English term or phrase: here: Prep (but not preparatory)

Title A: POP PREP
Title B: MODERN PREP

Es handelt sich um zwei Pressemeldungen eines Modedesigners, in denen es von diesem Wörtchen nur so wimmelt. Und ich kenne es nur als Abkürzung für die "Prep school". Leider kann ich hier nicht alles posten, denn der Inhalt ist vertraulich.

Aber hier ein paar Beispielsätze:
- His Spring 2012 collection is inspired by the fusion of preppy and pop art
- Iconic American essentials are infused with the XXX hallmark of optimism and vibrancy, while the swing of the 60s lends an effortless charm to a new prep attitude.
- a Technicolor interpretation of the prep classics XXX is known for.
- Prep classics are modernized through saturated colors and energized patterns.
- Iconic, American shapes are updated in contemporary fabrics and execution for a modern interpretation of prep

Please help!
