Norman Hilton S/S 2011?

[Preparatory]

I loved their sport coats for the last season but what about Summer/Spring? Any words out yet? I've looked around but without any luck.

I thought they went out of business many years ago. Are they back?

Last year Nick Hilton decided to release 6 sport coats modeled on his father's best jackets - natural shoulders, sack cut, etc. (Hampton model, IIRC) Unfortunately, the jackets were only sold through Nick's shop in Princeton so didn't get a lot of press until recently when Christian Chensvold of Ivy-Style.com and a photographer put together the Look Book referenced above (and a new website: www.normanhilton.com). Nick is releasing five new jackets for his spring/summer 2011 collection that should be available through some of the nicer independent men's clothiers - think Ben Silver.

According to what Hilton told Chensvold, the five new 3/2 sack jackets for s/s 2011 are: Tussah (raw Indian) silk in navy and natural, a silk/linen herringbone, a tan linen and a navy worsted hopsack.

Thanks. I had a Nick Hilton suit many years ago and it was on par with HF but not as nice as Oxxford. I think it was worth its price.
