Geneviève d’Ossun, born Geneviève de Gramont in Paris in 1751, was a prominent French courtier known for her service to Queen Marie Antoinette.  In 1766, she married Marquis Charles d’Ossun, which facilitated her introduction into the royal court.

D’Ossun’s significant role began on May 26, 1781, when she was appointed dame d’atour (lady of the bedchamber) to Queen Marie Antoinette. In this capacity, she was responsible for overseeing the queen’s wardrobe and dressing ceremonies. Her tenure as dame d’atour lasted until 1791, during which she attempted to manage the extravagant costs associated with the queen’s wardrobe by negotiating with merchants and advising Marie Antoinette on reducing expenses. Although initially met with resistance from the queen due to her lack of charm compared to other courtiers like Yolande de Polastron, duchesse de Polignac, she eventually gained Marie Antoinette’s trust.

Grandma's Laundry Tricks:
  • Do not Brush, Rub or Scrub the printed fabrics too hard to avoid damage to print quality.
  • Wash with similar colours to avoid staining or tint.
  • Please do not overuse the centrifuge, it only wrinkles the fabric.
  • Please do not overuse the dryer or use extrem heat, this only tears the fibres apart.
  • A dehumidifier is a great invention to dry the fabrics and clothes.
  • Dry the fabrics outdoors, if possible, but not under direct sunlight.
  • Environmentally awareness and the durability of clothing go hand in hand.
  • Do You really need to use the fabric softener or is white vinegar good enough?
