In addition, this study attempts to expect some insights of fashion on the basis of analysis. Marie Antoinette created a new trend of fashion all the time through her hatred of restricting freedom, discontentment and caprice. She created the robes a l'anglaise, a la polonaise, a la levite, chemise a la reine, and so on. Also, Marie Antoinette created a giant hair style by hiring a hairdresser named Leonard. It can be believed that even though Marie Antoinette is open to censure owing to her frivolity, vanity and extravagance, she is recognized a creator of womanish, beautiful, delicate and graceful dress and ornaments.
