...After the recent string of murders, police have started conducting sting operations at sex-for-hire haunts and are offering rewards for information leading to arrests. All three of the women killed recently appear to have been robbed and murdered by someone posing as a client. Police found their badly bruised bodies on the floors of their apartments.

Today, the company runs four stores; by mid-2007 it had earned more than $14 million from selling dresses that run from $500 to $600 each and coats that cost up to $1,500. The average client spends $1,000 a month in support of her princess habit - but some spend as much as $4,000 a month.
