Monique Lhuillier in the news

Monique Lhuillier Bridal Barbie

Monique Lhuillier teamed up with Mattel to create Bride Barbie. She wanted to create a one of a kind creation for every girl's favorite doll-maker.

Monique's Bride Barbie wears an off white bodice and full tulle skirt with a sable colored sash to accentuate the waist. She wears a rhinestone brooch and diamond stud earrings and ring. This is a modern and contemporary design, similar to her Swan Lake designer gown.

This Barbie is on sale for $140.00 at Monique Lhuillier boutiques and can be purchased online at www.barbiecollector.com.

She participated in a benefit for the Asia Society's programs for young Fillipino leadership and cultural diversity education and to Bantay Bata 163's education and care programs for abused children. This was Monique's first Philippine fashion show and was one of the biggest events of the year. The event consisted of a dinner gala show with a bonus, with a performance by none other than Lea Salonga (Monique created her bridal gown as well).
