Progress



“Know, first, who you are, and then adorn yourself accordingly.” - Epictetus

A well-rounded person is what we should all strive to be; well-educated, well-spoken of, and well-mannered. If all aspects of an individual's characteristic, whether it be social or personal, defines his or her own path to success, proper appearance should and justly be equally regarded. Simply put, dress in the manner that you would like to be addressed. "Punk", "business type", "gangsta", "hipster", "rich boy", "trustafarian", etc;. -choose your label. But what label of dress defines the well-rounded man? The Black Ivy presents to us a rendition of how the well-educated and cultured man should appear. Although some pieces may seem a bit ostentatious, I believe this is a step in the right direction and "cut-and-sew" brands take note, educated is the new 'gangsta'. -Ricky
