Vintage Dandy

We love this photo. 20 dapper guys in a field with a sign saying "Dinner Is Ready"? So random. What's the story?

Ivy League Dandy: Princeton University 1949

This is the Tigertones, a Princeton University glee club from the 1949 yearbook. We recently heard from a customer who is a college student and a fraternity member. He writes "we are known around campus as the "southern" fraternity because we wear bow ties and power ties for all occasions." We were thrilled to receive his email and loved the idea that the Ivy League dandy is perhaps still alive and well. So it got us thinking. Are there indeed fraternities known as being more dapper than others? Are you a member? If so, please send us your photos!

While looking through the photos from our friend Nik Bartram we came across his album for the 2009 Chap Olympics, an event for The Chap Magazine. I say, well done sir!
