the dress....

OK, so i was killing myself searching for a picture of the dress that i fell in love with, but couldn't find it ANYWHERE on the web. i called the store and they told me that the dress was from fall '07 and they told me the style name. even with that info, i had NO luck. i was getting really frustrated, so i called the Monique Lhuillier contact number in Cali and I was told that the dress never made it to the runway. Is this something I should be wary of??? Would I not want a dress because it 'never made it to the runway'????

If you love the dress who cares if it made it to the runway or not? I don't think that should change your opinion of the dress. How you look and feel in the dress is what's important.

No way!! I feel that if you're totally in love with the dress and you think that it is 'the dress', then I say who cares if it never made it to runway? You're going to look gorgeous in it no matter what!

it could be a 'fake' which would mean the store is probably charging you a ton for the designer name when in fact it's just a knock-off.

I don't know about that but I would look into it. Call the store and see if they have any pictures they can give you. If so, email someone at Monique Lullier to make sure it's authentic.

I only say that because I remember a few months ago someone posting on one of the boards about a store trying to sell them or a friend (the details are shady in my brain) a fake designer dress....

i already called monique lhuillier's 'office'. i was already told it's authentic, just that it never made the runway. i just want to know if there's any reason one shouldn't buy a dress that never made it to the runway

Re: the dress....

hm maybe she said 'never made it to the runway' because you mentioned you couldn't find photos of it online, and their dresses are typically photographed as the models are walking on the runway (from what i've seen). i'm totally guessing.

Re: the dress....

Hey if you still love the dress maybe you can get them to discount it a little since it never made the runway
The designer still liked the dress enough to put her name on it and put it on the market. Maybe she had something too similar to that dress on the runway already? I really don't know
