  • Title: Marie Antoinette
  • Artist: Lafosse
  • Description: "let them eat cake"
    Marie Antoinette remains infamous for her spending and frivelous lifestyle to this day.
    I didn't want to do full-on copying of a painting or outfit from the film, because frankly, I didn't want to resort to using gaia-made 17th century items. I chose pink and blue pastels, because they remind me of icing and cakes, which are fun and expensive- similer to her life. The cake is there for the same reasons. They did sometimes wear skirts of this length, so I decided for it.

  • Your interpretation of Marie Antoinette is so awesome and it is also a good depiction of how the French monarchy behaved during that time.
