The Museum at FIT, which has been holding the special exhibition on Ivy Style, is having a symposium on the same subject November 8th and 9th. The list of scheduled speakers is impressive. Included are menswear authors Bruce Boyer, Daniel Cappello, Jeffery Banks, and Doria de La Chapelle; bloggers John Tinseth of The Trad, Dusty Grainger of Maxminimus, and Clark Aldrich of The Daily Prep; industry folks such as Richard Press, Paul Winston, and Michael Bastian; and finally a bunch of academics who have written on the subject of men’s dress. The presentations and subsequent conversations here are sure to be worthwhile.
If you’re interested, you can read more about the symposium here. The deadline for pre-registration is October 26th. Tickets aren’t cheap ($100 for both days to the general public), but students get in free with proper ID.
