Described by The New York Times as, "a treasure of fashion insiders," Take Ivy was originally published in Japan in 1965, setting off an explosion of American-influenced "Ivy Style" fashion among students in the trendy Ginza shopping district of Tokyo.

The product of four sartorial style enthusiasts, Take Ivy is a collection of candid photographs shot on the campuses of America's elite, Ivy League universities. The series focuses on men and their clothes, perfectly encapsulating the unique academic fashion of the era. Whether lounging in the quad, studying in the library, riding bikes, in class, or at the boathouse, the subjects of Take Ivy are impeccably and distinctively dressed in the finest American-made garments of the time.

Take Ivy is now considered a definitive document of this particular style, and rare original copies are highly sought after by "trad" devotees worldwide. A small-run reprint came out in Japan in 2006 and sold out almost immediately. Now, for the first time ever, powerHouse is reviving this classic tome with an all-new English translation. Ivy style has never been more popular, in Japan or stateside, proving its timeless and transcendent appeal. Take Ivy has survived the decades and is an essential object for anyone interested in the history or future of fashion.

About the Author
Teruyoshi Hayashida was born in the fashionable Aoyama District of Tokyo, where he also grew up. He began shooting cover images for Men's Club magazine after the title's launch. Very sophisticated in style and a connoisseur of gourmet food, he is known for his homemade, soy-sauce-marinated Japanese pepper (sansho), and his love of gunnel tempura and Riesling wine.

Shosuke Ishizu is the representative director of Ishizu Office. Originally born in Okayama Prefecture, after graduating from Kuwasawa Design School he worked in the editorial division at Men's Club until 1960 when he joined VAN Jacket Inc. He established Ishizu Office in 1983, and now produces several brands including Niblick.

Toshiyuki Kurosu was raised in Tokyo. He joined VAN Jacket Inc. in 1961, where he was responsible for the development of merchandise and sales promotion. He left the company in 1970 and started his own business, Cross and Simon. After the dissolution of his brand, he began appearing on the legendary variety show Asayan on TV Tokyo as a regular and soon gained popularity. He is also an active writer and intellectual.

Hajime (Paul) Hasegawa is from Hyogo Prefecture. After studying in the U.S., Hasegawa returned to Japan in 1963 to join VAN Jacket Inc. At VAN, he was responsible for advertising and PR. For the production of Take Ivy, Hasegawa was the main coordinator and interpreter on the ground.

Super fun, easy to use, and beautiful!
Color: Sparkling Pink
Love it! I can’t stop thinking of excuses to wear it just in my day-to-day life because I love how it looks so much. I put it on my cheekbones, nose, and collarbones, and I also put it on over my eyes like an eyeshadow and it worked really well for that too. It’s super easy to use and intuitive, you just roll it on. It didn’t bother my skin either, which some glitters do because I have sensitive skin. Comes off easily with water and a washcloth, although some of it hangs around and you have to take it off with makeup remover, but that’s no problem for me honestly. It does rub off a bit, so be prepared for whatever you wear with it to get a little glittery. Great product, recommend!

Great little roll-on stick, used it for stocking stuffers
Color: Dazzle
Love this roll-on sparkle glitter stick! Perfect for skin. If you need a hint of sparkle on your cheeks, even in your hair, the colors here are beautiful. This would be great for Halloween, parties, even get appropriate color for a formal celebration like a wedding. It is easy to apply, and lasts a long time.

Cute, Small, but pack the perfect Glitter Punch!
Color: Sparkling Pink
Amazing! I bought the Iridescent shade. It's a small bottle but for the price & how long the product will last, it's totally a steal! The liquid doesn't have an odir at all, rolls on smooth, not chunky. I tried it on my dark hair it was great. Also quick dry in skin with no rub off after it's COMPLETELY DRY. Rolling extra layers def makes it shinier too.

Amazing!
Color: Mermaid
I bought this for my musical Seussical and for everyday use. I was very impressed by the quality it was so easy to put on and it washed right off. This is the perfect glitter! I tested it on my arm face and hair it and my 2 only problems are that the color is not what it looks in the picture I got the mermaid color thinking it would have more pink but it does not have much pink in it when you put it on it appears more blue and green. The other thing is for those who got this for their hair be ware the glitter will fall off I didn’t get to give it a great chance on my hair but I think it’s not terrible you just need to give it more time to dry than I did or whenever you move you’re head glitter will come off. Overall I think this is an amazing product and I am definitely considering trying other colors.
