Marie Antoinette - the Queen of France and Navarre of 1774-1792. At the 18th century, Marie-Antoinette led Rococo Fashion with huge, poufy hairstyles, enormous pannier skirts and all manner of decorative frills, feathers and bows. The Austrian-born royal was thrust into the heart of Versailles from a young age, and quickly learned how to dress to impress as the country’s new Queen. Often portrayed throughout history as a naive party-girl, Marie’s obsession with clothing was also a powerful form of self-expression, exposing to the world her determined, if reckless, streak of independence. Towards the end of the period, Marie Antoinette became the leader of French Fashion, as did her dressmaker Rose Bertin. Extreme extravagance was her trademark, which ended up majorly fanning the flames of the French Revolution.
