When I first learned of Monique, I pronounced “L’huillier” the French way, which did not go over well among the employees at the company. Whoops. They pronounce it “Le-hoo-li-eh,” which I still think is bizarre. The designs are fabulous though.
I also pronounced Ralph “Lauren” the French way when I was first working in the US. Then a stylist corrected me publicly in spine-tingling tones. Sorry dude, my first job in fashion was in France and that’s where I learned all the names of the designers.

Do you know if there is a Monique Lhuillier sample sale on the east coast yet in 2009? Thanks!
I don’t! But I will keep that in mind and next time I come into contact with anyone there I’ll be sure to ask!
Best,
