1780's Robe a la Circassian detail. Marie Antoinette was constantly criticized for her fashion by the same courtiers that raced to adopt them. At one point she felt so endangered politically by the critique that she was too informal in all things, especially fashion, that she banned many of her own favorite dress styles (polonaises, circassians, robes a la turks, chemise a la reine,etc) from formal court events and worked with milliner Rose Bertin to bring back modernized versions of styles worn during the Sun King's reign. Fashion became only more controversial.
