It’s Fall Time in Prep Land!
The arrival of cool brisk air and changing foliage heralds a new season for preps. From Georgetown to Charles Street to Soho and beyond, preps take the seasonal shift in stride. Homecoming weekends at the Ivies and boarding schools, outdoor sporting events, semi-sober trips to the orchard for apple picking are the new social events to do. Preps trade in their seersucker and Lilly for denim and Barbour, Hunter Wellies, Burberry, and faux horseback riding gear. If you’re a prep, say in the NYC-metropolitan area, you know that fall will soon mean ‘the Hunt’. Though a horseracing event involving no hunting, you will be hard pressed to find a well-to-do prep not in their Barbour and Wellies, quaffing apple cider fortified with Apple Jack and eating a Dean & Deluca-catered tailgate, and passing prep school stories with old friends. Ask them why they’re there, and answers will undoubtedly be absent of the ‘horse’ word. So tally ho, prep spotters; go forth and pour yourself a hot toddy! Fall is here and preps are in their full autumnal splendor, much like the foliage.
