    Then there was the Black Ivy project....designed as a sartorial "tribute to the first black colleges that paved the way for our generation and created a common ground for hardworking, likeminded individuals." Below is a related video: http://vimeo.com/15176543

    (Repro.) Men's Vintage Collegiate Fashion/Benjamin Bixby Menswear

    I must admit I am fan of men dressed in collegiate fashion from the 20s and 30s (a la Harold Lloyd in The Freshman, for example). Knitted ties, shawl collared- and letter sweaters, oh my! As an ebay seller I have discovered early sweaters and jerseys are very covetable (seems like sports bars...

    Electro-Swing or: How I Learned to Stop Complaining and Love Modernity

    I know this has been discussed in other threads, but I can't wait to see what happens when Baz Luhrmann's Great Gatsby comes out. Not only do I anticipate a hip-hop and electro-swing soundtrack, but the clothing photos I've seen suggest the fashions will be a 2012 version of 20s fashion filtered...

    Electro-Swing or: How I Learned to Stop Complaining and Love Modernity

    Thanks for the message. I was questioning the posting of the 1930 music in the Electroswing thread, not the forum :). Why CAN'T we talk about vintage-inspired things on the Fedora Lounge? I know that it isn't the "real mccoy," but, again, speaking as someone who dabbles in swing dance and who...

    Electro-Swing or: How I Learned to Stop Complaining and Love Modernity

    Thanks for this! I'm sort of on both sides in a way. I enjoy straight up vintage music and happily discuss it in relevant threads, and I also enjoy Electro-swing in certain moods. The same is with vintage vs. vintage-inspired fashion. I appreciate that FL concedes room for inclusion of...

    Electro-Swing or: How I Learned to Stop Complaining and Love Modernity

    Electroswing is interpreted in various different ways, depending on the band and the song. Some are more electro- and some are more 'swing.' Caravan Swing, which I've linked to below, includes some great Django Reinhardt 'gyspy' jazz samples and so forth. While musical purists may not love...

    Sarah Slean

    I suppose I could have posted about Sarah Slean in the thread about vintage-inspired videos, but since she has at least three vids that fit into the category, I thought perhaps this Canadian songstress deserved her own thread. Love her!! http://youtu.be/Q7p0TQeRTw4
