fyi | Take Ivy Interviews

Before I post Fall Bags part deux, an interview worth mentioning: Racked tracked down on of the blond-blue-eyed prepsters from Teruyoshi Hayashida iconic 1965 publication "Take Ivy." Combining my love for prep, history, and good ole' Ivy League elitism, the interview below with Ed Heald, Dartmouth '68, showcases his take on 1960's style.

When we moved to Ohio, Hudson had one of the best high schools in the state—and an ultra-prep environment, with bouffant hairstyles, Princeton cut button-down shirts, and penny loafers. It was the standard attire for guys out there, so going from high school in Ohio to Dartmouth, where prep style was very much the norm on campus, I had very little culture and fashion shock.

Heald's in the 1968 sweater. Definitely worth a look.

Take Ivy's also being republished by powerHouse Books and is being released on August 31, 2010.
