Does anyone know the cost of a dress from Monique Lhuillier’sBliss collection? Specifically I am looking at this dress: BL 1101.
Has anyone tried this dress on? How does it look? Any feedback?
I included a link to a picture below:

Thanks!

Oh, I ordered my ml Bliss two months ago (BL0901)- and have to say that they are just as exquisite in person.
The best thing to do is to go and try them on- some website said mine was also going to be $3k and up, and in fact I paid $2400 plus another $500 for five alterations at the ML flagship here in LA. (Yay for getting a dream designer dress UNDER budget!).

Side note: I’m a Chicago bride too! (but currently live in LA). Have you decided on a venue yet?

My DREAM was the Bliss 0918 but it retailed for $2600 + tax + alterations which put me wayyyy over budget. I skipped it and got something from China :-/ but am still pining away for that dress.. If I can find it for cheaper, the China dress is going right on the classifieds section! 🙂

I have to be honest, I was disappointed by the two Bliss dresses that I tried. They were more expensive, but IMO less unique than Pronovias. But that’s just me 🙂

@MissBoston: I wanted to contribute, and this may be too late, but the YWCA in Lynchburg, VA actually has a bridal gown shop where Kleinfield’s donates dresses. I purchased BL0901 there for $158! It’s incredible. They had the ML Lourdes dress for $400. Just thought I’d share.
