Although Marie Antoinette is set in the Pre-Revolutionary Era in France, I can't help but to be inspired by the colors and details of the gowns from both the film and the actual woman. Played by Kirsten Dunst, Marie Antoinette is known for her frivolity and whimsical appreciation for the finer things in life. In the 2006 film by Director Sophia Coppola, Marie is costumed in a variety of bright colors with excessive amounts of lace, beading and feathers. The movie won an Oscar for Best Achievement in Costume Design.
Here are a few examples of fashion from the film and a modern adaptation for the looks:
