Rugby Culture: MFIT’s Ivy Style Exhibition

Culture

Scan from T. Hayashida's photo book Take Ivy

Mark your 2012 calendars. The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology (MFIT) is planning to launch an exhibition on the Ivy League look, which they say will feature the clothing styles worn on the campuses of America’s Ivy League universities from the early 20th century to the 1960s. Legendary menswear historian Bruce Boyer and Ivy-Style.com’s Christian Chensvold will be advisors to the project, and it sounds like a comprehensive exhibition catalogue is in the works as well — meaning we Americans can finally get our own version of Take Ivy.

Huh? Take Ivy is on amazon.com for release end of August 2010. That is a mere 4 months away! www.Disneyrollergirl.blogspot.com

It is fantastic to see such a strong desire happening again for good books in print.

Everyone is in luck powerHouse Books is publishing the English-language edition of Take Ivy in September 2011 so no one need wail until 2012. And look at that price! See for yourself httpwww.powerhousebooks.combook1166

Wow. Great but we have to wait all the way until 2012. Both of the final Harry Potter films will be out by then @RugbyFan The MFIT is probably in the same place as the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC on Seventh ave.

As if I needed another reason to return to the City. And I would kill for a copy of Take Ivy.
