Fashion Week: Nicole Miller

The light layers and silky satin and gauze-like fabrics, in shades of bone and gray, seemed to float down the runway of Nicole Miller's spring 2011 collection. Of course, there were still some iconic black Nicole Miller pieces, despite diaphanous styles that made up the majority of the show. We just wish there was more of Nicole's signature figure flattering ensembles.
