... and did Sullivan really wear a four button suit in 1956?
I've heard that J Press did them, but I didn't know about Brooks...
Also funny that one of the other Ivy makers thought that Brooks had "repressed their lapels" in order to achieve a wider lapel than the Ivy competitors...
"We've never pressed our lapels".

^That's an M-43/42 style jacket, ideal for spring/autumn adventure.
the small short button down collar, as mentioned in the Playboy '63 shirt guide...
Doesn't get me as excited as the wider full collar with its smooth bell shaped roll, the full Ivy roll, ideally unfused and very soft....
but for a Madras shirt...
And it's part of the Boom Years story...
Craig Stevens was the American Cary Grant to me.
