Let them eat cake
These costumes were inspired by 18th century rococo and the queen of fashion, Marie Antoinette who represented the symbol of extravaganza.
The queen loved fashion and enjoyed a lavish lifestyle. Splendid costume, magnificent jewelery and phenomenal hairstyles became her trademark in her enchanting appearances. She spent a fortune on clothes and accessories and three different rooms had to be allocated to her gowns in Versailles.
"Let them eat cake" was supposedly spoken by Marie Antoinette upon learning that the people of France were suffering due to bread shortage during the reign of Louis XVI although there is no official record of the sentance ever being spoken by the queen.
About 70 meters of sating, 50 meters of ribbon, countless amount of lace, pearls and flowers and other accessories were used to create these looks.
