Marie Antoinette's Lilicoptère (Fancy Helicopter)
http://www.designswan.com/archives/lilicoptere-a-fancy-helicopter-inspired-by-marie-antoinette.htmlFolks that don't get art or fashion will really scratch there heads over this art exhibition
“Lilicoptère” is Lisbon-based artist Joana Vasconcelos’ interesting interpretation of what Marie Antoinette would ride in if she was alive today. Using Bell 47 helicopter as base, Vasconcelos lavishly decorated it with ostrich feathers and thousands of rhinestones (Swarovski crystals, gold leaf, industrial coating, dyed leather upholstery embossed with fine gold, Arraiolos rugs, walnut wood, wood grain painting, passementerie)."
