Welcome to The Ivy League Look

This blog presents a historical view through articles, photographs, reminiscences, and advertisements, of an American style of men's fashion of the mid-20th century known as "The Ivy League Look" or "The Ivy Look."

This blog will not present modern-day iterations of this "look"; it will be shown in its original context as an American style worn during this specific era. Author commentary will be kept to a minimum.

I love the fact that you could get an Alden tassel in blue alligator. Lack of a cordovan option is interesting.

Very dissapointing that Southwick had a notch lapel tux.
