Looking for Comfortable Designer Office Fashion in Princeton? Max Mara Has it!
Summer in Princeton always brings with it tons of fresh new fashion. But when it comes to looking good, and keeping cool, at the office and at the same time, it can often seem nearly impossible. Max Mara Studio understands that, and that’s why they’ve created softly tailored clothing for women that is comfortable on even the hottest days, and will keep you looking sharp.
It’s the oh-so-breathable fabric that will keep you feeling breezy from the beginning of your work day until it’s time to punch out; and no lining to bunch up or make you too warm. The relaxed fit from waist to bottom hem also helps keep you feeling cooler. The V-neck in the blazer jackets provides more ventilation, and can look especially sharp with a simple solid tee or tank worn underneath.
You can find Max Mara in a variety of colors, from neutral to the boldest and brightest, as well as in different patterns and prints. And when you need to find that one that’s just right for you, you need to come see us at Nick Hilton so we can help!

Canali Makes a Splash in Princeton This Spring!
You need a new suit, but you don’t want to wear the same old boring two-piece that you’ve been wearing for the past decade. You need something fresh, something new. You need a statement suit. And that’s just what Canali is bringing to you this spring.
The suits themselves range in color, but you’ll find lighter greys, greens, and blues a common theme throughout this collection. Of course the design strays from this when you start getting into the ever-so-crisp white suits that are perfect for the season, and super trendy with pin stripes throughout and slim-fitting tapered trousers. Small cuffs along the pant hems are a must, appearing on just about every piece; and sharp seams running down the center of the leg are the perfect finishing touch.
Prints, patterns and colors aside, you can’t deny that these suits are some of the finest quality you can find. Fully canvassed so that the suit always falls just right and works with you not against you with movement, each piece is still hand-tailored and made in Italy. This designer knows this is the only way to give each suit the attention it needs, to bring you the very finest – and this year, the freshest – suits in your wardrobe.
When you need a new suit, and you want something other than all those other two and three-pieces, come see us at Nick Hilton. We have the latest styles that will give your wardrobe that pop you’re looking for.
Max Mara Studio brings Simple Elegance to Princeton This Spring
The weather is warming up, you’re getting ready to enjoy outdoor lunches and events once again, and you want a look that doesn’t need too much fussing, but still keeps you fabulous. You need Max Mara Studio.
Some of the most popular Max Mara pieces this spring are the zebra-print collarless jacket over a dress in black jersey. The distinctive print and three-quarter length sleeves, and the expert fitting body all give this piece a modern look while still keeping it classic and sophisticated.
Another great piece that comes from this Studio this spring is their black three-quarter sleeve jacket paired with the line checked skirt. This look boasts of spring, with the fun pattern on the skirt, but is also quietly understated and perfect for wearing to the office, the farmer’s market, or to a dinner party. The fitted jacket is kept simple in basic black, but again the three-quarter length sleeves give it a unique look, and the narrow slits of pockets add the perfect finishing detail. Pair a scooped tank or tee underneath, and this is just the thing no matter where you’re stepping out to.

Myth Busters 1 – Trouser Cuffs
Let’s talk about cuffs a minute, shall we? Somebody somewhere started a rumor that if your pants had no pleats, they should have no cuffs. Other than the “No… No…” part, there isn’t much logic to this. Just one of those bits of mythological quackery that suffuse the art and science of men’s clothing.
Trouser cuffs came into being as a practical matter. The turned-up cloth at the bottom of the pant leg is more wear-proof and can be re-folded to make repairing this most vulnerable part of one’s pants easier (and less costly.) I’d say this might have been thought of more in the early 19th century, or whenever it was that the Duke of Wellington started the modern trouser trend by dropping his drawers from knicker-length to the floor; but these days it would be rare to find a worn-out cuff – or a man who could be bothered to go to a tailor to have his cuffs turned. Even frugality has limits.
It’s a fashion thing, finally. And though cuffs might once have been a feature of slacks that were worn in rugged places, over time they have become a distinguishing feature of dressy pants. They give more weight to the bottom and help the pant leg fall over the shoes with more of a graceful fold. Whereas plain-bottoms seem more fitting for khakis, or chinos or other rugged, sportswear-style trousers.
And that’s the way it is now: Levels 1, 2: No cuffs. 3 and up? Turn ’em up!
