Nicole Miller Makes Wishes Come True

We love Nicole Miller!! She has always been one of our favorite fashion designers at Fashion Week, and every woman looks amazing in her clothes. She is one of the best designers in the fashion industry today. We were so impressed to hear about Nicole's latest endeavor -- Nicole hosted an exclusive cocktail party and evening of in-store shopping to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Florida at her Collins Avenue Boutique during Art Basel in Miami.

There is not a whole lot of philanthropy going on at Art Basel. Basel can feel very prententious at times, so it is thrilling to hear that there is actually someone creating a great art event that actually gives back, especially to a great cause.
A percentage of the evening’s profits will be donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Florida to grant wishes to children with life threatening medical conditions -- to date the foundation has granted 7000 wishes.
Guests attending the event were given the opportunity to participate in live and silent auctions with many outstanding items, including a trip to New York City to attend Nicole’s February fashion show at Lincoln Center during NY Fashion Week.
The event featured four renowned artists -- Romero Britto, Noel, Ronnie Greenspan and Purvis Young.
