Though several creations honored the traditional bride, others paid tribute to the leg, with thigh-high slits that managed to avoid revealing too much.

Miller, whose custom designs cater to Chicago's Filipino community, closed the show with a one-two punch: a multilayered frock constructed of 22 yards of gold charmeuse that was a mini coming atcha with cascading train in the rear-view mirror, followed by the finale: a white leatherette pencil gown accented by a necklace of "ice" and an Ice Queen hood headpiece.
