Tuesday, 27 May 2014
by Spencer Parts
The Kickstarter campaign for WICK, the “no-stress black dress” created by Liz Lian ’15, will go live this week. WICK, a clothing line created last year by Lian and Sanibel Chai of UPenn, is designed with the collegiate party scene in mind – the dresses, skirts, and tops have pockets and are made of fabric

Lawnparties Fashion 2012
Wednesday, 09 May 2012
by Louise Connelly
Lawnparties is an excuse for Princetonians to break out their preppiest possessions and drink champagne to live music on the lawns of mansions, fulfilling every stereotype the University has to offer. Ladies this year rivaled the classiest of Kentucky Derby attendees with bright dresses and oversized hats, and the men, outside the realms of TI’s “sun’s

Crashing A Ralph Lauren Shoot
Thursday, 03 May 2012
by Louise Connelly
Walking around campus today you might have spotted some particularly well-dressed young men and women standing around some particularly vintage vehicles. Though the models may have been noticeably more attractive than the average Princetonian, the clothes did not seem entirely out of place, something the directors must have reckoned when choosing our gorgeous campus as
Brooks Brothers Hits Nassau
Wednesday, 07 March 2012
by Lauren Zumbach
Apparently the U Store’s selection of Princeton-themed Brooks Brothers sweaters and ties wasn’t enough to fill our insatiable, stereotype-fulfilling demand for all things preppy. Coming soon to Palmer Square: an entire Brooks Brothers store, scheduled to open September 1st – just in time for Lawnparties. (Coincidence? I think not.) Of course, given Princeton’s sartorial reputation,

Still working on the perfect look for formals? Computer science students Daniel Chyan ’14, Angela Dai ’13, Tiantian Zha ’13 and Amy Zhou ’13 might be able to offer some advice. They took first place at the Facebook Camp Hackathon last weekend, beating teams that qualified at earlier competitions throughout the country. Their creation? Color

IN PRINT: Students launch activist apparel line
Monday, 04 April 2011
by Shirley Gao
Designing a clothing line? It’s been done before. Designing t-shirts to raise awareness about under-the-radar social issues? Now that could start a revolution. At least, that’s the idea 22-year-old Ben Kung ’10 had in mind when he founded Re-Verb Apparel, a company that donates its profits to support philanthropic efforts around the world. “We don’t
“Summer Internship Interviews” is Code for “Go Shopping Right Now”
Monday, 07 February 2011
by Alice Su
So I was browsing through the U-Store today, wondering why everyone was outfitted in business attire. The click of high heels clacking around the hummus (yes, still Sabra) display, range of ties displayed by various dudes standing in line, and stream of blazer-clad people gingerly picking their way through the snow outside all struck me

Press Club Style Guide: So you missed Lawnparties?
Sunday, 19 September 2010
by Angela Wu
That’s OK. Since the whole point is really to see and be seen (Though I think we can agree that this year was unusually successful on the music side of things), we’ve got photos of some of the best-dressed (or just the preppiest) revelers. Click for larger images.
Princeton’s Next Top Model Speaks!
Tuesday, 14 September 2010
by David Walter
If you were following our blog these past few months, you know that The Amazing Race isn’t the only reality series with a Princeton connection this fall. This season (or, as the show’s creator/judge/host/resident eccentric Tyra Banks insists on calling it, “cycle”) of America’s Next Top Model features junior Jane Randall among its bevy of

by Angela Wu
Editor’s Note: For full Jane Randall coverage, check out our archive here. This fall will be all about reality TV for Princeton students–before CDY and Jonathan Schwartz ’10 even make their Amazing Race appearance (Sept. 26 on CBS). Cycle 15 of America’s Next Top Model begins next month (Sept. 8 on the CW) with Jane
Spotted: Lilly Pulitzer at the C-Store

Lilly Pulitzer has collaborated with, um, animal crackers? to bring you the cutest animal cracker box ever! StyleList says: “Rather than the classic red circus-train design, the rectangular boxes are illustrated with a menagerie of animals. It’s a distinctively Lilly look, with a breezy, sketchy style and a bright pink, green and yellow palette.” Appropriate:

Ever wonder what Princeton would look like in a German infomercial? We hadn’t either. That is, until we saw this video, which refashions Princeton as a German clothing store:
