[quote=Anonymous]What exactly do you mean by preppy aesthetic? For the sake of the argument, I'm going to assume it's J Crew, Brooks, Polo, Patagonia, Vineyard Vines, Peter Millar, outdoorsy gear, Charles Tyrwhitt, Boden, Ann Taylor, and so forth. My view on it? It's clean, traditional classic lines, looks great on a wide range of people, people do look better and more self-assured and confident and presentable. While tastes are subjective, it remains that the "preppy look" of these brands is the default uniform of professional and successful America, aka the American upper middle and upper classes. And most people really can't be bothered to figure out how to look "creative" (which often means sloppy and ridiculous). [/quote]
