Virginie Girod SEASON 2023 - 2024 05:00, February 18, 2024

Do you know Marie-Antoinette’s nickname, “Madame Déficit”? Its detractors blame it for the financial abyss into which the monarchy threatens to fall. But what can the Queen spend so much money on? There is definitely someone responsible… the brilliant designer Rose Bertin!  

Next week, Virginie Girod introduces you to the mother of French luxury and haute couture, Rose Bertin.

With Marie Antoinette as muse, Rose Bertin will invent fashion…. and impact the French budget!
