Schonbrunn Palace: Vienna Austria

During Fall Break, I had the privilege of going on a private tour at the Schonbrunn Palace. I was intrigued to find out that Marie Antionette was from Austrian decent-- Her mother was Maria Teresa. Many of the portraits in the Schonbrunn Palace were of Marie Antionette and of the 18th century time period. I was astonished to recognize the extravagant gowns in the photos- They were robe a la francaise gowns! I felt so educated to be able to identify a time period with fashion at the palace in Austria. I would have never guessed that I would be thinking of italian fashion as I walked through the Schonbrunn palace, but sure enough, all of the portraits radiated 18th century fashion!
