Once the toast of Parisian and Versailles society in the 18th century, the opulent queen of France, marie Antoinette lost her head in the French Revolution when the country's monarchy was overthrown. Nevertheless, her legend as one of the most beautiful and fashionable women of all time still lives on.

Following Sophia Coppola's film based on the life of marie Antoine, everything old is new again as the French beauty becomes a grand choice of choice with a multitude of style options rivaling even those in marie's very own well-stocked closets.

A pleasantly pastel option for both little girls and grown ladies of the court alike, this marie Antoinette costume is complete with a long, pale pink and ivory gown with gold brocade embellishments. The sweeping, floor-length gown is bedecked with three quarter length sleeves that end in an elegant ruffle and adorned with subtle, pink satin bows.

For a more contemporary, sexy version of marie Antoinette, there is also a short-skirt version in black and gold lamé. With a short, pouffy skirt and sheer, three-quarter length sleeves in black, this becomes a cute, playfully sexy rendition of a timeless beauty.

Top it all off with an elaborately coiffed, powdered white wig. Piled high in the bouffant and pompadour style of 18th century France with cascading sausage curls in the front and back, this is the piece de resistance of any marie Antoinette costume you may choose!
