Last week, we got our fix of ulta-femme gowns from Priscilla of Boston and bridal beauties from Romona Keveza, and now we’ve got something special for the understated crowd. Nicole Miller’s Spring 2011 collection is a stunning spectrum of sleek sheaths and elegant gowns. These gowns are perfect alternatives for the bride looking for a dress more reflective of her day-to-day style rather than something that screams “bride!”

These gorgeous options are as easy to envision at an elegant cocktail party as at an evening hotel wedding. In fact, many of Nicole’s styles were celebrity red carpet picks before they became bridal gowns.

The entire collection is 100 percent silk, and the draping necklines and antique shades of white and ivory recall old Hollywood glamour. This collection is dramatic, elegant and sexy all at once.
