The four models take their cue from Nicole Miller’s Celtic theme, a theme which plays an important role in the Nicole Miller collection, and is a theme that is turned to for inspiration in the jewelry collection and in subtle elements on Nicole Miller’s accessory collections. The Celtic theme was an early obsession and appears as a signature detail on Nicole Miller’s fragrance, a bottle marked by its stunning elegance. Celtic elements are woven in the temple of the eyewear, from a subtle Celtic cross to a modern interpretation of the ancient symbol.
Broad
Three raised metal Celtic crosses in descending size are a modern interpretation of an ancient symbol, and the feature of the Nicole Miller Broad style. The Celtic theme is an important one in Nicole Miller and the NM Broad parlays the Celtic obsession brilliantly. Rich acetate colors and a modern eye shape complete this urban style. Size 51-15-135 and available in three colors: black, tortoise/chartreuse, and rose fade.
Bowery
The distinctive metal plate with raised Celtic cross topped by a shiny crystal is the feature of Nicole Miller’s Bowery style. The distinctive matte metal front combined with the textured acetate temples complement this thoroughly urban style. Size 53-15-130. Three modern colors: matte espresso/espresso, matte nude rose/rose, and matte indigo/black.
Downing
The important Celtic theme is boldly represented in the Nicole Miller’s Downing frame. The outline of the Celtic cross is translated as textured abstract raised metal crosses that play across the temple, complemented by the matte metal front. The end result is a striking style. Flex hinges for comfort. Size 50-17-135. Three colors: Matte black/olivine, matte chocolate/apricot, and matte aubergine/boysenberry.
Mercer
The bold shape of the Nicole Miller Mercer acetate style embodies the important Celtic theme with a raised abstract Celtic cross topped by a clear crystal and the balance of the temple studded with matte metal straight through the center of the temple. The beveled temples allow the rich color of the interior to peek through. The result is modern, gorgeous, with a touch of gothic. Size 51-16-135. Three colors: burgundy/tortoise, aubergine, olive horn.

Jean Paul Gaultier was born in ’52, and spent Thursdays with his grandmother in Arcueil. With her wardrobes and magazines full of women in netted stockings, his grandmother’s apartment became his private university. When he was punished for having sketched a Folies Bergères dancer while in class, his friends applauded him: the drawing was brilliant. The punishment turned into a revelation: this is what his calling would be.
