Get that look! Versailles Style & Marie Antoinette as Icon

Hall of Mirrors Scene from “Marie Antoinette” 2006, directed by Sophia Coppola

I have finally seen Sophia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette and it was wonderful to see scenes shot in Versailles. I was there in 2001 and the “Louis” style is truly one of my favorites. I really liked the movie and thought the costumes (Milena Canonero won the 2007 Academy Award for this movie) and production design (K.K. Barrett- Production Designer and Véronique Melery, set decorator) were stunningly beautiful.

  1. Oh, darling, I was at Versailles in September. Such sumptuousness and opulence as one has never seen. Rather over the top, but coherent. The colors truly sang, and after I while I began to think that the glitter and gild made those cavernous rooms seem somehow cozier.

    Great Blog!!

  3. thats great! i loved the movie and want to recreate a louis-style-candy-coloured house when i move into my own place. thanks for the tips!

  4. My daughter's bedroom is decorated in the Marie Antionette style of blues and golds but she wanted a more funky twist on the style. We were in the Juicy store in Nashville Tn.yesterday and they have that funky Marie Antionette look so we are off to find items like the store has.
