German costuming company, mostly 18th century clothes. It seems they made the dress on the cover of the Queen of Fashion book.

Chenilles et papillons
French site with 18th century clothes. This site is so amazing. The photography is gorgeous and the outfits even more so. They don’t seem to be selling anything though.
EDIT: See the comment section for more information. Chenilles et papillons do take custom orders.

Lasse Hallström’s Casanova is not fantastic, but it’s fun and charming and I liked it. Costume wise it’s pretty horrible, lots of outfits that look like cheap masquerade costumes and many ugly wigs. But there’s one exception and that’s Victoria, played by Natalie Dormer. Her outfits are beautiful and she was also by far my favourite character in this movie. I loved her. Some more pictures behind the cut.
