Question: What are men called during the french revolution who wore white make-up and wigs?
Marie Antionette-esk, French Revolution time period. Frilly collars and stockings, beauty marks. Counts and Dukes and Countesses. What are they called?! I thought it was Aristocrats, but I'm terribly wrong!
Answer: The "fashion victims" of that time, the men who wore the fashions you describe, were called "fops" or "Macaronis".
But those who were the victims of the French Revolution were indeed the aristocrats, the titled nobility of France.
Which do you mean?
