A fashion icon and symbol of her era, Marie Antoinette’s style remains endlessly reimagined – by fashion designers, artists, filmmakers, and musicians. This exhibition invites you to explore 250 years of design shaped by the enduring legacy of this timeless figure.

Featuring an extensive collection of objects and media—including couture gowns and audiovisual installations—the grand blockbuster exhibition delves into how and why Marie Antoinette became the most stylish queen in Europe. But this showcase extends far beyond fashion. It also investigates the enduring influence of her legacy on art, design, and pop culture, tracing connections from the opulent chambers of Versailles to Sofia Coppola’s 2006 film, Marie Antoinette.
