I'm working on a project and need a specific photo. I'm looking for a picture of at least three people dressed up in Marie Antoinette garb -- big dress and big powdered wig. Preferably drag queens, but at this point, I'd take a shot from a movie or something with regular women in period costume.
These people will become the Powdered Donettes, a girl group in the D&D campaign I'm part of. (My DM is very open-minded. )

I found some period costumey paintings for a project I did once for a friend's retirement on the usual museum collection sites (I made her into the Queen of England). I think I still have some of them saved if you want me to email them to you...
Also I'd recommmend looking for photos from the new Marie-Antoinette movie by Sophia Coppola (with Kirsten Dunst and Jason Schwartzman).

Oooh, a painting might be even better. I don't think our world has photography yet.
And thanks for the tip about the movie. Not may pics have been released from it yet, but I've found a couple things that might work.

I tried to find some screen caps from Priscilla. Wasn't there a Marie Antoinette scene in it?

Oooh, good start. I could always clone and paste her, though I'd have to get someone much more skilled at photoshop than me to change the dress color for each version. And I'd want to whiten the hair so it looks more like a powedered wig. But I'll keep her in mind for back up. Thanks!

Nowhere near as good as MEL in the manip department but here's a try:
