Miami Chic Goes Sexy in Slacks

Designer Diane von Furstenberg was in town this past weekend making several stops at various Miami shopping destinations. Miami Chic caught up with the powerhouse at a cocktail event held at Saks Fifth Avenue in the Shops of Bal Harbour. We found several fashionista fans of DVF donning her designs and other attendees rocking other labels. Our first group of style setters played it safe in classic midnight tinged pants (from left to right).[Photos by George Martinez]
