Movies

There is just SO MUCH about this period and style that this is the first of quite a few articles around this topic... Still we had to start some point and here we are. Recently, Sophia Coppola's aproachment to this character (performed in the movie by Kirsten Dunst) in  Marie Antoinette drew new attention to it and The Rococo period (late 18th century) rendered really the most flamboyant, colorful and beautiful dresses in fashion history. A tight bodice right with a front stomacher to enhance women's sihouettes and ahem!... generous sexy generous breasts, along with a wide skirt with the proper side panniers and petticoat.

Hats, artificial flowers, ribbons... More and more ornaments almost sinfully. If you want a custom made  "Marie Antoinette" corset  you can order it in Bibian Blue's shop. Based in Barcelona, we previously covered this designer in an article, aside of the collection that you can find on her website, she can also make a custom order for you. I have a rococo black corset for my performances that I certainly love (pics coming soong ;-)

An affordable option is this one, the seller offers it in different colours at around 300$

I loved  GHOSTBUSTERS movie when a child (well the first part at least as I felt very dissapointed with the sequel) curiously after so long now that there are rumours of a new Ghostbusters movie on the making...  so somehow these days i've had the tune again in my head and one can imagine that pretty soon they'll be back into fashion... I think they'll work with the original cast... yay for nostalgics like me... raised in the eighties....
