Re: Ivy Aspirations -

There ares some wonderful Jack Lemmon images on Getty, particularly those of him sitting in a London hotel bar around '55 or '56: olive poplin suit, white pinned club collar, dark knit tie and PTBs. Doesn't get any better than that.

Re: Ivy Aspirations -

I'm in full agreement with all of these. Good to see Lemmon gettin' some respect. Peter Cook is always a big inspiration for me, as is George Peppard.

I love how Paul Newman looked in the Verdict, underrated movie...

Great style in Trading Places. I view the clothes in this movie in a similar way to Animal House. In that movie it was a late 70s take on early 60s ivy. Trading Places is a early 80s spoof on preppie, but I still love it nonetheless:

Re: Ivy Aspirations -

Nice pics, Tom--Redford in Dot C is a big reference point for me.

Jim--that way madness lies.

From the Trip Down South blog:

an excellent photo essay on the truly execrable 80s "comedy" Making the Grade, which features a mouth-watering explosion of preppy (sorry J, it is) sartorial insanity.  I really like a lot of this.  We rented this in high school repeatedly ("auto shop teacha?") and def took notes.  Sad.

http://atripdownsouth.blogspot.com/2008/11/making-grade.html

Also terrible, also full of great looks:  Private School, starring Matthew Modine and the object of my ongoing, 20-something year erotic obsession, Phoebe Cates:
