Nicole Miller chatted with us about her upcoming NYFW show while leading a beach clean-up in Sag Harbor.
NICOLE’S PICK-ME-UP: Environmentalism and sustainability are buzzed about in fashion marketing and corporate boardrooms, but Nicole Miller walked the walk — literally — to help clean up Sag Harbor’s Long Beach Sunday.
Partnering with the Group for the East End, the designer and 50 volunteers combed the shoreline and nearby grounds. A strip of grass between the beach and a parking lot tends to be where people toss bottles and other debris, Miller said. “It’s a very clean beach. It looks pristine, but there were a lot of things hidden in the greenery that you wouldn’t automatically notice,” Miller said.
The clean-up crew included artists Donald Sultan and April Gornik, models Susie Malignon and Bonnie Pfeiffer and former Page Six-ers Richard Johnson and Paula Froelich. “Everybody was chicly dressed, I must say, for the beach pick-up,” Miller said. In an hour, 220 pounds of debris was collected with plastic straws — 65 in total — being the most common item. Sunday’s outing reminded Miller of trips to Santo Domingo and Belize where beachfront trash is ample. “I don’t know why those countries don’t get organized more to clean up more. Even though our beaches have trash, they are in much better shape than if you go to some other places,” Miller said.
The clean-up crew was rewarded with an afternoon tasting of Miller’s signature rosé at Bilboquet. Next up, Miller will stage her show on Sept. 8 at Spring Studios — the first since the death of her longtime business partner Bud Konheim. Forgoing any “fancy sets,” thematic, videos or other special effects, the show will be more in line with her more austere mode. “I just feel that sometimes it detracts. One time we showed vintage movie clips when people walked in.
