This “Ivy” or “preppy” style was an amalgam of conformism and rebellion that reflected a larger search for new personal freedom. The reactions to this style in Japan as well as the US illuminate the wider resonance of Einstein’s ambivalence about acceding to social norms that went against his own needs.

This occurred although none of its employees had ever expressed—at least, in writing—expertise or even interest in the subject beforehand.
