The V & A has now issued the Press Release for the Marie Antoinette Style exhibition which opens in September.
Titled Marie Antoinette Style, it will feature 250 objects illustrating the life of “the most fashionable, scrutinised and controversial queen in history”, according to Sarah Grant, the curator.
She added: “Marie Antoinette’s name summons both visions of excess and objects and interiors of great beauty.”
The exhibition will also feature an “immersive” scent experience that will recreate the smells of the court as well as the perfume favoured by the French queen.
