I was truly surprised to see "Ivy" used alongside "Ivy League" in 1959. I was in college in the early 60s, and I could've sworn that we only used "Ivy League" (and not "Ivy") to describe the look and the clothing. Perhaps I was wrong, perhaps not. Maybe it was just an advertising copywriter's innovation in 1959 that later took hold.
