my dad's side of the family is as southern as it gets, farmers from alabama while my mom's side are all still in Ireland so i see both sides of the spectrum... both extremes lol.
I could not imagine nor have i ever seen anyone in my family wearing bow ties with crabs or marlins on them (southern proper, southern tide, vineyard vines etc) or blue, green, pink shorts that a "frat boy" would be wearing.
I'm not making a statement about not liking it, because i wear that kind of stuff. But to say there is no trend in the style of dress is ignorant, people in the 1920's - 1940's were not wearing stuff like this.
get over it, its not all tradition. The only tradition i can see in this is the fact that your grandad might have worn polo, but their line has definately changed from then to now. The only thing probably identical in style is the classic khaki's and a blazer or a plain old suit.
Their is definatley some essence of fad in some of the dress of a fraternity man.
