“It’s as impossible to imagine Brooks Brothers without New York as it is to imagine New York without Brooks Brothers. This great center of business, hub of !nance, and headquarters of some of the world’s most powerful and prominent publishing and media institutions is the birthplace, through Brooks Brothers, of countless style trends such as the “Ivy League Look” of the 1950s, and is the center of the life of a social aristocracy for whom Brooks Brothers was, and is, the source of both the cutting edge and the classic.”
