The Story of Empress Eugenie and her Jewels

Описание к видео The Story of Empress Eugenie and her Jewels

As Empress of the French and wife of Emperor Napoleon III from 1853 until 1870, Eugénie de Montijo was the fashionable face of the Second French Empire. Despite controversies surrounding her suitability for the role, she was an icon for the flourishing luxury industries in Paris and was described as “perhaps the last Royal personage to have a direct and immediate influence on fashion.” It was her patronage that helped launch the careers of designers like Cartier and Boucheron, craftsmen like Louis Vuitton, and couturiers like Charles Frederick Worth.
