Hello all... My name is Danielle and I am more of a lurker here on this list. My focus is more medieval than anything else but I just got home from Marie Antoinette and I was just wondering if anyone else noticed the converse sneakers in one of the shots of her shoes?

Well, Adrian did them so as far as costumes go, they are spectacular, if not accurate. He apparently used as much real 18th century lace as he could get his hands on. If I remember rightly, Norma Shearer wears a number of real diamonds in her hair, and they had to build a replica of the ballroom at Versailles...only BIGGER to accommodate the huge panniers. That's right, bigger....than Versailles.... well, it is Hollywood. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
