Marie Antoinette

Although I'm not a fan of the Marie Antoinette movie, I fell in love with all of the wonderful costumes. Kirsten Dunst makes living in luxury look effortless as she is transported around in horse drawn carriages wearing lovely flowing Victorian gowns. Winner of the 2006 Academy Award for Best Costume, Marie Antoinette has proven to be one of my favorite visual inspirations. Even though Halloween i

Luxurious fabrics of silks & satins with details of gilded gold is shamelessly romantic. Remember Sophia Coppola's version of Marie Antoinette, the entire movie reminded me of sweet cotton candy embellished with intricate details of magic. I began thinking if I were to go back in time & attend a ball in Versailles as the guest of Marie Antoinette what would I wear, well considering I wear

I have been to the k-mb agency today to have a look at the new autumn/winter 08/09 collections of the designers they represent. When I entered the agency's rooms my eyes automatically fell on a dress by Berlin based design duo Scherer González. Scenes from a dramatically arranged costume drama somewhere in between Cyberspace and Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette adaption immediately came to my mind. Haute Couture like garments made of silk, leather, fur, perfectly crafted left me totally speachless. Tiny little details like aureated snake's vertebrae add up to items that are worth every penny (many pennies!!!). I most certainly found the dress for my next red carpet event O_O I am not so much a fan of the campaign itself, but I can hardly wait to see these clothes used in an editorial...

From couple of days of ago Egypt was shocked and scared when she knew that the first two victims of Bread queues . I do not know how to put in words but the low class in Egypt is fighting for beard and here I am not speaking about metaphors but about real life In Boulaq two men were killed in a fight in Bread queue last week Again In Boulaq two men were killed in a fight in Bread queue last week First what is the Bread queue ?? The bread queue is a very long waiting queue in front of public bakeries the people in Egypt across the republic stand in to get the subsidized bread. Lately these queues became very long and standing in them for your turn will take hours and hours in the popular low working class areas The sorrowful incident that took place last week happened when a ma

I have just read yesterday in Daily Masry El-Youm that the government reached to a decision regarding the subsidies  . They will no longer subsidize certain commodities "partial elimination", not any commodities , they will no longer subsidize Bread and Fuel Already gradually the Fuel prices are increasing now along with other things like electricity But Bread ??? Are they ready to face to the consequences ?? I hate to say it but please read again what I wrote earlier from couple of weeks Folks Marie Antoinette is alive and is kicking Egypt “Let them eat cake.” History repeats itself still the idiots are the ones who do not learn a lesson from it Technorati tags: Marie Antoinette, Economy, Democracy, Egypt, News, Poverty, Citizen Journalism, Middle east, North Africa

I saw the movie Marie Antoinette a few weeks ago. It was an excellent movie. Marie Antoinette was played by Kirsten Dunst who as always did an excellent job. The Character kind of reminded me of Paris Hilton as far as the extravagant spending, fancy clothes, little dogs, and candy. But that’s where the resemblance ended. Marie was a lot more innocent than Marie and her character (the historical figure herself not the character in the movie) was not well developed for a number of reasons. She was the fifteenth child, and the last daughter, born into the family. Marie Antoinette later described her relationship with her mother as one of awe-inspired fear. She also developed a mistrust of intelligent older women as a result of her mother’s close relationship with Archduchess Maria Christina, who shared Maria Theresa’s birthday and was her favorite child. The lack of supervision also resulted in a sub-par education in many regards, and she could barely read or wr

The third feature length film by Sofia Coppola is like looking through a photoalbum. One beautiful picture after another flashes by, providing the viewer with snapshots of Marie Antoinette's teenage life. The costumes worn by the female characters are exquisite just like the huge ballroom locations. The film is all about Marie Antoinette and shows this girl who finds herself in the middle of all this luxury. It makes you question at times why Coppola has chosen to tell Marie Antoinette's story when it feels like this story could be of any girl of the same age. Coppola could have chosen to tell a story of fiction when the film itself doesn't really seem to take history all too seriously. It's nice though that with Marie Antoinette Coppola makes you think about how Marie Anotinette's life could have been like. Looking how she and her friends go through different boxes of shoes and show there love for the most beautiful fabrics for dresses, like modern day women on a shopping spree,

"Let them eat cake!" This is a motion picture detailing the life of Marie Antoinette after her betrothal to Louis XVI. From shoes to scandals, this movie outlines Marie Antoinette's nature, and her dedication to a life of fabulousness and outrageousness. We hear her utter those immortal words that caused such an outrage amongst the peasants of France, but we soon learn that it was a lie, as was much of her life.

I know it was already shown in theaters last year, but I liked it and I saw it two days ago in DVD. Even the soundtrack was really good. I liked the part, when it was her birthday and she watched and waited for the sunrise. Of course, in history she very irresponsible as a queen of france, but i like how the movie depicted her vulnerability and childhood mischievousness, and I praise Sofia Coppola's set design for the movie, from the shoes to the the whole bedroom. I love the dresses, the hair and it was really cute..hahaha. Its a sweet movie, a very opposite from "300", hehe.

Without guidance, adrift in a dangerous world, the young girl rebels against the isolated atmosphere of Versailles and becomes France’s most misunderstood monarch. Stripped of her riches and finery, imprisoned, and ultimately beheaded by her own subjects, the Queen of France became a toxic symbol for the wanton extravagance of the 18th century monarchy that incited to the French Revolution.

[Hover to enlarge pictures] © Columbia Pictures The Marie Antoinette movie of Sofia Coppola is a period piece but yet postmodern, not just the ordinary historic costume drama. The soundtrack is full of classic modern rock tracks and she gets away with that, but just barely. We saw it this wednesday and I think that I’m a bit conservative - seeing all these historic costumes made me wanna hear music from the same period! © Columbia Pictures There are excellent scenes from the inside of the magnificent Versailles. I read some where that they got access to Versailles on Mondays when it’s closed to take the scenes. They even got access to Marie Antoinettes private suite, so they really made the environment as authentic as it is possible. © Columbia Pictures We actually went to this movie mostly to see Versailles and these gorgeous 18th century costumes with wide skirts, flounces, bows, most elegant jewellerys and not to forget: hairstyles built on the height. Oh, and the

Marie Antoinette Soundtrack $14.99 Available at: Amazon.comThe Revolution is upon us, both literally and figuratively. No sooner had Sofia Coppola's hot new film, Marie Antoinette, hit the theaters than Antoinette-inspired fashion and beauty products started filling stores. The little film about the teen queen who had a penchant for parties and a less-than-compassionate view towards the starving

Marie Antoinette was born on November 2nd, 1755, the inauspicious "Day of the Dead", when Catholics commemorate their departed. Because of the nature of this day, the early birthdays of Marie Antoinette were celebrated on November 1st.I will use this day to commemorate her one last time.It's true that Marie Antoinette was not ready to be Queen of France when she did, and that she didn't reign responsibly, and that her unpopularity with the people precipitated the French Revolution. What many people fail to realize is that her character changed with the difficulties and that many times, during her last years, she did prove herself worthy of being a Queen.After the French Revolution, on October 5th, 1789, a mob of people stormed Versailles in the middle of the night, asking for the Queen's blood. Marie Antoinette was able to escape to the King's apartments and avoid the crowd that got to her room and pierced her empty bed with pikes. The next morning, the mob was still outside the pa

Despite the films many bad reviews (it drew boos at the Cannes Film Festival) I am still very anxious to watch this movie. I read about one of Frances most famous Queens a long time ago and I had to say she captivated me with her chic style and carelessness. Marie-Antoinette is directed by Sofia Coppola and I am sure she will make it great with her unique style. You probably ask what is a film review doing in a fashion blog? Well to me the films decadence and extravagance has struck me as utterly and beautifully fashionable.
