Forum Deluxe Designer Collection Marie Antoinette Costume Dress

Pink Marie Antoinette Costume

With the world coming out a bad recession, sometimes its fun to just make light of the situation with a 'let them eat cake attitude'. Plus, the French Queen who said that had a truly epic fashion sense that brings a lot of luxury into these dark times, so why not dress as Marie Antoinette for Halloween? If that sounds like your cup of tea, then read on and let's take a look at my top five favorite Marie Antoinette costumes. If you are shopping from the UK or EU, you can find amazing Marie Antoinette costumes here. US readers, let's get started!

If you want the classic look she wears in her gorgeous portraits, then take a look at the amazing Forum Deluxe Designer dress above, a beautiful white and pink ball gown with bows and lacy frills to capture the imagination. If you like the lace hand folding fan that the model is using in the picture, you can find it here. It's a great accessory for the costume in my opinion.

If on the other hand, you are more of a sexy mini-dress kind of gal, you can hit the town with the super cute Godessey costume on the right. I love the feminine colors and the very ooh-la-la patterns on the dress, it is really adorable and stylish.

You can get a matching wig for both of these costumes here. If you go for the short skirt costume, I recommend getting a petticoat to keep thte skirt nice and poofy. You can find a perfect one here

If you want to go for a period piece that is all-out and true to the time, then take a peek at the simply amazing 18th century style pink and white Baroque gown featured above. It's a very realistic piece that is bound to make anyone look drop-dead gorgeous. If you are going for this costume, I recommend picking up a hoop petticoat like this one so that the skirt keeps that billowing shape!

Masquerade Marie Antoinette Costume for Women

While many costumes like to have Marie Antoinette looking pretty in pink, that isn't all that is available. Many costumes prefer a splash of baby blue, and it looks truly beautiful!

For some regal gold combine with your baby pink, take a look at the stunning Vixen of Versailles Marie Antoinette costume on the left. Each set of this costume comes with the light pink dress with gold embroidered corset, ostrich feather hat and a petticoat to provide lift to the skirt.

Every set of this costume comes with the dress, oversized bow, the hat, leg warmers, and a lovely choker necklace. Meanwhile the one on the right comes with the dress and gloves: the matching stockings are available separately here.
