Preppy style codes

Preppy style is synonymous with a subtle blend of classic and casual, inspired by the aesthetic of private colleges on the American East Coast. Iconic pieces of this look include polo shirts, Oxford shirts, knit sweaters, cardigans, blazers, chino pants and pleated skirts. Opt for bright colors and classic patterns such as stripes, checks or florals.

How to adopt the preppy style with elegance

  1. Vestiaire Essentials: Invest in timeless, quality pieces such as cotton pique polo shirts, cashmere sweaters and well-cut blazers. These basics will form the foundation of your preppy wardrobe. 
  2. Play with layering: Layering is the key to preppy style. Pair a polo shirt under a V-neck sweater or a cardigan over an Oxford shirt for a look that's both chic and casual. 
  3. Accessorize with care: Accessories are essential to perfect your preppy look. Opt for leather belts, loafers, boat shoes, baseball caps and classic sunglasses to complete your outfit in style. Succumb to PPMC's gingham fabric accessories to accessorize your outfits to perfection. 
  4. Dare to Detail: Details make all the difference in preppy style. Add a touch of color with bright socks or matching scarves. Don't be afraid to experiment with patterns and textures to bring variety to your outfits.
