Ahh to dress like an 18th century fashionista...

Though not one of my all time fave movies, The Duchess, staring Keira Knightley plays the role of 18th century duchess Georgiana dubbed G (gossip girl bells anyone?) by her closest friends and husband. Stuck in a 3 way triangle with her awful husband the duke, this movie chronicles her political and fashionable life as a celebrity of her time and a beloved mother. Loved the 18th century costume, especially the duchess's experiential style !
