ashion stars are aligning for a daz-

City-based fashion designer Nicole
Miller will make special appearances at an
invite-only benefit fashion show at the home
of Shari Kaufman on Wednesday, April 13,
and for a personal styling
and fashion consultation
— open to the public — at
SHE boutique in Bloomfield
Hills on Thursday, April 14.
“Nicole Miller, who is on
the global fashion pages
year after year, is a huge
philanthropist for chil-

Eisenshtadt, owner of SHE.
“When Frankel Jewish
Academy approached me
for a fundraiser, it seemed
like the perfect marriage
for all three of us to have
a stellar fashion event and
at the same time serve our
community.”
Funds raised from
both Nicole Miller events
will benefit the Frankel
Jewish Academy Student

The two days of events will launch with
Miller attending a private fashion show.
The next day, fashionistas turning out for

With a degree in fine
arts from the prestigious
Rhode Island School of
Design as well as a degree
from Ecole de la Chambre
Syndicale de la Couture
Parisienne in Paris, Miller
combines her art training,
couture technique and
her own French heritage
to create a unique, often
irreverent, style of cloth-
ing worn by Angelina
Jolie, Beyonce, Blake
Lively and more. SHE has
featured styles from the
Artelier Nicole Miller col-
lection for a number of
Nicole Miller years because they are in
high demand from their
multi-faceted, fashion-forward clientele,
Eisenshtadt says. “I really think the latest
Artelier collection is the best collection ever.
