Marie Antoinette: A Crown of Flowers

Description

A little extravagance never hurt anyone. Or did it?

Step into the wonderfully excessive world of eighteenth-century Versailles, where fashion was theater, hairstyles were architectural masterpieces, and more was never quite enough.

Inspired by the extravagant coiffures of the French court, Marie Antoinette: A Crown of Flowers transforms a towering Rococo hairstyle into a whimsical garden of hand-embroidered flowers, shimmering sequins, colorful beads, and cascading embellishments.

Vibrant pinks, purples, yellows, and turquoise bring this elaborate creation to life, celebrating the spectacle, luxury, and delightful absurdity of eighteenth-century fashion.

Part of Ricamo Strano’s Versailles: The Art of Excess collection, this original textile artwork explores a world in which fashion and ornament became extraordinary expressions of status, beauty, and theatrical excess.
