Take a deep dive into preppy culture with this stunning lookbook and history of the iconic style.

Preppy is a look, a vibe, and a lifestyle. From its inception as the fashion of Ivy League students to Japanese hipsters to Black jazz musicians, up to the now modern-day basics everyone should have in their closet, the preppy style is one that refuses to become just another trendy moment. Featuring gorgeous illustrations, Preppy Style traces the evolution of a fashion trend that continues to withstand the test of time.

Written by fashion expert Rosalyn Gomersall, this beautifully illustrated and stylized book is your time capsule to preppy fashion. Explore the attitudes and cultural impact of preppy life and also learn the designs, fabrics, and items of clothing that convey that preppy look. This book also:

  • Captures classic prepster moments in pop culture
  • Dives into the brands of Ralph Lauren, J.Crew, and Tommy Hilfiger
  • Lists the foundational preppy clothing items from the classic boat shoes to today's tennis skirt
  • Showcases how the preppy aesthetic started within Ivy League, WASP family circles and became staples in everyone's wardrobe

Perfect for fashionistas, design junkies, and pop culture enthusiasts, Preppy Style is a fascinating and visually captivating exploration of one of the most enduring styles in history.
