Born Diane Monique Lhuillier, Monique was raised in the southern part of the Philippines called Cebu. Her mother’s glamorous style and extensive travels were early influences.
At 15, Monique left home to attend boarding school in Lausanne, Switzerland. She moved to Los Angeles to attend the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM), receiving a merit- based scholarship to attend the advanced program and focusing on eveningwear.
It was in trying to find her own wedding gown that she was inspired to design wedding gowns.
Visit her Trunk Show this weekend in NYC at Kleinfelds. Visit their website for more info.
