Bejeweled, empire-waisted and halter gowns intended for celebrities pack the fashion showrooms of designers like REEM ACRA, MONIQUE LHUILLIER and PAMELA ROLAND. But now that Sunday's Golden Globes' red carpet has been cancelled as a result of the writers' strike, designers and celebs are scrambling for a plan B.
Designer and star favorite MONIQUE LHUILLIER celebrated the debut of her brand-new boutique in Hollywood Wednesday night, and all of Tinseltown's top stars were in attendance!

Just one more episode before Lily weds Marshall on TV's "How I Met Your Mother," and star ALYSON HANNIGAN -- who also played Willow on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" -- is psyched to try on wedding dresses!
We joined Alyson as she visited the famed MONIQUE LHUILLIER bridal salon in Beverly Hills to give some of Monique's gorgeous creations a test drive.
From BADGLEY MISCHKA to MONIQUE LHUILLIER and REEM ACRA to AMSALE, it's Bridal Fashion Week in New York City, where everything the fashion-forward bride desires is on display!
This season lace is everywhere, very romantic, very pretty on both structured and loose gowns; the big sash is gone, with beaded belts in its stead in muted shades of caramel, café au lait and crèmes; and headbands, which are a trend in fashion, are also a trend in bridal. Still popular are jewels in the hair, and shorter, decorated veils are in.
"As The World Turns" star TERRI COLOMBINO met her husband ARTIE COLOMBINO at an Emmy party in 1999. It wasn't love at first sight, but Terri says by the second date, she knew he was someone special. They were together six months when he proposed, and 10 months later, they were married.
Terri has a small family, but Artie has a large Italian family, so they had 300 people at their wedding at Grace Church in New York, with the reception at Grand Prospect Hall in Brooklyn. The bride wore MONIQUE LHUILLIER.
"All My Children" stars ALEXA HAVINS and JUSTIN BRUENING's on-screen chemistry as Babe Carey and Jamie Martin heated up the TV screen, but also quickly turned into a real-life romance. And while their soap-opera liaison may be having its ups and downs, they are having no such problems off-screen. The two recently wed in a romantic, intimate ceremony in Cinnamon Bay on the Caribbean Island of St. John.
Five soap opera weddings didn't prepare Alexa for the emotional reality of genuinely saying "I do," and she had trouble getting her lines out. Justin, too, choked up before the 35 guests, who trudged through the sand to reach a secluded beach where they exchanged their vows at sunset.
What will the pregnant KATIE HOLMES wear for her walk down the aisle when she becomes Mrs. TOM CRUISE? Will it be a bridal gown by MONIQUE LHUILLIER, VERA WANG or REEM ACRA? All three are celeb favorites when it comes to bridal designs for the big day!
ET stopped by the Reem Acra design studio where the fashion-house owner showed us several gowns that she felt would be great for Katie to wear with her baby bump.
If you loved the glamour of MARCIA CROSS' emerald ELIE SAAB gown, or you are lusting for the sapphire blue J. MENDEL creation worn by TERI HATCHER at Sunday night's Emmys, ALLEN B. SCHWARTZ, design director of ABS by Allen Schwartz, can help you reach your dreams.
Allen will be interpreting both of these dazzling dresses and more for leading department stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale's at affordable prices.
All you fashionistas out there, remember this name: MONIQUE LHUILLIER. She's the hottest new designer to the stars and her unique styles have adorned everyone from ANGELINA JOLIE on the red carpet to BRITNEY SPEARS down the aisle.
Tonight on ET, our own MARIA MENOUNOS is with Monique as she debuts her new, exciting bridal line down the catwalk in New York City!
Oscar® winner KEVIN COSTNER wed his longtime love CHRISTINE BAUMGARTNER over the weekend in a beautiful Aspen ceremony and tonight on ET, we bring you the all of the glamorous details behind Christine's fairy tale gown!
The bride's strapless, satin dress and handmade veil were carefully created by MONIQUE LHUILLIER. And if you think you recognize the name, you're right. The talented Lhuillier also designed newlywed BRITNEY SPEARS' luxurious, $30,000, creamy latte ensemble she wore at her nuptials to KEVIN FEDERLINE on September 18.
We first broke the surprise story, then we brought you People magazine's intimate photos of the wedding. Now, we have details on what superstar BRITNEY SPEARS wore on her gorgeous wedding day!
Tonight on ET, our JANN CARL sits down exclusively with MONIQUE LHUILLIER, the top-notch designer who created Britney's elegant gown, to find out what no one else knows -- including the frock's true hue!
