Think varsity jackets with luxe
updates, iced-out
monograms, bow ties or slim fit ties, colorful socks,
diced sweaters, fitted suits and deconstructed plaids.
The term preppy derives from the expensive
pre-college preparatory or prep schools that
upper- middle-class children
on the United States’s
Northeastern states sometimes attend. The
usage of
preppy in American high schools is quite often used to
refer to a
fashion choice, rather than the preppy lifestyle
associated with
upper-class East Coast preps.
Prep in American high schools, simply refers
to those who
dress preppy. Preppy
fashion started in the late 1940s and
1950s and is still
an embraced style nowadays with brands
like J. Press, J. Crew, Brooks Brothers and
Ralph Lauren
representing it.
In the beginning Preppy Style was all about
argyle sweaters, chinos, madras,
Nantucket Reds,
button down Oxford cloth shirts, polo shirts and boat
shoes.
These are still the main distinctive features these
days,
but fashion has evolved a lot over time so prep style got
“altered” too and you can find
your own preppy
style
