Baroque style

Baroque style garments were exaggerated in shape and form and elaborate on colors and textures. Accessories were also voluminous. A focal point was created in the garments with elements such as high waistlines, large collars and cuffs, and wide breeches hid the natural figure. The large collars shown in the fashion designs by Christian Lacroix and Gareth Pugh display Baroque style like the oil painting of Princess Elizabeth.
