Monique Lhuillier Spring 09

Monique's next collection is out and it is as amazing as ever. We love the bottom two shorter dresses; brides are spending so much time, energy and money picking out the perfect pair of shoes and nobody gets to see them! Also a shorter dress is a cleaner dress -- no more dragging your beautiful gown through grass or dirt.
This also makes us think of her gorgeous home that was featured in Elle Decor earlier this year. Below are a few pictures that are sure to inspire anyone. Did you know she was born in the Philippines and reportedly left home at age 15? Amazing!
