Ooh la la: What would Marie Antoinette wear?

Sofia Coppola's 2006 film Marie Antoinette is one of my favorite movies, because of the stylish wardrobe of the cast. I mean of course there's no surprise there since Coppola is a designer for Louis Vuitton. However, as I watched the movie for the first time, I reveled in the original Material Girl's beautiful silk gowns, ornate jewels and lavish shoe choices. So, I thought to myself, surely there are fashion designers who have been influenced by Marie Antoinette's wardrobe choices. If I were to incorporate Marie Antoinette's style into a modern day wardrobe, what would I find?

In the above image, King Louis wears a dupioni silk jacket and a lace ruffle top, while the women wear large jewels, pearls and broaches. On a side note, I am loving the grey color that Louis wears. It goes perfectly with this fall's color trend :)

In order to channel Louis's courtly look, try this grey La Via 18 draped neck jacket from Saks Fifth Avenue. The Ruffle collar mirrors the collar in the man's jacket above, and like his it's in one of this seasons "it" colors!

Or try this navy Moschino Zipper Ruffled Jacket also from Saks. The zippers and color add a seasonal twist to the very traditional ruffle.

Incorporate this Lavish Antique Cuff from Forever21.com. The oversize jewels add to the look of opulence that Marie Antoinette was known for.

Or this Grand Dame Brooch Necklace also from Forever21.com. The pearls and brooches combine the brooches and pearls look that both of the women wear in the picture above.

This Extravagant Shield Ring also from Forever21.com has multiple jewels and the gilded gold color make it the perfect addition to any outfit.
