Fashion show looks from the Nicole Miller Spring 2014 Collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York.
Nicole Miller (born 1952) is an American fashion designer, businesswoman who was born in Texas and raised in Lenox, Massachusetts.
Miller attended the Rhode Island School of Design where she earned a BFA in Apparel Design.
She studied for a year at L’Ecole de la Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne where she was trained to drape fabric and study the classical techniques of couture. Miller described her Parisian training as “intense,” but explained that it gave her training in fabric manipulation, which became a signature of her designs.
Of her style, the designer has said: “I’ve always been downtown and uptown. I’ve had a lot of artist friends and I was always a little bit of a renegade.” Her modern design aesthetic is known for its bright prints and patterns.
