Bold Spring 1958 Sportswear Trends Hit Two Paths
The American Institute of Men’s and Boys’ Wear notes two distinct spring 1958 trends: bold Caribbean inspired and Ivy clad casual styles, united by washwear blends, three button featherweight jackets, slim cut slacks, and knitted shirts. White returns as a spring summer staple with varied color accents. Ivy worn crews favor button down polo models in plaids checks and stripes while others prefer silky textures bold prints and novelty fabrics.

Curling shirt collars past and present glow in spring styles
Men shift from curling collars to neater shirts with button-down, stay, pin and tab collars. The revival includes rounded pinned fronts and English-point styles without stays, with tab collars seen as the dressiest. Lightweight fabrics and softly colored shirtings, notably blue, gray, tan, and stone, remain popular.
