Why MARIE ANTOINETTE Shoe Montage Is "Basically a Music Video" | Making a Scene

Alicia Fletcher, curator of the TIFF Cinematheque's "Make It Fashion" looks into the wardrobe of Sofia Coppola's MARIE ANTOINETTE, and breaks down the iconic fashion montage. A hedonistic, ahistorical fantasy for the ages, Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette is a high-art fashion frenzy with its frosting-hued, Rococo-inspired custom couture. Based on Antonia Fraser’s biography of France’s notorious Madame Deficit, Coppola took a “vibe” approach for her New Romantic–influenced pastiche of opulence, excess, and personal awakening. To outfit the queen who never wore the same dress twice, Coppola sought out nine-time Academy Award nominated-costume designer Milena Canonero for the 70+ gowns worn by Kirsten Dunst in the film, creating one of film history’s most celebrated costume repertoires. With Manolo Blahnik diving deep into archival research to design the film’s footwear, shoes communicate much of the film’s thesis; from the beribboned and bejeweled satin heels in the iconic “I Want Candy” montage, to the notorious pastel Converse that spurned accusations of excess and anachronism upon the film’s release, footwear had never been put on such a high pedestal. Largely disregarded in 2006 by critics and audiences, Marie Antoinette immediately became a design touchstone for the runways of the most celebrated of fashion houses, as well as the subject of that year’s September issue of Vogue, proving Coppola’s unparalleled ability to merge the sartorial with film. MAKE IT FASHION: Drawn from the catwalks of fashion’s most lauded houses as well as the independent designers who defined DIY aesthetics, Make it Fashion celebrates nearly a century of fashion history through film. From Audrey Hepburn’s iconic collaborations with Givenchy, to Prada channelled through Baz Luhrmann, to Manolo Blahnik’s interpretations of Le Grand Siècle footwear in Marie Antoinette, the fashion runway and cinema co-exist as one of the visual arts’ most mutually beneficial relationships. Make it Fashion features: Marie Antoinette (2006), Prix de beauté with Live Accompaniment (1930), Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne (1945), The Hunger (1983), Liquid Sky (1982), L'inhumaine (1924), Mahogany (1975), The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover (1989), American Gigolo (1980), Stage Fright (1950), Charade (1963), Cabaret (1962), Romeo + Juliet (1996), and Personal Shopper (2016).
