The Nicole Miller Resort 2011 collection dug up every shade of army green known to humankind. The casual military collection included cargo jackets, relaxed cargo dresses, updated army pants and an ultra-feminine pant with exaggerated ruched hips.
The Nicole Miller Resort 2011 kept it simple in terms of the color palette and the shapes--which makes for a highly wearable (and covetable) collection.
Implications - Military themes have always made quite a statement in fashion even though they were created for more practical purposes. The style has always brought a bit of an alternative edge to those who were immersed in alternative culture. Since then, brands such as Bape have incorporated its green, camo-themed colors to outfits and accessories that have an urban edge to them. The color palette continues to be an interest to the fashion industry looking for sources of inspiration in all sorts of life to bring something new to consumers.
