The revolt that redefined menswear. Black Ivy: A Revolt in Style — named one of the best books of 2021 by The Financial Times — charts a pivotal period in American history when Black men across the country claimed the wardrobe of a privileged elite and remade it as something entirely their own.
The book shows how a generation of the most avant-garde jazz musicians, visual artists, poets, architects, and philosophers took the classic Ivy Look and made it cool, edgy, and enduringly influential. Featured figures include Amiri Baraka, Charles White, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., James Baldwin, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and Sidney Poitier, alongside the wardrobe itself — the Oxford cloth button-down, hand-stitched loafer, soft-shoulder three-button jacket, and perennial repp tie — reframed by men challenging the status quo and fighting for civil rights.
Style, as an act of resistance.
