She added jackets, some with full profiles, some, like the gold lace one Angelina Jolie was once photographed in, featured ae sleeves, and collarless short jacket. It was the kind of item someone could wear in a very formal setting or at a cocktail party, paired with a tank and jeans.

One tailored wedding gown was paired with a frothy shrug. Her designs never displayed excess, and were always balanced. For example, a merigue-ish skirt featured a form -fitting plain white strapless corset bodice. She also designed a collarless all-lace wedding dress with long sleeves and a-line edge at the hem. Some of her hems were scalloped

Personal Observation

Lhuillier's Beverly Hills bridal salon is a bride's paradise, dreamlike and lovely. One random dress pulled from the rack felt very heavy, substantial, the sign of beautiful, flowing fabric. The dress is one in Lhuillier's latest, her 2009 Bridal Collection. Soft, nearly negligible silk chiffon, an Empire waist and double dropped sleeve make this dress a combination of Greek goddess, Regency drama and even Romeo and Juliet, it is that romantic. It is that dreamy. There is a welcome feel to the shop, unlike those bridal shops in which bird-like sales people shadow you, daring you to touch their samples with unwashed hands.

Lhuillier's dresses begin at around $3,000 and go to about $45,000.

Overall Opinion

It's as though Lhuillier has not taken a wrong step. Her rise to fame was paired with a romantic love story of the accountant fiance who became the powerful business partner. After 10 years of marriage, the couple had their first baby, a bouncing boy named Jack and his room is profiled in this year's big spread in Elle Decor magazine. Hers is a contemporary portrait of perfect domesticity, a this-could-be-you scenario that makes her beautiful, elegant, flattering wedding dresses all the more appealing. Lhuillier as a representative for her own line, the lines themselves, and what they represent, through precision marketing, outside encouraging forces (think: celebrity support) and/or the clientele's imagination all create a dream design company, and, ultimately, a dream designer.
