Take Ivy

2008/11/19

In 1968 Japanese photographer travelled America in search of "preppy" style. His efforts bear fruit - "Take Ivy", album filled with great photos of ivy league schools habitants. If this photos could sing, we wouldn't be surprised to hear "Baby can I follow you down" by Bob Dylan. Despite the atmosphere, book is simply great portrait of fashion at that times. The most surprising thing, is that most of those clothes and combinations hasn't changed for all those years. Maybe some, but in general classic preppy style passed test period lasting 30 years. Not many contemporary styles could challenge that.
