Pink dress 1700s
Mid/late-1700s Historical Style.
If you’re having trouble with the timeline. After the Renaissance style 1300-1600, came the stiff and formal, ornate/extravagant styling called Baroque 1600-; which looked like the Three Musketeers for a while, very pilgrim-like, then a few decades later, fashion evolved into looking like Governor Swan in the first Pirates of the Caribbean film [it was a style fueled by King Louis XIV who lived 1643-1715]. After King Louis death, stylings softened into the elaborate Rococo style, 1720s, which was still ornamental and theatrically decorative.
Marie Antoinette lived 1755-1793, and her husband, king Louis XVI, had an excessively frivolous art/architecture style named after him called Louis Seize 1770- [the time was mostly famous for having tall lady wigs]. Common people looked very colonial, the American Revolution happened in the 1770s. Military uniforms were very stylish that decade. and Ostentatious fashions ended at The French Revolution 1789-1799. Thereafter, ~1795-1820, things looked very Jane Austen/Napoleonic.
Because of the tall wig on this costume, it is most likely in the 1770s European style. I made this dress and styled this wig. The little mask was bought at target years ago, and it was a coincidence that it color matched perfectly. The photo I based the dress style on is from The Great, starring Elle Fanning.
I think there's still an event in Venice where people dress up like its the 1700s and have a carnival masquerade party.
If you like historical, I also recently did a very similar Blue dress, a Hamilton Purple dress, a Lady Van Tassel dress, a Blue Polonaise dress, a Colonial Cupcake, and many regency style dresses : Green, Purple, Blue. And a few Edwardian era dresses also : Edwardian, Black Edwardian, Poppins, ect... ect.. Victorian, Renaissance. many others.
Costume consists of: Wig, Mask, Dress, jewelry/accessories
