ISO: Strapless sweater dress

During season four of Project Runway (which was also the first season I ever watched) I was thoroughly enamored by nearly everything that Jillian Lewis (she of the motionless forehead and somewhat bland personality) wore. She didn’t win, but I loved her final collection and I especially loved what she wore to the Bryant Park runway show. I knew it was her own design and I figured it was a one-off thing she’d made for herself. Imagine my distress when I realized that it was actually part of her fall/winter 2008 lineup which means that, somewhere out there, it was for sale. Two years ago.
Yes, I understand the absurdity of a short, strapless dress in a chunky cable knit and I also understand the ridiculousness of that seemingly functional but useless row of buttons on the fullest part of the garment…but I want it anyway, dammit. Or at least something similar.
Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to locate such a dress thus far, which is of course why I’m posting about it here.
If you know of a place where I can get a strapless, chunky cable-knit sweater dress (with a full-ish skirt!) then please be awesome and leave a comment here!
