenders under the facility to increase their commitments. There are no mandatory reductions in borrowing ability throughout the term of the Global Credit Facility. As of December 26, 2015 , there were no borrowings outstanding under the Global Credit Facility and the Company was contingently liable for $9 million of outstanding letters of credit. The Global Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company's ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of assets; merge with or acquire other companies; liquidate or dissolve itself; engage in businesses that are not in a related line of business; make loans, advances, or guarantees; engage in transactions with affiliates; and make certain investments. The Global Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain a maximum ratio of Adjusted Debt to Consolidated EBITDAR (the "leverage ratio") of no greater than 3.75 as of the date of measurement for the four most recent consecutive fiscal quarters. Adjusted Debt is defined generally as consolidated debt outstanding plus eight times consolidated rent expense for the last four consecutive fiscal quarters. Consolidated EBITDAR is defined generally as consolidated net income plus (i) income tax expense, (ii) net interest expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense, and (iv) consolidated rent expense. As of December 26, 2015 , no Event of Default (as such term is defined pursuant to the Global Credit Facility) has occurred under the Company's Global Credit Facility . Pan-Asia Credit Facilities Certain of the Company's subsidiaries in Asia have uncommitted credit facilities with regional branches of JPMorgan Chase (the "Banks") in China and South Korea (the "Pan-Asia Credit Facilities"). These credit facilities are subject to annual renewal and may be used to fund general working capital and corporate needs of the Company's operations in the respective countries. Borrowings under the Pan-Asia Credit Facilities are guaranteed by the parent company and are granted at the sole discretion of the Banks, subject to availability of the Banks' funds and satisfaction of certain regulatory requirements. The Pan-Asia Credit Facilities do not contain any financial covenants. The Company's Pan-Asia Credit Facilities by country are as follows: • China Credit Facility — provides Ralph Lauren Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. with a revolving line of credit of up to 100 million Chinese Renminbi (approximately $15 million ) through April 7, 2016 , and may also be used to support bank guarantees. As of December 26, 2015 , bank guarantees supported by this facility were not material. • South Korea Credit Facility — provides Ralph Lauren (Korea) Ltd. with a revolving line of credit of up to 47 billion South Korean Won (approximately $40 million ) through October 31, 2016 . As of December 26, 2015 , there were no borrowings outstanding under the Pan-Asia Credit Facilities. Refer to Note 14 of the Fiscal 2015 10-K for additional disclosure of the terms and conditions of the Company's debt and credit facilities.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	9 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements U.S. GAAP establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy for a particular asset or liability depends on the inputs used in its valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are market-based (observable) or internally-derived (unobservable). A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows: • Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. • Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable. • Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on unobservable prices or valuation techniques that are significant to the fair value measurement. The following table summarizes the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, excluding accrued interest components: December 26, March 28, (millions) Financial assets recorded at fair value: Corporate bonds — non-U.S. (a) $ 8 $ 8 Derivative financial instruments (b) 45 87 Total $ 53 $ 95 Financial liabilities recorded at fair value: Derivative financial instruments (b) $ 19 $ 19 Total $ 19 $ 19 (a) Based on Level 1 measurements. (b) Based on Level 2 measurements. To the extent the Company invests in bonds, such investments are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value in its consolidated balance sheets based upon quoted prices in active markets. The Company's derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value in its consolidated balance sheets and are valued using pricing models that are primarily based on market observable external inputs, including spot and forward currency exchange rates, benchmark interest rates, and discount rates consistent with the instrument's tenor, and consider the impact of the Company's own credit risk, if any. Changes in counterparty credit risk are also considered in the valuation of derivative financial instruments. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and time deposits are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value based on Level 1 measurements. The Company's debt instruments are recorded at their carrying values in its consolidated balance sheets, which may differ from their respective fair values. The fair values of the Senior Notes are estimated based on external pricing data, including available quoted market prices, and with reference to comparable debt instruments with similar interest rates, credit ratings, and trading frequency, among other factors. The fair value of the Company's commercial paper notes is estimated using external pricing data, based on interest rates and credit ratings for similar issuances with the same remaining term as the Company's outstanding borrowings. Due to their short-term nature, the fair value of commercial paper notes outstanding at December 26, 2015 approximates their carrying value. The following table summarizes the carrying values and the estimated fair values of the Company's debt instruments: December 26, 2015 March 28, 2015 Carrying Value Fair Value (a) Carrying Value Fair Value (a) (millions) $300 million 2.125% Senior Notes $ 298 (b) $ 303 $ 298 (b) $ 304 $300 million 2.625% Senior Notes 298 (b) 303 — — Commercial paper notes 15 15 234 234 (a) Based on Level 2 measurements. (b) See Note 11 for discussion of the carrying values of the Company's Senior Notes as of December 26, 2015 and March 28, 2015 . Unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the Company's debt do not result in the realization or expenditure of cash, unless the debt is retired prior to its maturity. Non-financial Assets and Liabilities The Company's non-financial assets, which primarily consist of goodwill, other intangible assets, and property and equipment, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value. However, on a periodic basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable (and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets), non-financial instruments are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written down to and recorded at fair value, considering external market participant assumptions. During the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges to reduce the carrying values of certain long-lived store and shop-within-shop assets to their fair values. The fair values of these assets were determined based on Level 3 measurements. Inputs to these fair value measurements included estimates of the amount and timing of the stores' or shop-within-shops' net future discounted cash flows based on historical experience, current trends, and market conditions. The following table summarizes the impairment charges recorded during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 : Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 26, December 27, December 26, December 27, (millions) Aggregate carrying value of long-lived assets written down to fair value $ 9 $ — $ 24 $ 2 Impairment charges (see Note 8) (9 ) — (24 ) (2 ) No goodwill impairment charges were recorded during either of the nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 or December 27, 2014 . The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment assessment using a qualitative approach as of the beginning of the second quarter of Fiscal 2016. In performing the assessment, the Company identified and considered the significance of relevant key factors, events, and circumstances that affected the fair values and/or carrying amounts of its reporting units. These factors included external factors such as macroeconomic, industry, and market conditions, as well as entity-specific factors, such as the Company's actual and planned financial performance. Additionally, the results of the Company's most recent quantitative goodwill impairment test indicated that the fair values of its reporting units significantly exceeded their respective carrying values. Based on the results of its qualitative goodwill impairment assessment, the Company concluded that it is not more likely than not that the fair values of its reporting units are less than their respective carrying values, and there were no reporting units at risk of impairment.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Financial Instruments	Financial Instruments Derivative Financial Instruments The Company is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily relating to certain anticipated cash flows and the value of reported net assets of its international operations, as well as changes in the fair value of its fixed-rate debt attributed to changes in the benchmark interest rate. Consequently, the Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate such risks. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes. The following table summarizes the Company's outstanding derivative instruments on a gross basis as recorded in its consolidated balance sheets as of December 26, 2015 and March 28, 2015 : Notional Amounts Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Derivative Instrument (a) December 26, March 28, December 26, March 28, December 26, March 28, Balance Sheet Line (b) Fair Value Balance Sheet Line (b) Fair Value Balance Sheet Line (b) Fair Value Balance Sheet Line (b) Fair Value (millions) Designated Hedges: FC — Inventory purchases $ 597 $ 587 (e) $ 17 PP $ 49 AE $ 5 AE $ 9 FC — Other (c) 104 118 PP 1 PP 5 AE 1 AE 1 IRS — 2.125% Senior Notes 300 — — — — — ONCL 1 — — CCS — NI 307 — — — — — ONCL 7 — — Total Designated Hedges $ 1,308 $ 705 $ 18 $ 54 $ 14 $ 10 Undesignated Hedges: FC — Other (d) $ 580 $ 464 (f) $ 27 (g) $ 33 (h) $ 5 (i) $ 9 Total Hedges $ 1,888 $ 1,169 $ 45 $ 87 $ 19 $ 19 (a) FC = Forward foreign currency exchange contracts; IRS = Interest rate swap contract; CCS = Cross-currency swap contract; NI = Net investment hedge.

The Company records and presents the fair values of all of its derivative assets and liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets on a gross basis, even though they are subject to master netting arrangements. However, if the Company were to offset and record the asset and liability balances of all of its derivative instruments on a net basis in accordance with the terms of each of its master netting arrangements, spread across eight separate counterparties, the amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 26, 2015 and March 28, 2015 would be adjusted from the current gross presentation as detailed in the following table: December 26, 2015 March 28, 2015 Derivative Instrument Gross Amounts Presented in the Balance Sheet Gross Amounts Not Offset in the Balance Sheet that are Subject to Master Netting Agreements Net Amount Gross Amounts Presented in the Balance Sheet Gross Amounts Not Offset in the Balance Sheet that are Subject to Master Netting Agreements Net Amount (millions) Derivative assets $ 45 $ (11 ) $ 34 $ 87 $ (14 ) $ 73 Derivative liabilities $ 19 $ (11 ) $ 8 $ 19 $ (14 ) $ 5 The Company's master netting arrangements do not require cash collateral to be pledged by the Company or its counterparties.

No material gains or losses relating to ineffective cash flow hedges were recognized during any of the fiscal periods presented. The following table summarizes the pretax impact of gains and losses from the Company's undesignated derivative instruments on its unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 : Gains (Losses) Recognized in Earnings Location of Gains (Losses) Recognized in Earnings Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended Derivative Instrument December 26, December 27, December 26, December 27, (millions) Undesignated Hedges: FC — Other $ 2 $ 18 $ 4 $ 24 Foreign currency gains (losses) Total Undesignated Hedges $ 2 $ 18 $ 4 $ 24 Risk Management Strategies Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts The Company primarily enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce its risk related to exchange rate fluctuations on inventory transactions made in an entity's non-functional currency, intercompany royalty payments made by certain of its international operations, intercompany contributions made to fund certain marketing efforts of its international operations, and other foreign currency-denominated operational and intercompany balances and cash flows. As part of its overall strategy to manage the level of exposure to the risk of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, primarily to changes in the value of the Euro, the Japanese Yen, the South Korean Won, the Australian Dollar, the Canadian Dollar, the British Pound Sterling, and the Hong Kong Dollar, the Company hedges a portion of its foreign currency exposures anticipated over a two -year period. In doing so, the Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts that generally have maturities of two months to two years to provide continuing coverage throughout the hedging period. Interest Rate Swap Contract During the first quarter of Fiscal 2016, the Company entered into a pay-floating rate, receive-fixed rate interest rate swap contract which it designated as a hedge against changes in the fair value of its fixed-rate 2.125% Senior Notes attributed to changes in the benchmark interest rate (the "Interest Rate Swap"). The Interest Rate Swap, which matures on September 26, 2018 , has a notional amount of $300 million and swaps the fixed interest rate on the Company's 2.125% Senior Notes for a variable interest rate based on the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a fixed spread. Changes in the fair value of the Interest Rate Swap were offset by changes in the fair value of the 2.125% Senior Notes attributed to changes in the benchmark interest rate, with no resulting ineffectiveness recognized in earnings during either of the three-month or nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 . Cross-Currency Swap Contract During the first quarter of Fiscal 2016, the Company entered into a €280 million notional amount pay-floating rate, receive-floating rate cross-currency swap contract which it designated as a hedge of its net investment in certain of its European subsidiaries (the "Cross-Currency Swap"). The Cross-Currency Swap, which matures on September 26, 2018 , swaps the USD-based variable interest rate payment based on the 3-month LIBOR plus a fixed spread (as paid under the Interest Rate Swap described above) for a Euro-based variable interest rate payment based on the 3-month Euro Interbank Offered Rate plus a fixed spread. As a result, the Cross-Currency Swap, in conjunction with the Interest Rate Swap, economically converts the Company's $300 million fixed-rate 2.125% Senior Notes to a €280 million floating-rate Euro-denominated liability. No material gains or losses related to the ineffective portion, or the amount excluded from effectiveness testing, were recognized in earnings during either the three-month or nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 . See Note 3 for further discussion of the Company's accounting policies relating to its derivative financial instruments. Investments As of December 26, 2015 , the Company's short-term and non-current investments consisted of $688 million of time deposits and $8 million of non-U.S. corporate bonds, respectively. As of March 28, 2015 , the Company's short-term and non-current investments consisted of $644 million of time deposits and $8 million of non-U.S. corporate bonds, respectively. No significant realized or unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale investments or other-than-temporary impairment charges were recorded during any of the fiscal periods presented. See Note 3 to the Fiscal 2015 10-K for further discussion of the Company's accounting policies relating to its investments.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Customs Audit In September 2014, one of the Company's international subsidiaries received a pre-assessment notice from the relevant customs officials concerning the method used to determine the dutiable value of imported inventory. The notice communicated the customs officials' assertion that the Company should have applied an alternative duty method, which could result in up to approximately $46 million in incremental duty and non-creditable value-added tax, including approximately $11 million in interest and penalties. The Company believed that the alternative duty method claimed by the customs officials was not applicable to the Company's facts and circumstances and vigorously contested their asserted methodology. In October 2014, the Company filed an appeal of the pre-assessment notice in accordance with the standard procedures established by the relevant customs authorities. In response to the filing of the Company's appeal of the pre-assessment notice, the review committee instructed the customs officials to reconsider their assertion of the alternative duty method and conduct a re-audit to evaluate the facts and circumstances noted in the pre-assessment notice. In December 2015, the Company received the results of the re-audit conducted and a customs audit assessment notice in the amount of approximately $34 million , which the Company recorded within restructuring and other charges in its unaudited interim consolidated statements of income during the third quarter of Fiscal 2016 (see Note 9). Although the Company disagrees with the assessment notice, in order to secure the Company's rights, the Company must pay the assessment amount and subsequently file its appeal with the customs authorities within 90 days of receipt of notification of such assessment. The Company continues to maintain its original filing position and will vigorously contest any other proposed methodology asserted by the customs officials. Should the Company be successful in its merits, a full refund for the amounts paid plus interest will be required to be paid by the customs authorities. If the Company is unsuccessful in its current appeal with the customs authorities, it may further appeal this decision within the courts. At this time, while the Company believes that the customs officials' claims are not meritorious and that the Company should prevail, the outcome of the appeals process is subject to risk and uncertainty. Other Matters The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation, other legal claims, and proceedings involving matters associated with or incidental to its business, including, among other things, matters involving credit card fraud, trademark and other intellectual property, licensing, importation and exportation of its products, taxation, unclaimed property, and employee relations. The Company believes at present that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements. However, the Company's assessment of any current litigation or other legal claims could potentially change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known or determinations by judges, juries, or other finders of fact which are not in accord with management's evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims. In the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements that provide general indemnifications. The Company has not made any significant indemnification payments under such agreements in the past, and does not currently anticipate incurring any material indemnification payments.

Repurchases of shares of Class A common stock are subject to overall business and market conditions. In addition, during each of the nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , 0.2 million shares of Class A common stock, at a cost of $19 million and $32 million , respectively, were surrendered to, or withheld by, the Company in satisfaction of withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of awards under the Company's 1997 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the "1997 Incentive Plan"), and its Amended and Restated 2010 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the "2010 Incentive Plan"). Repurchased and surrendered shares are accounted for as treasury stock at cost and held in treasury for future use. Dividends Since 2003, the Company has maintained a regular quarterly cash dividend program on its common stock. On February 3, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase to the Company's quarterly cash dividend on its common stock from $0.45 per share to $0.50 per share. The third quarter Fiscal 2016 dividend of $0.50 per share was declared on December 11, 2015 , was payable to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 24, 2015 , and was paid on January 8, 2016 . Dividends paid amounted to $128 million and $119 million during the nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , respectively. Conversion of Stock-based Compensation Awards During the first quarter of Fiscal 2015, the Company converted certain fully-vested and expensed stock-based compensation awards to a cash contribution into a deferred compensation account. The Company recorded the excess of these awards' then current redemption value over their original grant-date fair value to retained earnings, with a corresponding increase to other non-current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

Stock-based Compensation

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Stock-based Compensation	Stock-based Compensation The Company's stock-based compensation awards are currently issued under the 2010 Incentive Plan, which was approved by its stockholders on August 5, 2010. However, any prior awards granted under the 1997 Incentive Plan remain subject to the terms of that plan. Any awards that expire, are forfeited, or are surrendered to the Company in satisfaction of taxes are available for issuance under the 2010 Incentive Plan. Stock-based compensation awards that may be issued under the 2010 Incentive Plan include, but are not limited to, (i) stock options, (ii) restricted stock, and (iii) RSUs. In recent years, the Company's annual grants of stock-based compensation awards to its employees primarily consisted of stock options and RSUs. However, in Fiscal 2016, the annual grants consisted entirely of RSUs, as the Company elected to issue service-based RSUs in lieu of stock options. Additionally, new vesting provisions for certain awards granted to retirement-eligible employees were introduced. Specifically, beginning in Fiscal 2016, for certain service-based and performance-based RSUs granted to retirement-eligible employees, or employees who will become retirement-eligible prior to the end of the awards' respective stated vesting periods, vesting continues post-retirement for all or a portion of the remaining unvested RSUs. Accordingly, the related stock-based compensation expense is recognized on an accelerated basis over a term commensurate with the period that the employee is required to provide service in order to vest in the award. Refer to Note 20 in the Fiscal 2015 10-K for additional details surrounding the Company's stock-based compensation awards, including information related to vesting terms, service and performance conditions, and payout percentages. Impact on Results A summary of total stock-based compensation expense and the related income tax benefits recognized during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 is as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 26, December 27, December 26, December 27, (millions) Compensation expense $ 25 (a) $ 18 $ 79 (a) $ 60 Income tax benefit $ (10 ) $ (7 ) $ (30 ) $ (23 ) (a) Includes approximately $9 million of accelerated stock-based compensation expense recorded within restructuring and other charges in the Company's unaudited interim consolidated statements of income during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 (see Note 9 ). All other stock-based compensation expense was recorded within SG&A expenses. The Company issues its annual grants of stock-based compensation awards in the first half of each fiscal year. Due to the timing of the annual grants and other factors, including the composition of the retirement-eligible employee population, stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 is not indicative of the level of compensation expense expected to be incurred for the full Fiscal 2016 . Stock Options A summary of stock option activity under all plans for the nine months ended December 26, 2015 is as follows: Number of Options (thousands) Options outstanding at March 28, 2015 3,225 Granted — Exercised (588 ) Cancelled/Forfeited (150 ) Options outstanding at December 26, 2015 2,487 Restricted Stock Awards and Service-based RSUs The fair values of restricted stock awards granted to non-employee directors are determined based on the fair value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. The weighted-average grant date fair values of restricted stock awards granted, which entitle holders to receive cash dividends in connection with the payments of dividends on the Company's Class A common stock, were $131.40 and $162.36 per share during the nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , respectively. The fair values of service-based RSUs granted to certain of the Company's senior executives, as well as to certain of its other employees, are based on the fair value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant, adjusted to reflect the absence of dividends for any awards not entitled to accrue dividend equivalents while outstanding. The weighted-average grant date fair values of service-based RSU awards granted were $126.06 and $167.26 per share during the nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , respectively. A summary of restricted stock and service-based RSU activity during the nine months ended December 26, 2015 is as follows: Number of Shares Restricted Stock Service-based RSUs (thousands) Nonvested at March 28, 2015 5 47 Granted 8 495 Vested (3 ) (13 ) Forfeited (1 ) (36 ) Nonvested at December 26, 2015 9 493 Performance-based RSUs The fair values of the Company's performance-based RSUs that are not subject to a market condition in the form of a total shareholder return ("TSR") modifier are based on the fair value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant, adjusted to reflect the absence of dividends for those securities that are not entitled to dividend equivalents. The weighted-average grant date fair values of performance-based RSUs that do not contain a TSR modifier granted during the nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 and December 27, 2014 were $126.71 and $157.10 per share, respectively. The fair values of the Company's performance-based RSUs with a TSR modifier are determined on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. This pricing model uses multiple simulations to evaluate the probability of the Company achieving various stock price levels to determine its expected TSR performance ranking. No such awards were granted during the nine months ended December 26, 2015 . The weighted-average grant date fair value of performance-based RSUs with a TSR modifier granted during the nine months ended December 27, 2014 was $169.47 . A summary of performance-based RSU activity during the nine months ended December 26, 2015 is as follows: Number of Shares Performance-based RSUs — without TSR Modifier Performance-based RSUs — with TSR Modifier (thousands) Nonvested at March 28, 2015 697 214 Granted 339 — Change due to performance/market condition achievement (8 ) (20 ) Vested (293 ) (50 ) Forfeited (43 ) (2 ) Nonvested at December 26, 2015 692 142

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	Segment Information The Company has three reportable segments based on its business activities and organization: Wholesale, Retail, and Licensing. These segments offer a variety of products through different channels of distribution. The Wholesale segment consists of apparel, accessories, home furnishings, and related products which are sold to major department stores, specialty stores, golf and pro shops, and the Company's owned, licensed, and franchised retail stores in the U.S. and overseas. The Retail segment consists of the Company's integrated worldwide retail operations, which sell products through its retail stores, concession-based shop-within-shops, and e-commerce sites, which are purchased from the Company's licensees, suppliers, and Wholesale segment. The Licensing segment generates revenues from royalties earned on the sale of the Company's apparel, home, and other products internationally and domestically through licensing alliances. The licensing agreements grant the licensees rights to use the Company's various trademarks in connection with the manufacture and sale of designated products in specified geographical areas for specified periods. The accounting policies of the Company's segments are consistent with those described in Notes 2 and 3 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the Fiscal 2015 10-K. Sales and transfers between segments are generally recorded at cost and treated as transfers of inventory. All intercompany revenues, including such sales between segments, are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance. Each segment's performance is evaluated based upon operating income before restructuring charges and certain other one-time items, such as legal charges, if any. Certain corporate overhead expenses related to global functions, most notably the Company's executive office, information technology, finance and accounting, human resources, and legal departments, largely remain at corporate. Additionally, other costs that cannot be allocated to the segments based on specific usage are also maintained at corporate, including corporate advertising and marketing expenses, depreciation and amortization of corporate assets, and other general and administrative expenses resulting from corporate-level activities and projects. Net revenues and operating income for each of the Company's reportable segments are as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 26, December 27, December 26, December 27, (millions) Net revenues: Wholesale $ 786 $ 837 $ 2,355 $ 2,488 Retail 1,113 1,149 3,044 3,115 Licensing 47 47 135 132 Total net revenues $ 1,946 $ 2,033 $ 5,534 $ 5,735 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended December 26, December 27, December 26, December 27, (millions) Operating income: Wholesale (a) $ 183 $ 207 $ 567 $ 634 Retail (b) 136 194 369 499 Licensing 42 42 120 120 361 443 1,056 1,253 Unallocated corporate expenses (114 ) (127 ) (418 ) (401 ) Unallocated restructuring and other charges (c) (58 ) (1 ) (123 ) (7 ) Total operating income $ 189 $ 315 $ 515 $ 845 (a) During the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 , the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $1 million and $6 million , respectively, primarily to write off certain fixed assets related to its shop-within-shops in connection with the Global Reorganization Plan.

Summary of Significant Accoun26

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Consolidation	Basis of Consolidation These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements present the consolidated financial position, income, comprehensive income, and cash flows of the Company, including all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest and is determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fiscal Year	Fiscal Periods The Company utilizes a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31. As such, fiscal year 2016 will end on April 2, 2016 and will be a 53-week period ("Fiscal 2016 "). Fiscal year 2015 ended on March 28, 2015 and was a 52-week period ("Fiscal 2015"). The third quarter of Fiscal 2016 ended on December 26, 2015 and was a 13-week period. The third quarter of Fiscal 2015 ended on December 27, 2014 and was also a 13-week period.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include reserves for bad debt, customer returns, discounts, end-of-season markdowns, operational chargebacks, and certain cooperative advertising allowances; the realizability of inventory; reserves for litigation and other contingencies; useful lives and impairments of long-lived tangible and intangible assets; fair value measurements; accounting for income taxes and related uncertain tax positions; valuation of stock-based compensation awards and related estimated forfeiture rates; reserves for restructuring activity; and accounting for business combinations, among others.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period's financial information in order to conform to the current period's presentation.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized across all segments of the business when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the price has been fixed or is determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue within the Company's Wholesale segment is recognized at the time title passes and risk of loss is transferred to customers. Wholesale revenue is recorded net of estimates of returns, discounts, end-of-season markdowns, operational chargebacks, and certain cooperative advertising allowances. Returns and allowances require pre-approval from management and discounts are based on trade terms. Estimates for end-of-season markdown reserves are based on historical trends, actual and forecasted seasonal results, an evaluation of current economic and market conditions, retailer performance, and, in certain cases, contractual terms. Estimates for operational chargebacks are based on actual customer notifications of order fulfillment discrepancies and historical trends. The Company reviews and refines these estimates on at least a quarterly basis. The Company's historical estimates of these costs have not differed materially from actual results. Retail store and concession-based shop-within-shop revenue is recognized net of estimated returns at the time of sale to consumers. E-commerce revenue from sales of products ordered through the Company's e-commerce sites is recognized upon delivery of the shipment to its customers. Such revenue is also reduced by an estimate of returns. Gift cards issued by the Company are recorded as a liability until they are redeemed, at which point revenue is recognized. The Company recognizes income for unredeemed gift cards when the likelihood of redemption by a customer is remote and the Company determines that it does not have a legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed gift card to the relevant jurisdiction as unclaimed or abandoned property. Revenue from licensing arrangements is recognized when earned in accordance with the terms of the underlying agreements, generally based upon the higher of (i) contractually guaranteed minimum royalty levels or (ii) actual sales and royalty data, or estimates thereof, received from the Company's licensees. The Company accounts for sales taxes and other related taxes on a net basis, excluding such taxes from revenue.
Shipping and Handling Costs	Shipping and Handling Costs The costs associated with shipping goods to customers are reflected as a component of selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in the consolidated statements of income. Shipping costs were approximately $13 million and $32 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 , respectively, and $13 million and $32 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 27, 2014 , respectively. The costs of preparing merchandise for sale, such as picking, packing, warehousing, and order charges ("handling costs") are also included in SG&A expenses. Handling costs were approximately $48 million and $133 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 26, 2015 , respectively, and $49 million and $136 million during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 27, 2014 , respectively. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in revenue.
Net Income Per Common Share	Net Income per Common Share Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Weighted-average common shares include shares of the Company's Class A and Class B common stock. Diluted net income per common share adjusts basic net income per common share for the dilutive effects of outstanding stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and any other potentially dilutive instruments, only in the periods in which such effects are dilutive under the treasury stock method. Options to purchase shares of the Company's Class A common stock at an exercise price greater than the average market price of the common stock during the reporting period are anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the computation of diluted net income per common share. In addition, the Company has outstanding RSUs that are issuable only upon the achievement of certain service and/or performance goals. Performance-based RSUs are included in the computation of diluted shares only to the extent that the underlying performance conditions (and any applicable market condition modifiers) (i) have been satisfied as of the end of the reporting period or (ii) would be considered satisfied if the end of the reporting period were the end of the related contingency period and the result would be dilutive under the treasury stock method.
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable In the normal course of business, the Company extends credit to wholesale customers that satisfy defined credit criteria. Accounts receivable is recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value, and is presented in the Company's consolidated balance sheets net of certain reserves and allowances. These reserves and allowances consist of (i) reserves for returns, discounts, end-of-season markdowns, operational chargebacks, and certain cooperative advertising allowances (see the Revenue Recognition section above for further discussion of related accounting policies) and (ii) allowances for doubtful accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of periodic aging of accounts receivable, assessments of collectability based on an evaluation of historical and anticipated trends, the financial condition of the Company's customers, and an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions, among other factors.
Derivative Financial Instruments	Derivative Financial Instruments The Company records all derivative financial instruments on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value. For derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, the effective portion of changes in their fair value is either (i) offset against the changes in fair value of the related hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or (ii) recognized in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") until the hedged item is recognized in earnings, depending on whether the derivative is being used to hedge against changes in fair value or cash flows and net investments, respectively. Each derivative instrument that qualifies for hedge accounting is expected to be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged. For each derivative instrument that is designated as a hedge, the Company formally documents the related risk management objective and strategy, including identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, and the risk exposure, as well as how hedge effectiveness will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively over the instrument's term. To assess hedge effectiveness, the Company generally uses regression analysis, a statistical method, to compare the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument to the change in fair value or cash flows of the related hedged item. The extent to which a hedging instrument has been and is expected to remain highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows is assessed and documented by the Company on at least a quarterly basis. As a result of its use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to such contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate this counterparty credit risk, the Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon an evaluation of their credit ratings and certain other factors, adhering to established limits for credit exposure. The Company's established policies and procedures for mitigating credit risk from derivative transactions include ongoing review and assessment of its counterparties' creditworthiness. The Company also enters into master netting arrangements with counterparties, when possible, to mitigate credit risk associated with its derivative instruments. In the event of default or termination (as such terms are defined within the respective master netting arrangement), these arrangements allow the Company to net-settle amounts payable and receivable related to multiple derivative transactions with the same counterparty. The master netting arrangements specify a number of events of default and termination, including, among others, the failure to make timely payments. The fair values of the Company's derivative instruments are recorded on its consolidated balance sheets on a gross basis. For cash flow reporting purposes, proceeds received or amounts paid upon the settlement of a derivative instrument are classified in the same manner as the related item being hedged, primarily within cash flows from operating activities. Cash Flow Hedges The Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce its risk related to exchange rate fluctuations on inventory transactions, intercompany royalty payments made by certain of its international operations, intercompany contributions made to fund certain marketing efforts of its international operations, and other foreign currency-denominated operational cash flows. To the extent forward foreign currency exchange contracts are designated as cash flow hedges and are highly effective in offsetting changes in the value of the hedged items, the related gains or losses are initially deferred in equity as a component of AOCI and are subsequently recognized in the consolidated statements of income as follows: • Forecasted Inventory Transactions — recognized as part of the cost of the inventory being hedged within cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold to a third party. • Intercompany Royalty Payments and Marketing Contributions — recognized within foreign currency gains (losses) generally in the period in which the related payments or contributions being hedged are received or paid. To the extent that a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is not considered effective, any change in its fair value relating to such ineffectiveness is immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). If it is determined that a derivative instrument has not been highly effective, and will continue not to be highly effective in hedging the designated exposure, hedge accounting is discontinued and further gains (losses) are immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). Upon discontinuance of hedge accounting, the cumulative change in fair value of the derivative instrument previously recorded in AOCI is recognized in earnings when the related hedged item affects earnings, consistent with the originally-documented hedging strategy, unless the forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring, in which case the accumulated amount is immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). Hedge of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation Changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument or the carrying value of a non-derivative instrument that is designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation are reported in the same manner as a translation adjustment, to the extent it is effective. In assessing the effectiveness of a derivative financial instrument that is designated as a hedge of a net investment, the Company uses a method based on changes in spot rates to measure the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes on both its foreign subsidiary net investment and the related hedging instrument. If the notional amount of the instrument designated as the hedge of a net investment is greater than the portion of the net investment being hedged, hedge ineffectiveness is recognized immediately in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses). To the extent the instrument remains effective, changes in its value are recorded in equity as foreign currency translation gains (losses), a component of AOCI, and are recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses) only upon the sale or liquidation of the hedged net investment. Fair Value Hedges Changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument that is designated as a fair value hedge, along with offsetting changes in the fair value of the related hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recorded in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness is recorded in earnings to the extent that the change in the fair value of the hedged item does not offset the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument. Undesignated Hedges All of the Company's undesignated hedges are entered into to hedge specific economic risks, particularly foreign currency exchange rate risk related to foreign currency-denominated balances. Changes in the fair value of undesignated derivative instruments are immediately recognized in earnings within foreign currency gains (losses).
