Twenty8Twelve launched at Gramercy Hotel

We reported the launch of Twenty8Twelve months ago and it finally happened!! Invited but unable to make it WWD reported on all the details:

Sisters Sienna and Savannah Miller made a quick trip to New York on Thursday evening to mark the launch of their spring-summer Twenty8Twelve by S. Miller collection at the rooftop of the Gramercy Park hotel. "I need a vacation," said Sienna, who left on Friday for Los Angeles to continue working on a new film. "I wish I could just come to New York for a break, but that hasn't happened in such a long time."

She did, however, manage to dodge the paparazzi for a little while on Thursday morning when the girls went out for some quality sister time. "We had a really great sister moment today and went to a little place down the street to get our nails done," Sienna said.

As for the collection, don't expect to see it on a runway soon, although the sisters said they hope to show one day. "For me, there has to be a real reason to have a show," said Savannah, who used to design for Alexander McQueen. "At McQueen, the clothes called for a production and he really puts on a real show." Sienna agreed, but said, "I would love to have a show someday, maybe if we are bought by the Gucci Group. Then we can have one."

Loving her ambition! The contemporary line will kick off for fall exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman in New York, Neiman Marcus in Los Angeles and Holt Renfrew in Canada.
