Designer Michelle Smith creates timeless silhouettes with smart, sexy, feminine flair that satisfies her ever-expanding customer base. Born out of Smith's lifelong love of fashion, Milly is an iconic brand known for exquisite prints and colors, luxurious fabrics and attention-to-detail. Sophisticated and glamorous, her collections embody modern sensibility with a vintage vibe. website: www.millyny.com Editorial note: Ms.Smith is a very talented designer who I first met several years ago when I noticed, in a sea of stylish women how she was simply perfectly dressed; both classic and stylish, vibrant but not flashy. I recall thinking to myself that is what I want the women in my life to dress like. Her Madison Avenue store is an artistic exhibit of beautiful and useful fashionable items for evolved and sophisticated ladies. Her use of colors, fabrics and sense of fashion history illustrate an understanding of what type of clothing make a woman feel fabulous and special but also keep her classically well styled. This woman deserves success and her wonderful Madison Avenue boutique deserves your patronage.
