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.

Maybe not wholesome, but fun.

Interesting to see that by '57, they'd all moved to narrow ties, but still retained noticeably wider lapels -- perhaps simply a function of it being cheaper to buy new ties than new suits and sportcoats?

As for "wholesome," I don't think anybody's ever accused Cornellians of being incapable of deploying irony.
