Etymology
The term 'preppy' originated in the 1970s and is derived from 'preparatory school,' a type of private school that prepares students for college. The preppy style was popularized by affluent young Americans associated with Ivy League institutions, who adopted a clean-cut and polished appearance. Over time, the term evolved, and variations like 'preppier' emerged to describe the degree to which one's style aligns with this classic fashion aesthetic. This style often celebrates tradition and a sense of belonging to a particular social class, connecting to the larger cultural narratives of status and education in America.
