Bring on the Preppy Style
With their history dating back to the late 1800s, country clubs have been an integral part of America’s upper-class lifestyle. But that doesn’t mean the style has remained solely in high society and with the wealthy. Over the years, the fashion has evolved from Brook Brothers’ loafers to 1980’s The Official Preppy Handbook to the early aught’s Gossip Girl to today’s Challengers, while also infiltrating our home’s interiors.
