Monique Lhuillier on Her Just-Launched Shoe Collection

It’s surprising that Monique Lhuillier is just now getting into the shoe game.

We caught a quiet moment with Lhuillier, who juggles being a mother and wife with her super successful bridal and mainline collections. And she looks utterly glamorous while she does it.
