Channeling Antoinette

It's no secret Marie Antoinette was a fashion icon, so much that after centuries her opulence and style are still remembered. Tiny Bird's hair for the Black Swan Swansong fashion show reminded me of the long gone french queen and it made me wonder how would Marie Antoinette look like if she lived amongst us in these modern days? And here I bring to you my attempts, or my guesses of what a modernized Marie Antoinette look would be like. Pastel colors, flowers and bows reign these looks.





Which look do you like better?

  2. Aww tyvm Vanity! I wasn't sure about blogging the blonde look, since it didn't have that much of a Marie Antoinette feel, but I figured that since it was a modern interpretation it didn't have to be so literal.

    Thanks!! <333
