Nicole + Felicia was founded in 2015 by Nicole and Felicia Chang. Over the last decade, they built an reputation for dramatic silhouettes, intricate handwork, dimensional embellishments and craftsmanship. They have created statement-making looks for celebrities ranging from Taylor Swift for her record-breaking “Eras” tour to Jennifer Lopez at the Golden Globes.

“For the past 10 years, we have had the privilege of dressing women for one of the most important moments of their lives. Evening allows us to continue that relationship beyond the wedding day. We want to create pieces that make a woman feel extraordinary whenever she enters a room. Introducing Nicole + Felicia Evening during New York Fashion Week marks an incredibly exciting new chapter for our house,” said Nicole Chang, cofounder and creative director.

The eveningwear collection is designed for red carpets, galas, black-tie celebrations and other memorable occasions. Looks range from a tailored gown with sheer sculpted lace bodice and cutouts to a dramatic strapless ballgown with overlay. Fabrics include Mikado, organza, lace, tulle and charmeuse, while embellishments run the gamut from beading and feathers to fringe, sequins and metals.

The gowns, which are sized from 0 to 20, are created in the house’s Taipei, Taiwan, atelier. Prices range from $3,000 to $12,000.

Last October, the sister duo put on their first fashion show, “A Decade of Excellence,” kicking off bridal week and celebrating the 10th anniversary of their Taipei-based bridal and eveningwear house.

As reported, The Chang family was already an established entity in Southeast Asia’s bridal manufacturing hub when Nicole + Felicia launched in 2015. Nicole Chang oversees creative, while Felicia Chang manages the brand’s finances and production. Nicole + Felicia counts more than 100 stockists worldwide, but the U.S. is its largest growth market.

Nuvia Trionfo, global director of sales, will oversee sales strategy across both the Nicole + Felicia Evening and Bridal divisions. She previously spent nearly a decade at Marchesa, where she oversaw both evening and bridal before founding Esperanza Bridal & Evening.

In addition, Susan Miller will serve as sales executive for the evening division. She is the founder of Susan Miller Couture Consultancy LLC. Under Trionfo’s global sales leadership, Miller will focus on the continued development and expansion of Nicole + Felicia Evening across the U.S. market. Trionfo and Miller are based in New York. The line will be distributed throughout the U.S. and internationally at specialty and luxury retailers with some overlap with their bridal accounts.
