A few images and details from New Release 'Black Ivy: A Revolt in Style,' edited with text by Jason Jules, art directed and designed by Graham Marsh and published by @reelartpress From the most avant-garde jazz musicians, visual artists and poets to architects, philosophers and writers, 'Black Ivy: A Revolt in Style' charts a period in American history when Black men across the country adopted the clothing of a privileged elite and made it their own. It shows how a generation of men took the classic Ivy Look and made it cool, edgy and unpredictable in ways that continue to influence today's modern menswear. Pictured here: 1.
