This is an extremely valuable and rare historic item that is terribly fragile; they are not going to have a modern day model pop in on and walk down the catwalk in it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nqKis66PaciqkpM.html

    Rose Bertin never "made" a dress, this was reserved to male tailors; Bertin was only selling trims and flowers, lace and ribbons to go on the dress. There is no actual proof that dress was really from Marie Antoinette. The only proof would be a description in a book by an eyewitness, or depicted in a painting.

    She wasnt really "minister of fashion" of course; its the way called her because she was dressing up Marie Antoinette and spend days at the palace talking chiffons and ribbons. She was a big part responsible for the spendings and bad reputation of the queen, because she made her spend tons of money on silly things while people didn't have bread on their table... Marie Antoinette was partly very unpopular for that reason

    it’s amazing to think that these dresses were worn by a literal queen, OVER 200 YEARS AGO, it’s so phenomenal to think about it. I can’t even explain my feelings right now. It also would’ve been amazing to live in those times- kind of. If you were in an upper class. Before last week, I wasn’t interested in the 1700’s or kings of queens until now. And now i’m wishing I was one of them bc i think it would be really neat to have that life. Just the style of the dresses and the style in general is so interesting. I’m obsessed with all of the womens fashion

It doesn't give the viewer a true sense of the gown, nor did the conservator nor the curator describe the context for which the gown would have been worn, was it day or night, was it representative of what others right below her station were wearing at the time? It could have been so much more.

    patterns of fashion is an amazing boom series that will most likely teach you alot about the history around everything aswell, but i always tell people to not underestimate even "normal" or modern tailoring and consider that the people traditionally making these garments (and I mean really making then, not "designing") didnt ever receive the credit that they deserved. on the matter of these sorts of clothes only being available for the super rich: clothes were often handed down continually, to the point where the "rags" someone mentioned here were once just as fashionable only less bejeweled as a high lady's gown... stitch in time has an interesting episode on this featuring the coat worn of the hedgeknight i believe (its been a while)

    It's thrilling to see sketches and hear the stories from documents on the French cutoure industry operated by women- from textile manufacture, design, construction, and fitting, to cleaning and maintenance hundreds of years later. All the specialities provided a living for women and their families. Another fascinating and talented member of her court is painter Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun. Marie used her power to hire women, and set an example for the aristocracy.

    Marie-Antoinette actually did hand some of her dresses down, although sometimes unwittingly. For instance, when Antoinette arrived to be handed over from Austria to France, the clothes she had on her back were taken off and she was redressed to enter France as the Dauphine. The clothing that was removed was given to the ladies present, and that happened a lot throughout her reign. She only kept certain dresses and state gowns, and even those filled, I think, three bedroom sized closets at Versailles. Moreover, those closets were open to the public!

    it was very common to hand clothes or bits of them down when they went out of fashion, and sometimes clothes would travel down the ranks of society until the very poorest peasants wore them in states that were unrecognizable. a stitch in time has a very interesting episode on this phenomenon

    Someone should have pointed out to the woman with the light page boy haircut that one does NOT put on white cotton gloves to touch a period dress and then pat one's hair with that self-same glove at 3:17. The oil from her hair is now on that glove and can, nay WILL be transferred to that centuries-old dress and that is NOT a good thing.

    HistoryBoy--Your snark fails. You can wash your hair right now, this moment, and oils will begin to accumulate, starting at the roots and moving outward. FURTHERMORE, one's hands accumulate oils constantly, or your skin would crack and bleed. We wash our hands, too, in a "civilized world", but the glands in our skin constantly replenish those oils washed away by soap and water.

    it survived centuries of oily hands and other highly unproper handling that doesnt meet modern conservation standards, including being altered and worn again!, so I'm sure it will be fine that she touched her hair for a second. its not the end of the world, nor the dress, since the museum wont allow it to disentegrate. she is cleaning it and repairing it so she saved this dress anyways.

    Roaming from the East to the West in the royal textile, I have seen all have elaborated needle jobs on the garments by colorful silk material. For the art views, I see western esp M.A. got much freedom in design than the rigid eastern ones. Imagine M.A. wore them in the big social ball room, very enjoyable for visual or the atmosphere. I can tell she wasn't a big but a slim pretty girl.🙂

    This dress is only attributed to Rose Bertin, the queen's modiste. There isn't any actual, verifiable record of it having been embellished by Bertin (women were forbidden by law from actually making or tailoring women's dresses and other attire. That was the domain of men), or having belonged to Marie-Antoinette, and moreover, it was altered after the Revolution.

    Thats actually incorrect. By Maries time women could make gowns, petticoats and shifts. Court gowns (robe a la coeur) and stays were the domain of men as they were still considered to be ‘technically outside women’s abilities ‘ . Court gowns covers a very specific style that were worn to formal state events (at least by MA’s time, the earlier sun king mandated the design and that they should always be worn in court, this lapsed over time) . There is a fab book all about the fashion of MA’s court that goes into the social, economic and political practices of the court

    I have seen a hat of Henry the 8 th but the Tudor period was another two hundred years before Marie Antoinette. Also after the civil war a large amount of royal history was destroyed. This is why we don't see Ann boleyn s or Queen Elizabeth s dresses. They are extremely rare and I don't think anything apart from the hat survives of Henry 8th. Most of the crown jewels were broken down. A shame I'd have loved to see the clothes in all their glorious colour.

    Most of the clothes deteriorated - everything was made of natural fibers so probably they don't last forever. I have a silk kimono that is about 70 years old and the silk is practically turning to dust. And it was never worn!

    I believe they may have found a gown of Elizabeth I, but there are several reasons items from the past are lost forever. One, they may get damaged and the original owners destroy them. Two, in the case of royalty, something these items are past down to friends or servants, and then they aren’t kept well or are eventually destroyed. Three, in the case of Elizabeth, she was succeeded by a man so her clothes wouldn’t be suitable for James and were probably considered unfashionable by his wife Anne. Four, these royal gowns cost more than some people’s yearly salary. If James had no use for them, he would have sold them off, or had them broken apart so parts could be used in new garments. Five... time. Probably a lot of garments from this time just disintegrated. We are talking 400-500 years since the Tudors. There are a handful of small items; a coif of Anne Boleyn’s, a cap of Henry VIII, his armor, and maybe some gloves, stockings and a gown of Elizabeth’s... possibly more, I don’t know.

Although beautiful, I can't imagine dressing like that unless you lived a life of leisure and can you imagine the dry cleaning bills?!!!

    Actually it was Louis XIV that started it. He insisted on different clothes for himself and then all the people living with him did so and then it just became the thing to do. Dressing could take hours- the hair, the pinning and sewing one into garments. Each member of the royal family had a duty during the dressing room at it was decided by royal hierarchy (blood over marriage Duke/ Duchess over Baron/Baroness etc).They could take a bodice from a gown and change the ribbons, lace, etc on it and put it on a different gown and have created a totally new look. So it wasn't really a full "new" dress but she never dressed the same exact way twice until it became unfashionable when she was staying at Petit Trianon where she chose to act like a peasant and dress more simply in white, with less formal clothing.

    She didn't necessarily wear a "new" dress everyday but I've been told she didn't wear the same dress twice and that's because those kinds of gowns came in sections and were literally sewn together as she was prepped in the morning. Different sleeves might have been sewn on to a different bodice which might not have been matched with the same skirt all the time. This was all part of her morning toilette. Each night she stuck pins into the different fabric and color samples she wanted to wear the next day, so it really was all kinds of mix and match.
