Empress Eugenie
The influence of Empress Eugenie on the fashion of her time is undeniable. Her support for Charles Frederick Worth, the first “grand-couturier” in history, the famous “political dresses” that she insisted on wearing to official events and her very good taste were the driving force behind the nascent fashion industry.
