About this deal

Queen Marie Antoinette of France and two of her Children Walking in The Park of Trianon, 1785, by Adolf Ulrik Wertmüller According to the London Times Magazine, at the start of pre-production, Sofia Coppola handed Milena Canonero a box of pastel-colored macaroons from the luxury pastry house. Milena Canonero said, “She told me, these are the colors I loved, so I used them as a palette”. She then dons her first French outfit – a blue silk caraco and petticoat with a matching tricorn hat. Blue seems like an obvious choice for Marie, since not only is blue “de France” – a color traditionally used to represent France, but blue is also the color favored by royalty.

While not the first look we see, it is the first outfit worn in the chronology of the story. A 14-year-old Maria Antonia's first traveling outfit is a sort of caraco with a contrasting quilted petticoat. In creating the costumes for Marie Antoinette, Milena Canonero and 6 assistant designers created the gowns, hats, suits, and prop costume pieces. Ten rental houses were also employed, and the wardrobe unit had several transport drivers. The wardrobe department worked 24-hour shifts just to keep up with production demands.

She added, “I simplified the very heavy look of the 18th century. I wanted it to be believable but more stylized”. As we move into the second act of the film, Marie wears this incredible zone front mourning gown on the balcony at Versailles. Not only are they warm, but they are versatile, too. Just got out of the bath? Dressing gown. Just got out of bed? Dressing gown. Just got home from work? You guessed it...dressing gown. They are one of those things that help to add a little bit of luxury to everyday life, much like our guides to the best silk pillowcases and the best weighted blankets. And this white silk party dress that she wears for her 18th birthday, with the accent of silk flowers along the collar.

It has beautiful wide inverted box-pleated trim that edges the zone front and the skirt opening with a subtle touch of aqua. Sofia Coppola added, “We took certain licenses. I wanted to capture the palette of a teenager – bright turquoise and pink candy colors”.

This silk peach English gown, again, coordinating with Marie's apartment, is thought to have been inspired by this painting of Marie Antoinette. Fashion historian Katy Werlin writes on her blog that “The gaulle, or chemise a la reine, was made infamous by Marie Antoinette in the early 1780s… The gaulle consists of layers of thin muslin, loosely draped around the body and belted around the waist with a sash”. The terms and conditions of sale herein described shall be enforced in accordance with, and governed by the laws of the State of California. She also wears this wrap dressing gown when her and her bffs go on a shopping and pastry eating spree.
