The costumes were designed by Italian costume designer and four-time Oscar winner Milena Canonero. She won both an Oscar and a BAFTA for best costume design for Marie Antoinette. Milena Canonero said, “For Marie Antoinette, I used original lace from the 18th century. In those days, all of the ladies in the court would be covered in lace because it was a way to show how rich you were. They had much more jewelry than I used. I prefer the decorations of the dresses to be more graphic than lacy, even though I use beautiful period lace sometimes”.

Marie Antoinette is a 2006 historical drama film written and directed by Sofia Coppola and starring Kirsten Dunst. The movie is based upon the book “Marie Antoinette: The Journey” by Antonia Fraser.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. It's thought that the dress might have been inspired by this other youthful portrait of Maria Antonia, again when she was just 7 years old. Here's another peach number that she wears while walking through the gardens of Versailles with her ladies in waiting. She has some gorgeous dressing gowns, something that she wears in her apartment when she doesn't feel up to dressing for the day.
