6:30 AM: I get up early and starts with coffee and immediately check my emails!
7:00 AM: Yoga home with Stephen, I have worked with him for three months and he is so wonderful! Yoga is a wonderful way to start the day.
8:00 AM: Time for breakfast with my children, Jack and SophiaAS € | On the morning is a wonderful time for us to talk about school, their friends and other important things going on their lives.
9:00 AM: This morning, I showed them a couple of sketches for the new collection, Jack replied to all the brilliant colors he has such a great eye. For the rest of the morning I get my kids ready for their activities, Jack has been tennis and Sophia is going on her daily walk - they love to be active and have lots to do.
10:00 AM: I arrive at the office, a large part of the afternoon is spent in design, fabric or embroidery appointments, and the assembly session at our house model. We do it every day up to NY to ensure that every stitch, hem and details are perfect. Our show in NY in September and February is the most important time of year, and I want to be sure that my best is shown to the editors, buyers and of course our fans.
2:00 PM: Tom, my husband and CEO of Monique Lhuillier, and I get on the phone with our Public Relations team in NY-they help us with the show, send out invitations, confirms our editors to attend and other major print lines.
3:00 PM: Tom and I are on a call with the show producer to review all integral parts of the upcoming show.
3:30 PM: Then itâ € ™ s back to DESIGN-ITA € ™ s what I do and who I am! I work with my team to find the best fabrics and materials to bring my sketches to fruition. I would also take the rest of the afternoon for more sketchingâ € | I am constantly inspired by what I see in everyday life, books I read, movies I see € | even though we're working on spring 2011, I am already thinking about Fall 2011! Design for me never ends, it is my passion.
Some day, even today, I have fittings at Flagship on Melrose with a client or celebrity. I love to have face-time with the women wearing my collection and will remain supporters.
After that home for dinner with my kids and Tom. My family is so important to me and I love having time to spend with them in the morning and at night. Iâ € ™ m really blessed to have my family accompany me to NY for Fashion Week-Â itâ € ™ sa family event! ~ Monique Lhuillier
