nicole-miller_fw09dlr_nicole_miller_347_mediumWomen rely on Nicole Miller each season for her solid offering of sexy, easy-to-wear evening looks, and she stays true to form for fall. Her lacquered frocks with a strong shoulder (already a focus for next fall) are an effortless option for a night out on the town. The Gist: Miller is another designer embracing a strong, lean silhouette for fall in shiny, shimmery fabrics. Dresses rule the runway, from solid numbers accented with origami folds, pin-tucking, or ruching, to a geometric print section that comes belted or draped. Biker jackets and fur collars finish off both day and evening looks.
