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.

[Author comment: This is another advert. from 1951 using "Ivy League" in reference to a coat's construction. See also the Horne's advert.]

The beginning of the beginning-and rather expensive for the time.
