Ivy-Inspired, 1964
Seersucker, madras, linen - three of the big summer looks in men's sportswear: (l. to r.) Novel seersucker plaid with red Haggar slacks; Cricketeer's multi-colored traditional jacket in Dacron and wool and Champion gold slacks; and Gordon-Ford's linen jacket in red and off-white stripes with red slacks by Corbin.

Nice post!
Seersuccer and madras forever!
I wonder how come men, young or old, rarely, if ever, wear them.
