RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Nicole Miller Fall 2009

Edited by Kirby Marzec

Nicole Miller’s Fall 2009 collection had me feeling a little like Natalie Imbruglia. Torn. With the structural trend in mind, Miller brought several architectural cocktail dresses, jackets, skirts and tops to the runways. Embellished beautifully with geometric lines, patterned sequins, tiers, pleats and zippers, Miller added sophisticated edge to her wide repertoire of design. Aside from the closing piece (pictured above) I was not a fan of the fascia spider-web designs. Sadly enough, the design reminded me of something Diane Von Furstenberg would do. Oh, and I don’t care if it’s big for the fall, that royal blue color has got to go.
