Bliss by Monique Lhuillier

Los Angeles-based couture bridal designer, Monique Lhuillier, has launched a new bridal collection. Bliss by Monique Lhuillier is a reworking of many of Lhuillier's best-selling gowns, and in most cases, at half the price.

I stopped into Lhuillier's Edina boutique last week to take a peek at the collection. The gowns are definitely lovely with classically feminine flourishes—delicate embellishments, fine laces, and hand-tufting—and modern tailoring. The only disappointment was that they were all strapless. Strapless is by far the most marketable gown style, but even so, I wish there were a few other neckline options. 

But really the biggest selling point of the gowns is the price. With all of them retailing for $2300 to $3500.

Can you send me a picture of the second dress in on the left in the image below your store window image? I just tried it on and wanted to show my mom, but can't find a real picture of it anywhere!

Any way I could get a picture of the second dress from the left in the top picture?

I am pretty sure I bought the fourth dress starting left to right for my wedding. Can I get an actual shot of it to keep? The store I bought it from would not allow me to take a picture. Why are there no pictures of her amazing collection online?
