I have always been a fan of school uniforms as I feel they instill feelings of belonging to a community and school pride. While as far as I can tell, Deerfield Academy does not have a uniform per se, the dress code mentioned by some of the students in the video makes for a more homogeneous look. The Prep look, which is indigenous to, well, Prep Schools is a non provocative, put together appearance. The Prep does not wear Abercrombie or Hollister, which I am always amazed to hear some people call preppy! The Prep boy or girl wears Lilly Pulitzer, Ralph Lauren, Vineyard Vines, Lacoste, and other similar brands. They like prints such as Seersucker, Plaid, Argyle, and Madras and most often do not shy away from wearing what most people call go-to-hell colours.
I Invite you to watch the following video and notice some of the Prep elements of clothing, which are as close to the source of Prep as they can be. We can even notice the Jacket, Shirt, Tie and Shorts look that has been creeping up on the different runways of the world.
