College Man Has 'Own Look', 1968

(click to enlarge)

"Looking good is a matter of choice. Traditional three-button vested and Ivy? Fine, but dig those glen plaids, the black and white houndstooth checks and the wider stripes. Not only are colors new and fresh, there's also shape - the biggest idea to hit men's wear since the double-breasted look was revived."

  1. Very disturbing to read that the degeneration of the sack suit (what the writer calls "shape"--the narrowed waist) began 41 years ago!
