And good to remember that these kids were just going to college. Any college. Not just the Ivies.

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.

Some interesting discussion on this thread regarding US influence on 60s UK style and some great pics of Yardbirds, Stones etc. I wonder if the American influence was mainly a London thing and to what extent was it picked up elsewhere? In the 1950s Liverpool sailors adopted the look:

Any other examples of provincial UK Ivy?

Cheers,

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.

FANTASTIC & totally Modernist!

Style and music coming into Liverpool FIRST, THEN Manchester via the Manchester ship canal (somehow).

I know of one Merchant Seaman from the South with the same story ( I worked with his wife way back when in Teddington), but always though that I was being spun a yarn. Liverpool to New York was THE route for this stuff, not London quite so much at first.

Another story is when the Rolling Stones walked into the Twisted Wheel club in Manchester the DJ played all the R'n'B originals they'd covered on their first LP which were all 'Northern' hits (But pre-'Northern Soul', of course) to show them that Manchester was not impressed by the boys.

Maybe that's just a story.

Great link & Paul Gambaccini again!

Top man, TBW!

Thanks Terry. I believe the DJ at the Twisted Wheel was Roger Eagle, who played the originals in exactly the same order as the covers on The Stones' LP.

This is why Abercrombie & Fitch for girls works & A&F for boys does not.

... Maybe.

Extremely stylish look for Hamilton. But most young men at that time would not have worn the spread collar shirt (button-down instead) or used the pocket square.

Regards,

Steven

Now there's a shirt collar to fox the 'Orthodoxers'.
Nice find.
One in yer eye 'Trads'!

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.

I am intrigued by the shoulder seam on Hamilton's sport jacket.
It reminds me of the small photo posted on J Simon's website.

The partially buttoned cardigan is fun, too.
