The Victoria and Albert Museum in London have announced a big exhibition on Marie Antoinette in September 2025. Entitled Marie Antoinette Style: Shaped by the most fashionable queen in history the display is being sponsored by the footwear retailers Manolo Blahnik (who participated in the wildly popular shoe show at the Wallace Collection back in 2019).

According to the website:

A complex fashion icon, Marie Antoinette's timeless appeal is defined by her style, youth and notoriety. Explore the lasting influence of the most fashionable (and ill-fated) queen in history – with over 250 years of design, fashion, film and art.
