Teen Queen


Of all time, I am most fascinated with Marie Antoinette. The hair pieces of that time amaze me. During her time period wigs were very popular throughout France. Both men and women in the court wore wigs. Men wore wigs that had curls on the sides and women's wigs were elaborated and high. Wigs were expensive during those times so most royalty and others in higher society wore them. Some even wore expensive materials in their wigs such as gems, precious metals, feathers, silk and other objects. I wish I could have lived back then!
