New York Fashion Week will reach a new level of excitement this year as Brother International Corporation announces it has partnered with iconic American designer, Nicole Miller. The momentum is building as Brother will be sponsoring Miller's much anticipated fashion show scheduled for Thursday, September 6th at Industria Studios in New York City.

"We are thrilled to be partnering with Nicole Miller," said Jun Horie, Brother Home Appliance Division Vice President. "Her passion and versatility to design for a broad range of fashionistas was the common thread to work together. Just as Brother designs its machines to appeal to sewing enthusiasts of all ages and skill levels, Nicole Miller's collections are loved across generational lines."

As embroidery hits the fashion stage as one of today's hottest trends, Miller is embracing the look with her own unique designs. Known for her signature graphic prints and elegant sophistication, the designer is embracing embroidery as an eclectic embellishment in her collections. As part of the partnership with Brother, Miller recently received the Brother SE1900, one of the company's hottest sewing and embroidery machines on the market today.

"From the minute I began embroidering on the Brother SE1900 my creativity soared," said Miller. "I'm excited to be working with Brother. I believe our recent partnership will be the perfect balance between creativity and innovation."

The Brother SE1900 offers a 5" x 7" embroidery field to create stunning embroidery designs.
