About this product

Product Information

Described by The New York Times as, "a treasure of fashion insiders," Take Ivy was originally published in Japan in 1965, setting off an explosion of American-influenced "Ivy Style" fashion among students in the trendy Ginza shopping district of Tokyo. The product of four sartorial style enthusiasts, Take Ivy is a collection of candid photographs shot on the campuses of America's elite, Ivy League universities. The series focuses on men and their clothes, perfectly encapsulating the unique academic fashion of the era. Whether lounging in the quad, studying in the library, riding bikes, in class, or at the boathouse, the subjects of Take Ivy are impeccably and distinctively dressed in the finest American-made garments of the time. Take Ivy is now considered a definitive document of this particular style, and rare original copies are highly sought after by "trad" devotees worldwide. A small-run reprint came out in Japan in 2006 and sold out almost immediately. Now, for the first time ever, powerHouse is reviving this classic tome with an all-new English translation. Ivy style has never been more popular, in Japan or stateside, proving its timeless and transcendent appeal. Take Ivy has survived the decades and is an essential object for anyone interested in the history or future of fashion.

Reviews
"We at GQ have found endless inspiration in these pages, and designers have too." GQ "Time has done little to dim the allure of "Take Ivy," with its guileless snapshots of handsome, fit and presumably bright young lugs disporting themselves in dining halls, on the College Green at Dartmouth, along Nassau Street in Princeton and in Harvard Yard." New York Times "A fun addition to your shelf of sailing manuals and Kennedy biographies." Daily Candy, "We at GQ have found endless inspiration in these pages, and designers have too."

  • Thank goodness for this US reprint!

    The 2010 reprint adds greatly appreciated availability to this coveted title. This is a personal favorite and is guaranteed to maintain a place on my bookshelf for years to come. My fondness for the imagery develops with each revisit; the faces of these young Americans have become familiar and yet their style boasts endless small details to be appreciated. Though I would adore a vintage copy I am more than content with what I have.

  • its exactly as advertised
