Marie Antoinette 1938 - Costumes 

This is a little tribute I made to the costumes of "Marie Antoinette" (1938).The costumes for "Marie Antoinette" were the most lavish ever created for a Film. Fabrics were specially woven in France. Hundreds of yards of antique laces, Gold and Silver cloth, Silk brocades and velvets were used. Embroiderers were brought from europe to decorate the gowns with exquisite hand-work. In all Norma Shearer wore 34 costumes, All made to couture standards. Nothing was spared to create Beautiful interpretations of 18th century Fashions. The costumes play up the drama in every scene and follow Marie Antoinette's rise and fall as Queen of France. The costumes were designed by the most influential costume designer of the 1930s,Gilbert Adrian. I highly recommend this film to any History,film or fashion lover.
