    • Fabric: Opt for luxurious fabrics like silk or satin to give the gown an authentic feel. You can also add a petticoat for extra volume.
  2. Modern Accessories:

    • Smartphone: Carry a smartphone (real or a prop) to represent the modern influencer aspect. You can even create a custom phone case with a design that matches your gown.
    • Trendy Sunglasses: Choose oversized or uniquely shaped sunglasses that are popular today. Look for styles that add a fun, modern twist to the historical outfit.

    • Hair: Style your hair modernly, such as loose waves or a sleek ponytail, while incorporating elements like a decorative hairpiece or a mini crown to nod to Marie Antoinette’s iconic hairstyles.
    • Makeup: Go for a glamorous makeup with bold lipstick, shimmering eyeshadow, and perfectly contoured cheeks. You can also add some playful elements, like glitter or rhinestones.
  4. Footwear:

    • Shoes: Wear stylish heels or trendy ankle boots that complement the gown. Consider shoes with embellishments or unique designs to enhance the modern influencer vibe.
  5. Props:

    • Social Media Elements: Create props like a faux Instagram frame or a sign with popular hashtags (e.g., #LetThemEatCake, #InfluencerLife) to carry around. This adds an interactive element to your costume.
